The Ultimate Guide to Cyberpunk 2077 Updates 2.00 & 2.01 (PC & Elamigos Edition)

Introduction

Cyberpunk 2077 has undergone a radical transformation. The release of Update 2.0, followed closely by the critical hotfix 2.01, represents the largest structural overhaul the game has received since launch. For players utilizing the Elamigos release (or similar pre-installed/repack editions), updating the game to these versions requires a specific approach to ensure save file compatibility and mod stability.

This guide covers everything you need to know: from the technical installation process for non-Steam versions to the massive gameplay changes you need to master. Cyberpunk 2077 update 2.00 - 2.01 -Elamigos Upd...

Part 1: Technical Setup (The "Elamigos" Update Process)

If you are playing on a DRM-free version (such as the Elamigos release), you cannot simply click "Update" inside a launcher like Steam or GOG Galaxy. You must manually patch the game files.

The Big Picture: 2.00 vs. 2.01

• Update 2.00 (Phantom Liberty prep): Complete rework of stamina, cyberware capacity, new skill trees, vehicle missiles, and a smarter NCPD.
• Update 2.01 (Hotfix): Stability, quest blockers, and performance fixes. No new features—just polish.

New Content

• New Missions and Side Gigs: Additional content has been added to expand the game's story and side activities.
• New Items and Upgrades: A variety of new items, vehicles, and upgrade paths have been introduced.

What “ElAmigos” / cracked repack releases typically do

• Remove DRM (Denuvo/other protection) and create a packaged executable that allows the game to run without an official license check.
• Compress and repack game files (sometimes re-encoding textures/audio) to reduce download size.
• Include a pre-applied crack (exe replacement or loader) and often a “NOCD” or similar loader.
• Occasionally bundle unofficial patches, trainers, or modified binaries to bypass online checks or enable cheats.

Final Verdict

The Elamigos team has once again delivered a clean, working patch. Update 2.01 is what 2.00 should have been at launch – a stability layer. For repack users, the installation is straightforward as long as you follow the steps. The Ultimate Guide to Cyberpunk 2077 Updates 2

3. Critical Warning: Mod Users

If you used mods on previous versions (especially the Cyber Engine Tweaks or appearance mods), you must remove them before updating.

1. Delete the bin, engine, and r6 folders in your game directory (backup your config files if necessary).
2. Verify the game runs vanilla.
3. Wait for mod authors to update their tools for 2.01 before re-installing mods.
