Last month, CD Projekt announced the release of the second big patch announced for Cyberpunk 2077. Two weeks after this update 1.2, the developers uploaded a new patch, 1.21, and today announced the arrival of the patch 1.22.

Starting today, PC, console and Stadia players can download update 1.22, which corrects the issues identified in the last patch and corrects others on Cyberpunk 2077. CD Projekt indicates that the package aims to improve performances of the title as well as its stability. Repaid 30,000 times and sold at 13.7 million units, the title still needs to be pampered for the next-gen upgrade, and the release of extensions, which we still do not know anything about. Among the improvements to remember, we note an improvement in memory management on PS5, as well as an optimization of the use of GPU and ESRAM on Xbox One.
