‘Cyberpunk 2077' Update 2.3 Easter Eggs Hint At Casino Addition
Cyberpunk 2077 While I'm not really convinced to reinstall Cyberpunk 2077 just to mess around with a few new cars and photo mode features after Update 2.3, there are some curious things that players have found hidden and changed with the launch of the new patch. We see this pretty often, stealth, fun things added to the game like say, a secret Balatro quest. But this? This is something else, and it feels like it at least could be teasing something big. It appears that Update 2.3 added a dozen and a half new ads that are promoting a casino in Pacifica, the region where Phantom Liberty takes place. There was, of course, a casino that was part of a mission in that campaign, and there is also a defunct casino on the map, the North Oak Casino and Resort, that lies dormant and was not used. New billboard The idea here is that a future plan for Cyberpunk may be to open up that casino in a future patch, which would be actual new content rather than just adding new car and photo and cosmetic things.

And in the files, there are actually 18 new banners you can find: Cyberpunk 2077 It would seem that this is about a Pacifica casino, not one of the other ones, but if this is planned for the future, yet again, I warn people to manage expectations. I can see them adding in the Phantom Liberty mission-based casino area and then unlocking something like say, a number of gambling minigames that you can spend your hard earned cash on. Roulette, Poker, Blackjack, Slots, whatever. I do not think this would be say, some giant mission chain involving a casino robbery or whatever high expectations people may have for it. Adding a way to gamble (and a new place to take photos!) seems more along the lines of something a patch 2.4 might offer. Though opening up a whole new area like this would be significant in and of itself. There is a good amount of space between these updates, but at this point it's pretty clear that we should never believe that CDPR is done adding things to Cyberpunk 2077. And they are also pretty clear about teasing future content (a new car in this patch was teased in a Cyberpunk comic, for instance). I do expect something to come of this.

Scheduled to release on July 17, the game has been promised to deliver smooth performance, sharp visuals, and more on Macs powered by the M-series chips. Notably, this is the complete edition of the open-world role-playing game (RPG) first launched in 2020, and it includes all post-release content, such as the Phantom Liberty expansion. On Mac, Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition will support MetalFX upscaling for enhanced performance and will support spatial audio. The game will also support tracked spatial audio with Apple AirPods by default. Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition: Availability and eligibility The Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition will be released on July 17, and it will be available for purchase from the App Store for Mac, Steam, and the Epic Games Store. Consumers running any Mac, including iMac, MacBook Air, Mac mini, MacBook Pro, and Mac Studio, which is powered by Apple M1 chip or later, with at least 16GB of unified memory, and running on macOS 15.5 or later firmware, will be able to run this game on their system. Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition: How will it make the most of Macs? CD Projekt Red has confirmed that Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition will be fully supported on Macs powered by Apple Silicon. This version includes all the post-launch updates released since the game's debut in 2020, including the Phantom Liberty expansion. On Macs, the game uses Apple's Metal graphics framework to improve visual quality and performance. By integrating native support for Metal and using features like MetalFX upscaling, the game can maintain higher frame rates while reducing the load on the system. This helps deliver smoother gameplay, even at more demanding graphics settings. In an upcoming update, the game will also support new Metal 4 features such as MetalFX Frame Interpolation and MetalFX Denoising. Frame Interpolation works by generating extra frames between existing ones to create more fluid motion, while Denoising enhances image clarity during real-time ray tracing on higher graphics settings. Together, these additions will allow the game to reach up to 120 frames per second on supported Macs, offering a better visual experience for players without compromising performance.

'Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition' Releases For Apple Silicon Macs On 17 July
Wake up, samurai, a new platform of gamers are about to burn Night City, as CD Projekt RED has announced the release of Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition , which brings both the base game and its Phantom Liberty expansion in one complete package to Macs with Apple Silicon on 17 July 2025. Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition on Mac will also include all free content and updates released thus far, bringing its futuristic world to the platform for the first time. Utilising the power of Apple's Metal framework, the game will not only include modern gaming technologies like frame generation, but also a suite of Mac-exclusive features. Using the 'For this Mac' graphical presets, the game will be optimised for each Apple Silicon Mac model, providing players with a smooth gameplay experience across a wide range of hardware, from the earlier M1 model Macs to the latest M4 chips, MacBooks, iMacs or Mac Studios. To further ensure smooth performance, the game will make use of Apple's proprietary MetalFX upscaling, which uses spatial and temporal upscaling technologies in tandem to render high-resolution scenes from a lower resolution base, improving image quality while providing a substantial boost in framerates. Third-party technologies such as AMD's FSR upscaling and frame generation will also be available, with both being optimised for Apple Silicon. Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition will also feature support for Apple peripherals, offering built-in head-tracked Spatial Audio exclusive to AirPods users, alongside compatibility with the Magic Mouse and Trackpad, with Apple XDR display users also receiving dynamically calibrated HDR support. Apart from these features, the game is set to receive further updates later this year, adding Metal 4 features teased during its showcase at WWDC 2025, such as MetalFX Frame Interpolation, which further generates an intermediate frame for every two input frames, and when paired with MetalFX Upscaling, allows the game to hit a solid 120fps. MetalFX Denoising is also incoming, which will enable real-time path tracing on the game's highest quality graphics settings. Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition will launch on 17 July 2025 on the Mac App Store, Steam, the Epic Games Store, and GOG.
