Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition is the complete package you’ve been waiting for

CD Projekt Red has announced that Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition, a complete version of the action-RPG for PC, will launch in December. It comes with all previously released updates and DLC, including September’s Phantom Liberty.

Cyberpunk 2077 first released for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in December 2020 and was met with harsh criticism over poor performance and a load of bugs despite CD Projekt Red’s ambitious promises. The Polish developer turned the disastrous launch into a redemption story, though, earning back some goodwill this year with the 2.0 update that overhauled many of the weaker gameplay systems and the well-received Phantom Liberty expansion. Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition includes all of those additions, so it seems like it will cap off this comeback tale when it launches for PC on December 5.

Its release is also meant to highlight the close collaboration between CD Projekt Red and Nvidia. When it comes out on December 5, the game will fully support Nvidia’s ray tracing, DLSS 3.5 ray reconstruction, DLSS frame generation and super resolution, and Nvidia Reflex technology. Nvidia says the game will work best at max setting when played on its new GeForce RTX 40 Series of graphics cards.

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition launches for PC on December 5. The base game is also available for consoles, although only the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions of the game have seen many of the improvements included. CD Projekt Red has not yet confirmed if Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition will come to consoles, so prospective players will still have to buy the base game and expansion separately on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, at laest for now.

Anthropic cracks down on video game cloning with new Claude restrictions
Claude can still help develop original games, but copying existing titles is now off the table.

AI has been making its way into video game development for a while now, but the recent developments have started raising some serious concerns. Popular games are being reverse-engineered with AI assistance, recreated for web browsers, and made playable on platforms they were never released for. Between all that, indie developers have started pulling down their demos over fears of getting copied. Anthropic has now stepped in with new restrictions for Claude Code.

The change was first spotted on X and subsequently confirmed by Anthropic's Addy Osmani. The new instructions prevent Claude from recreating specific existing games, even if they are renamed or presented as original projects. Users can still make original games, work on games within a genre, and use their own designs and assets.

Phantom Blade Zero hands-on: An extraordinary game with unbelievable combat that I can’t get enough of
Every fight feels like a beautifully choreographed martial arts movie, except I'm the one controlling every move.

We have had a considerable number of high-profile game releases this year, but none so far have had as much hype behind them as Phantom Blade Zero. The source of all that hype was a 2023 trailer highlighting its fluid kung-fu-derived sword combat. Considering that, at the time of writing this piece, there are over 700,000 concurrent players on Steam alone, on a weekday no less, I think it's safe to say that the hype has converted into gamers actually showing up for the game. I have sunk around 10 hours into this game today, and so far, it has been nothing short of an absolute masterclass in action combat.
