▍About Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty
Phantom Liberty is a paid DLC expansion storyline added to Cyberpunk 2077, a first-person RPG set in the world of Mike Pondsmith’s Cyberpunk tabletop game.
This time during the events of 2077, V is contracted by the United States Government to embark on a growing conspiracy as a spy. The story takes place in the Pacifica Combat Zone, an area previously inaccessible with V even being involved with the FIA.
Characters like Johnny Silverhand are still returning in this DLC, suggesting that this doesn’t take place after the events of the mainline game, but rather as a side-story event and detour from V’s journey to find a way to rid themselves of the biochip in their brain.
