It appears that CD Projekt Red is following through with its intentions to be more thorough about forthcoming features for Cyberpunk 2077. The developer stepped forward days after a massive leak revealed three DLC content packs scheduled for 2021. Surprisingly, according to a representative for CD Projekt Red, the names of the upcoming content packs were confirmed to not be DLCs for Cyberpunk 2077.

The leaks popped up on the Cyberpunk 2077 subreddit in the form of images of a now inaccessible Add-on page for Cyberpunk 2077 on the Epic Games Store. Appearing after patch 1.2, the screenshot contained a series of blank listings that alluded to content speculated to have been cut from the game. For months now, players were under the assumption that CD Projekt Red would release the cut content in the form of DLC, although apparently, that may have never been the case.

Some of the names appear to be pretty straightforward and are essentially cut content that players missed out on at launch, while others appear to focus on the expansion of content and features already in-game. According to Redditor PricklyAssassin, CD Projekt Red is holding off on any mention of expansions despite working on them, which falls in line with its recent marketing campaign.

Per the screenshots, here were the Cyberpunk 2077 Epic Store listings:

• Ripperdocs Expansion
• Body Shops Expansion
• Fashion Forward
• Gangs of Night City
• Body of Chrome
• Rides of the Dark Future
• The Relic
• Neck Deep
• Night City Expansion
• Expansion Pass

Of all things, the greatest implication from this announcement is that all of the DLC - even the ones suspected to come with a heavy amount of content, will be available for free. Even more so, some titles like "The Relic" and "Night City Expansion" are incredibly speculative as to what the content behind the title may bring. Much like The Witcher 3, CD Projekt Red plans to combine free, smaller content releases with larger, paid expansions, and as none of the above are DLC, it also especially leaves the question of what the developer has up its sleeve in terms of its actual DLC.

What is becoming clear is that Cyberpunk 2077 won't be another Anthem. CD Projekt Red has a lot in store for the future of Cyberpunk 2077, even if that means keeping the player base in the dark. Granted, as long as gamers can finally venture around a fully-fleshed out Night City without any game-breaking bugs, it likely isn't too bad of a trade-off.

Cyberpunk 2077 is available now on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One, with PS5 and Xbox Series X/S support currently in development.
