Update: the global director of CD Projekt Red responded to a FORBES article claiming that this leak "makes no sense". Therefore, consider it a false rumor.

This thing does not add up. Sorry, Paul.

  Cyberpunk 2077 remains scheduled for release on next-generation consoles and there are some rumors suggesting that this will be the perfect time to introduce a large set of new features to the game. The most recent rumor should be taken with a tiny grain of salt, since the source is not the most reliable one. Details about an expansion, a massive patch and the anime Netflix, are some of the highlights of this alleged leak. Check out all the leaked details below:

• The game's arrival on next-generation consoles, as well as patch 1.5, will be treated as a minor re-release of the game. This new version will be called Cyberpunk 2077: Samurai Edition
• ‎CDPR will host a major livestream around February to reveal the patch, the first expansion, and more details about the anime
• New patch features: barbershops, garage, improved AI, transmog system, a complete rebalance of the loot system, and a new user interface
• The promised free DLC will include 4 new weapons, new game +, apartment customization, and new gigs
• Tons of small things like Judy and Panam sending you more text messages over the course of the game
• The first expansion will take place in Pacifica
• You will walk around and do missions in what is called a "combat zone"
• The conquest of the combat zone is being fought over by two new gangs: the Bozos (violent clown psychopaths with a sick sense of humor) and a gang called Slaughterhouse (violent, psychopathic fascists)
• The combat zone looks very inspired by the game S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
• Cyberpunk will have its own Gwent as a mini-game, and this involves going into cyberspace, controlling and collecting monsters that you can send into JRPG-like battles, and there will also be multiplayer. One of the monsters looks like a reaper
• The anime called Cyberpunk 2077: Edgerunners is made by Studio Trigger with writing and story done by CDPR itself. It looks extremely insane. Beautiful 2D animation reminiscent of Akira.
• Another expansion is in early planning stages, but will only be released if the first expansion is a success

It is important to say that all this information is nothing more than 4Chan rumors shared on Reddit (where it's getting a lot of traction, by the way) but anyway, among the plans of CD Projekt for the first few months of 2022, there is definitely a new patch and the long-awaited graphics update for the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions of Cyberpunk 2077.
