The Cyberpunk 2077 Expansion Pack is not compatible with PS4 or Xbox One.

What to look forward to: CD Projekt Red’s first “DLC” for Cyberpunk 2077 was a big disappointment, consisting of only a few cosmetic changes and very little new content. Luckily, CDPR is working on a real expansion pack and finally released some details and a teaser for it today.
As we reported earlier, Cyberpunk 2077’s first story expansion is still a long way off, it’s scheduled for next year. However, that’s all we know about the upcoming content release – so far.
On Monday, CD Projekt Red released a one-minute teaser trailer for Cyberpunk 2077’s first story expansion, Phantom Liberty (above). The teaser visuals are mostly cinematic, with brief glimpses of the gameplay. However, it does not reveal much of the storyline. All we get is V taking an oath to serve the “New United States of America”, which Johnny Silverhand says is a “bad idea”, duplicating some action sequences.
One scene shows what looks like several augmented Secret Service agents lying dead on and around the seal of the President of the United States of America – possibly in Airforce One, but it’s hard to tell.
A glowing YouTube description states that Phantom Liberty is “an expansion of the Cyberpunk 2077 spy thriller set in a brand new area of Night City.” Thus, players get a new story and missions, as well as a whole unexplored part of the map.
Phantom Liberty will only be available for PS5, XBSX, PC and Stadia. Notably, the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles are missing from the trailer list, a fact that CDPR didn’t mention when it first unveiled the expansion in April. However, this shouldn’t come as a big shock.
At the time of its release, CP2077 was mostly an unplayable “burning trash can” on the latest generation of consoles. The studio has been hard at work releasing patches to at least make the PS4 and Xbone versions passable, but the increased work and the risk of last-gen-compatible DLC failing may not be worth the studio’s effort.
The game’s first expansion is already facing a launch window more than two years after release. Avoiding the difficulty of creating a bug-free version for older consoles is probably in CDPR’s best interest, especially since one recent update to the core game has locked it out for those unfortunate enough to have a PS4 disc version.
