Cyberpunk 2077 has been in the spotlight since its release, both for its groundbreaking storytelling and for its bugs and issues. The latest patch, version 2.01, has been announced and it aims to address a significant issue affecting PlayStation 5 players: save file corruption. However, it's important to note that while the patch offers a solution to prevent future corruption, it does not restore already corrupted save files. Let's delve into the specifics. Save Data Corruption: The Issue Players on the PlayStation 5 have faced an issue where their save files become corrupted after starting the Phantom Liberty DLC. Losing these files effectively means losing hours, sometimes days, of gameplay. CD Projekt Red, the game's developer, previously indicated that the issue was linked to saving over a base game save with a Phantom Liberty save. Patch 2.01: A Resolution in Sight Version 2.01 of Cyberpunk 2077 aims to resolve this frustrating issue. The patch increases the maximum save file size limit to accommodate the extra content in Phantom Liberty. This update will prevent future save file corruption, but it's crucial to understand that it will not restore files that are already corrupted. If you're facing this problem, the advice is to keep a working save and wait until the new patch rolls out. Additional Fixes in Patch 2.01 Apart from addressing the save file corruption issue, patch 2.01 also promises other improvements. One such improvement is related to the game's performance in Dogtown, a busy market area. Players experienced a noticeable drop in framerate, which will be optimized in the new update. Another fix involves a bug causing the main character V to die unexpectedly in "The Heist," one of the game's earlier missions. What Fans Can Expect Even as the patch promises to fix several pressing issues, it's clear that not all problems are solved. Players who have lost their progress due to corrupted files will find no solace in this update. However, the patch does make significant strides in addressing some of the key concerns that have plagued the game's reputation since its release. Final Thoughts While it's encouraging to see CD Projekt Red take steps to address some of Cyberpunk 2077's most frustrating issues, there's still room for improvement. The inability to restore already corrupted files will undoubtedly disappoint many gamers. Still, the update is a step in the right direction, setting the stage for more stable gameplay in the future.
