The latestCyberpunk 2077 2.1 updatequietly added the ‘sad Keanu’ meme to Night City.
Update 2.1,Cyberpunk 2077’s final significant patch, went live yesterday, December 5, introducing a full-on metro system for Night City’s sprawling masses. It turns out the new metro system is hiding a neat new feature: a tribute to the sad Keanu Reeves meme of many moons ago.
Famed musician Johnny Silverhand can now apparently be found rocking the sad Keanu pose on the Night City metro system. He’s even surrounded by fake pigeons to properly complete the meme look. Those are fake pigeons because in Cyberpunk 2077’s world, all birds were wiped exterminated with 18 miles of Night City because of a deadly disease spreading among them. Hey, the more you know.
In case you’re thinking this is a hoax, Cyberpunk 2077 quest director Pawel Sasko poked a little fun at the whole thing in the tweet just below. Who can blame Cyberpunk 2077’s developers for wanting to have a little silly fun at the end of an seven-year development cycle?
As we mentioned previously though, this is to be Cyberpunk 2077’s last big update with new features. The likes of new romantic interactions, personal radio, gang missions, and driving improvements will round out CD Projekt’s game with a bow. After update 2.0 and Phantom Liberty delivered huge new overhauls earlier this year, it’s time for theCyberpunk 2077 sequel’s development to begin.
