The News, Explained
On October 21, 2026, CD PROJEKT RED published the changes planned for Cyberpunk 2077’s Edgerunners 2 Update, version 2.5. Expanded mod support comes with a save-specific condition for console achievements and trophies. Mods are player-created additions that change the game. Source
The mod.io-powered feature lets players browse and install mods from a selected catalog in the game menu. The developer says more will follow over time. Named platforms are PC, Mac, PS5, PS5 Pro, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2. Source
The announced rollout differs by platform and storefront: Source
| Platform or storefront | Announced update timing |
|---|---|
| PC; Mac via Steam, GOG or Epic Games Store; PS5; Xbox Series X|S | October 22 |
| Nintendo Switch 2; Mac App Store version | In the following days |
Load Game will mark modded saves with a dedicated icon. The developer says achievements and trophies cannot be earned while playing on console from a modded save. Choosing which saved game to load therefore matters alongside choosing a mod. Source
The menu will also group saves by separate playthroughs, combining a way to distinguish runs with a marker for modded status. Source
OYOPICK’s Take
Finding mods inside the game could make player-created changes more approachable for console users. Here, customization and achievement collecting meet at the save file. That condition helps frame a choice between exploring changes and progressing with achievement records.
We hope the interface makes the save marker and achievement status easy to understand together, as well as showing the mod catalog. Understanding the consequence before loading a save could make the decision to use the new feature clearer.
