CD Projekt Red has revealed that the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 expansion will have a bigger budget than The Witcher 3 expansions.
Phantom Liberty will have the “biggest budget” ever allocated for any expansion by CDPR. To be fair, I assume a large chunk of the budget has been spent on acquiring Idris Elba (as well as Keanu Reeves).
Introducing Idris Elba as Solomon Reed, an FIA Agent for the NUSA. Team up and take on an impossible mission of espionage & survival in #PhantomLiberty, a spy-thriller expansion for #Cyberpunk2077 set in an all new district of Night City.

As reported by Push Square, the previously allocated budget record from CDPR apparently belonged to Blood and Wine of The Witcher 3. However, it’s worth keeping in mind that the PR director, Radek Grabowski implied that budget does not mean scope. So make of that what you will.
The Phantom Pain expansion will release this year for Cyberpunk 2077 for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Sadly, this expansion is coming to last-gen consoles.
