Cyberpunk 2077 to get easy perk resets to get players back to Night City

Cyberpunk 2077 will make it easier for you to reset your character’s perks in the upcoming patch 1.3, according to a new blog post from developer CD Projekt Red. The new feature arrives ahead of the next-gen upgrade slated for this year and could be useful for anyone looking to get back into the game and change the way their character plays.

You can see the new feature in action in a video from the developer, which shows you’ll need to pay in-game currency to reset your perks. You can already reset your perks, but it’s quite expensive to do so – this new option seems to be a lot more affordable.

It looks like the reset feature doesn’t allow you to change your attributes (the five main traits in the game’s skill tree that house the various perks), so it doesn’t look like you can fully respect your character. But if you feel like you’ve picked the wrong perks or just want to build your character differently, the reset feature seems to offer a cheaper way to mix things up.

Patch 1.3 is also looking to make a welcome improvement to the minimap you see while driving. In the new update, the minimap appears to be zoomed in more than before. I have been driving past turns on a regular basis as they appeared with little warning on the map so this change will hopefully make it easier for you to know where you need to go.

CD Projekt Red hasn’t shared a release date for patch 1.3, but the developer promises that a full list of 1.3 changes is “coming soon”, so maybe the update is just around the corner. The studio has released numerous updates for Cyberpunk 2077 after its rocky launch, and the game’s latest roadmap (last updated July 1) says free DLC and a free next-gen console update are slated for release this year.
