Written by Andrew Hammel

Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.3 adds new vehicles, gameplay systems, visual tools, and platform support. It goes live on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S on July 17, 2025. A Switch 2 version will follow later as part of the Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition.

This guide covers every major feature in the Cyberpunk 2.3 update.

New Vehicles and AutoDrive

AutoDrive is a new autonomous driving feature. Hold H (PC) or Left Stick (console) while on a road to activate it. It will drive you to your pinned marker or current job. AutoDrive shuts off in combat or if the car takes major damage.
