Cyberpunk 2077 for Xbox One owners will get a free Xbox Series X upgrade

With Cyberpunk 2077 set to release this September for Xbox One and Xbox Series X later this year, CD Projekt announced via the game’s official Twitter account that those who purchase the game on Xbox One will get a free Xbox Series X upgrade.

Per Tweet, “Gamers should never be forced to purchase the same game twice or pay for upgrades. Owners of #Cyberpunk2077 for Xbox One will receive the Xbox Series X upgrade for free when available.”

It’s now safe to assume that Cyberpunk 2077 will be getting a Xbox Series X version when it launches Holiday 2020. Though, it is unclear whether the Xbox One version will get patched for it to be played on Xbox Series X or the game will pretty much have a separate release.
