Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.12 Drops With Bug Fixes and PC/Steam Deck Improvements

by Ali Haider

Patch 2.12 has been released for Cyberpunk 2077 and its expansion Phantom Liberty. This update focuses on addressing the key issues reported by the players following the previous Patch 2.11 and introduces targeted improvements and bug fixes for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S platforms.

The patch brings several PC-specific adjustments. These include enhanced key binding functionality for AZERTY keyboards, collaboration with Intel to resolve stuttering issues related to the “Prioritize P-Cores” option, and a fix for a crash associated with Razer Chroma enabled devices. Additionally, graphical improvements and crash fixes, including better NPC hair rendering with Ray Tracing and a solution for crashes on Steam Deck when Ray Tracing is enabled, are part of this patch.

For the Xbox platform, the patch addresses a critical issue where the game could become stuck in an infinite loading loop, hang, or crash when loading certain saves. Across all platforms, the update fixes several gameplay and progression issues. These include inaccessible menus, inventory, stash, holocalls, and fast travel. It also updates the Sonic Shock quickhack description to accurately reflect its behavior, improves controller cursor visibility in menus, and resolves specific mission-related bugs that hindered progress in quests like “New Dawn Fades,” “I Can See Clearly Now,” and “Riders on the Storm.”
