Console and desktop players can browse and install community-made mods directly from the in-game interface, though console saves running mods cannot unlock trophies or achievements. Five new Glamdoc parlors offer cosmetic reskins for arm cyberware like Mantis Blades and Gorilla Arms, while console editions finally receive a field-of-view slider. [2][3]

Tie-in content includes Clampdown, a prequel quest to the new anime that awards character gear, alongside a fresh radio station and a lore-focused guided tour of Night City. On the graphics side, the studio introduced support for Nvidia DLSS 4.5 Multi Frame Generation and visual enhancements for the PlayStation 5 Pro. [1][2][3]
