The latest batch of Cyberpunk 2077 patch notes is all about fixing bugs and various issues across all platforms. And while most of the bug fixes are applicable to every version of the game, there are some platform-specific ones to look out for as well.
Cyberpunk 2077 patch 1.52 is available now on all platforms, but don't expect any new content as this one's all about smoothing out some of the game's more persisting rough edges. The game launched back in December 2020 to largely positive reviews but was met with a ton of backlash about its performance on consoles. Patch 1.52 brings about a host of new fixes for bugs related to gameplay, quests, the open world, the UI, and in the visuals department.
The problems fixed in the patch range from minor, like broken animations, to significant, as in the case of instant death as a result of walking into a glitchy elevator during the Automatic Love quest. Another fix apparently stops instances where the recon grenade highlights non-hostile crowd NPCs, which will surely let all of Cyberpunk's AI people breathe a sigh of relief. Here's the complete list of changes straight from CD Projekt Red:
