CD PROJEKT RED has released a new hotfix for Cyberpunk 2077. Hotfix 1.22 includes GPU and ESRAM optimizations and improvements (Xbox One), memory management improvements (PS4), and a fix for a soft lock issue (Stadia). It also addresses clipping of NPC clothes, improperly aligned subtitles in the Arabic version, and various quest and open-world fixes.

Quests & Open World

The Metro: Memorial Park dataterm should now properly count towards the Frequent Flyer achievement.
Fixed glitches in Johnny’s appearance occurring after buying the Nomad car from Lana.
Fixed an issue in Gig: Until Death Do Us Part where it was not possible to use the elevator.
Fixed an issue in Epistrophy where the player could get trapped in the garage if they didn’t follow the drone and ran into the control room instead.
Added a retrofix for the issue we fixed in 1.21, where Takemura could get stuck in Japantown Docks in Down on the Street – for players who already experienced it before update 1.21 and continued playing until 1.22, Takemura will now teleport to Wakako’s parlor.

As a child of the 70’s I was part of the many who became enthralled by the video arcade invasion of the 1980’s. Saving money from various odd jobs I purchased my first computer from a friend of my dad, a used Atari 400, around 1982. Eventually it would end up being a lifelong passion of upgrading and modifying equipment that, of course, led into a career in IT support.
