With a smoother and less-detailed face structure, fans were disappointed to see the result after development work of eight long years. It is all about emphasizing minute details, be the character or the environment, which CD Projekt Red initially failed to deliver.

Thanks to the 2.0 update, Silverhand absolutely looks fantastic, giving importance to real-life facial structure. The virtual Keanu Reeves now looks more real after some subtle changes. There is a closer resemblance when compared to the previous look. And the impact of this update is abundantly visible.
Fans are back for Keanu
Seeing these distinctive changes, fans have started to believe it was worth the wait. And they took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to express their delight, especially with Reeves’ upgraded look.
With all the updates Cyberpunk 2.0 has brought, a user thinks doing justice to Silverhand’s look is the biggest update.

A character like Johnny Silverhand should look a little evil.

On the other hand, this user thinks it was not a big change by the devs, and that they just added extra high-quality textures.
