Just watched the stream. Next gen updates for PS5, Xbox Series S/X are live right now. Possibly also for PC users -- the patch 1.5 I mean -- my Galaxy just started downloading something.

47.09 GB on PC.

Not sure why this update even exists for PC or is so large. Other than a few new weapons, and a new apartment for V, it doesn't add anything for PC. This isn't the new DLC that has been promised. Assuming at this point CDPR has scrapped any new story content and this is the last of the updates the game will get? Pretty disappointing.

Patch notes: https://www.cyberpunk.net/en/news/41435/patch-1-5-next-generation-update-list-of-changes

But they mentioned a lot of the changes are missing because they didn't want to clutter the patch notes.

And they mentioned some "secrets", so probably a lot of easter eggs.

It's called the "next gen update" but comes with like 5-6 free DLCs and huge QoL, balancing and roleplaying additions to all versions. The DLCs add new apartments, apartment options, gear and customization features so that's probably why.

That said, I don't know why but I can't seem to get it to download. The Galaxy background changed, I've tried restarting Galaxy and hitting the Check for Updates button, but nothing is happening. Probably the overflow of new downloads.

I just clicked on "Check for Updates" and it started downloading immediately. See if that works for you, too. If not, it could certainly be server overload. Good luck!

Yeah, I tried it, must just be server overload. Hopefully it works soon, I was hoping to get it downloading while I did other stuff!

I've had trouble before so this time I pre-emptively did what helped me in the past:
Exit Galaxy completely (not only X in the corner which leaves it running on the background but actual Gear logo > Exit,) and when I started Galaxy again it started downloading.

The patch notes look very interesting.Bravo!!!

I just hope I don`t have to rebind all keys again ;-)

All the best

I also tried that but it didn't seem to help, sadly.

EDIT: It's downloading now. Guess it was just busy servers.

Just updated and now the game will not launch at all!!

same for me
"Whoa! Cyberpunk 2077 has flatlined"

"Error reason: Unhandled exception

Same here, after the update I am unable to even launch the game, it flatlines right away.
