CD Projekt Red had intended to release Cyberpunk 2077's biggest patch yet in the form of Patch 1.2 this February, but the developer has revealed that it needs a little more time to get it ready for launch.
Taking to Twitter, CDPR explained that the extensive scope of the update, along with a recent cyber attack on the studio, has meant that the team hasn't been able to meet its original February release window:
News of the aforementioned cyber attack was reported by the studio back in early February, in which some of its internet systems were found to have been compromised, and source codes were reportedly later leaked online.
As mentioned above, CDPR now intends to release Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 1.2 in the second half of March, so fingers crossed the update doesn't suffer any other delays over the next few weeks.

I bet the hack had nothing to do with it. They just want longer because they want to make sure this patch really fixes all of the performance issues.
So massive backlash, targeted by hackers because of their board decisions.... safe to say we won't see any game launch like Cyberpunk ever again or at least for a very long time?
Is this game ever going to be ready? I still have it sealed in my game case.. Waiting for the best version of it to be available..
My first question will always be "have they fixed the AI and transporting police". Those sound terrible and worryingly don't seem like defects to me. Watching the GTAV vs Cyberpunk on YouTube makes Cyberpunk gameplay look terrible in comparison. And thats a game from 2 generations ago.
I was waiting until it was patched to a decent standard until I played it. I think in the meantime I’ll just uninstall it and save the hard drive space.
Utter shambles.
They lost my money when all the poor reviews came out.
If the next gen reviews are amazing then maybe but I doubt they will be
I’m still waiting for the Series X patch. Could be waiting a while.
At this point no point in rushing anything, heck rushing the development is how they got in the situation they got in.
By the time this mess gets fixed and the dlc comes out, no one will give a sh*t anyway.
@Insightful That's probably the best outcome for everyone....
I enjoyed the game right up to a game killing bug and just couldn't make myself start over. Over all the game was disappointing I let myself get hyped big time and that's my fault for buying in. I still had fun just not as much as I thought.
I loved The Witcher, and I definitely bought into most the hype surrounding Cyberpunk. I never thought it would be the greatest game ever, especially as features kept getting cut, but I still really wanted to buy this on day one. The only thing that saved me was that I wanted to wait until there was a Series X version before I bought it. Dodged a bullet, for sure. This will now end up being an impulse buy during the annual Summer or Winter sales XBox always has.
Nice they want to launch an update properly. Shame they didn't feel the same way about the actual game.
