Phantom Liberty embodies the best of Cyberpunk 2077 for a thrilling RPG-shooter with an evocative story, compelling side content, and unforgettable conclusions.
The appeal of Night City was in its impressive scope and dazzling visuals which painted a bleak neon-lit future dictated by technological exploitation and unfettered capitalism. Within that were tragic, human stories to pull at your heartstrings, and a whole lot of violent action often perpetuated by its gameplay systems. But what if you took the best parts of Cyberpunk 2077 and condense them into a tight, cohesive package for a heart-wrenching political action thriller? That's what Phantom Liberty does as an expansion that seamlessly fits into the original game.
It showcases the full potential of Cyberpunk 2077 with a new, captivating story that's intimate, raw, and earnest--told through a strong cast of characters. Its narrative ambitions are contextualized in the missions that drive the plot, which contain top-tier action setpieces to let the revamped RPG mechanics sing and a variety of tense and well-crafted non-combat scenarios to bring it together. More than anything, Phantom Liberty goes above and beyond with not one, but two finales that are wildly different yet equally stunning--hell, even three when counting the new ending for the original story. It's a fantastic mix of nearly everything you could ask of Cyberpunk. And after taking 30 hours to experience all of its content, I just can't imagine Cyberpunk 2077 without Phantom Liberty.
