A couple of cybernetically-enhanced fans managed to catch a glimpse of the prematurely uploaded pre-order page for The Phantom Liberty on GOG, fueling speculation and anticipation for the upcoming DLC even further.

The page, which was spotted by someone on Reddit, is no longer accessible at the moment. However, the observer noted that it had a projected price point of €29.99 for the European market. This price suggests a parallel of $29.99 across the pond, which is in line with CD Projekt RED's previous statement about Phantom Liberty being CDPR's priciest expansion to date.

The last we heard of Phantom Liberty was from its initial reveal last year such as its introduction of a new district of Night City. The expansion will introduce a new character, Reed, who is played by Idris Elba, as well.

With these exciting tidbits, fans are awaiting details that CD Projekt RED promises to unveil about Phantom Liberty soon.

While the anticipation for Phantom Liberty is high, there's an undercurrent of caution among gamers who still remember the tumultuous launch of the base game. The controversy surrounding the premature release of Cyberpunk 2077 has left a bittersweet taste in the mouths of audiences, making some leery about pre-ordering the new DLC. However, others assert that CDPR has been working diligently to rebuild trust and goodwill among its player base since then, and the DLC may be their redemption.

For what it's worth, players who have revisited Cyberpunk 2077 in recent times have discovered a newfound appreciation for the game. While the scars of the troubled launch remain, some fans are hopeful that it has learned from its past mistakes.

The upcoming massive expansion remains a testament to the possibilities the world of Cyberpunk 2077 can still offer.

However, there are some who are curious that CD Projekt RED referred to the Phantom Libery DLC as "Episode 1". This may mean that CDPR might not deliver the full story at once but over a period of time. It's an exciting prospect that indicates a shift in CDPR's strategy.

In all of this, what's certain is that Phantom Liberty represents a crucial juncture for Cyberpunk 2077, especially as CDPR is preparing to work on the game's sequel by next year.

The success of Phantom Liberty could usher in a new beginning for the budding franchise, helping restore faith in CDPR and its massive investment.

Whether you're a fan who enjoyed the game despite its early flaws, a detractor waiting for the game to deliver on its initial promises, or a newcomer curious about the expansion, all eyes are now on CDPR and the Phantom Liberty DLC.
