Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt Red has released Patch 1.6, dubbed the Edgerunners update after the upcoming anime series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, across all available platforms. The release of Patch 1.6 follows today's Night City Wire livestream that focused on the anime from Studio Trigger, which is set to release on September 13th, as well as the content of the patch.
As the name implies, it should be no surprise that the update brings certain bits of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners into the video game proper. For example, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners protagonist David Martinez's jacket is now in the video game as is a shotgun used by a character from the show. That's not all the update includes, however, as a transmog wardrobe feature is in Cyberpunk 2077 now among much more.
Edgerunners Update (Patch 1.6) is now live! ⚡ With this update we focused on bringing various fixes and improvements, as well as adding new Edgerunners-inspired content to the game – including new missions, clothing, and weapons.

You can check out the full highlights from the patch notes for Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 1.6, the Edgerunners Update, straight from the source below:
Wardrobe allows you to change the appearance of your outfit without changing your armor stats. You can create up to 6 outfits using the pieces of clothing you own by accessing the wardrobe in any of V's apartments and safehouses and then switch between them in the Inventory panel.
Fixers will give you 3 new gigs:
Gig type: SOS: Merc Needed
Gig type: Search and Recover
Added a Cross-progression feature between platforms. Your latest saves will be automatically uploaded to the cloud so you can continue where you left off easily on other platforms. Cross-progression provides the latest save for every save type (Quick, Auto, Manual, etc.). Feature becomes available after you log in with your account (from Main Menu or the in-game Load Game menu). Cross-progression may be limited when it comes to console versions with regional restrictions, you can find more details here.
Added some secrets related to the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners anime series to be discovered in Night City, including new equipment and new Photo Mode features.
You can now play a brand new mini game using arcade machines located in Night City, including the ones in the Northside, Japantown and The Glen apartments. Climb the leaderboard to earn special prizes including cash and items! If you're enjoying Roach Race in Cyberpunk 2077, check out the mobile version for Android and iOS. Remember that your high scores in the in-game and mobile versions are separate, though.
You can now take photos of Nibbles in Photo Mode! While in Photo Mode, go to the "Pose" tab and choose Nibbles in the "Character" section. Please note that this option becomes available only after you invite Nibbles to V's apartment.
The following changes take effect only on the PC version of the game and once the REDmod is installed.
As noted above, Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 1.6 is now available on all platforms. In general, Cyberpunk 2077 itself is available for the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Google Stadia, and PC.
