An Ultimate Edition of Cyberpunk 2077 could be in the works if a recently published rating from Europe's PEGI is to be believed. CD Projekt Red launched both its 2.0 update for Cyberpunk 2077 and its Phantom Liberty expansion recently, dramatically updating the first-person RPG. While no further major updates are planned, CD Projekt Red may still have some ideas for how to repackage Cyberpunk 2077 going into 2023's holiday season.

Cyberpunk 2077's definitive collection may be arriving surprisingly soon. A filing published by the European rating board PEGI was made public for Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition recently. The rating included notes for mature content, including violence, bad language, and sex. It also listed the Xbox Series X/S as a release platform, and put December 31, 2023, as its release date. It should be noted that the filing wouldn't mean it's not coming to other platforms like PC and PS5. The release date is likely also temporary.

As for whether a Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition makes sense, that's a question consumers would have to decide. An edition that combines both the Cyberpunk 2077 base game and its Phantom Liberty expansion does make sense. It also makes sense to create a definitive package if CD Projekt Red isn't planning to release any future content for Cyberpunk 2077. In those regards, a Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition makes perfect sense.

What's less certain is if it makes sense to release a Cyberpunk 2077 definitive edition so quickly after putting out the game's expansion. Phantom Liberty came out one week ago and remains full-priced at $29.99. Releasing an Ultimate Edition relatively soon, perhaps discounting the two products compared to their individual prices, may be looked at negatively by players.

Compared to Cyberpunk 2077's prior controversies, the quick release of a definitive edition is hardly worth mentioning. If anything, it'd be a great opportunity for those who waited for CD Projekt Red to patch Cyberpunk 2077. It'd encourage players not to pre-order, to ensure games are finished and functional when they do play. That's a healthy approach. Whether CD Projekt Red is genuinely working on a Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition is yet to be confirmed, though.

Cyberpunk 2077 is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
