"Patch 1.5 is coming soon to PC, Stadia, and consoles," said CD Projekt Red.
"It brings various improvements to the game, numerous quest and gameplay fixes, as well as a number of free DLCs. On top of that, it contains the next-generation update, which will allow Cyberpunk 2077 to take advantage of the additional power of the Xbox Series X and S and PlayStation5 hardware."

"For those who are playing the game on next-gen consoles via backwards compatibility, we are planning the free, next-gen update for Cyberpunk 2077 on Xbox Series consoles, and PlayStation 5, this year. We're aiming for the second half of the year and we’ll reveal more when we have more to share."
It's worth noting that the Cyberpunk 2077 next-gen upgrade will be free if you already own the game on last-gen consoles. When originally confirming the Xbox Series X Cyberpunk 2077 upgrade, CD Projekt Red said (via Twitter) that "gamers should never be forced to purchase the same game twice or pay for upgrades," and we've seen nothing to indicate that's going to change.
