The Cyber Heist DLC also introduces melee weapons in The Ascent, so those who want to swing a bat at the baddies can now certainly do so. Players can venture forth into new overworld locations owned by the Malhorst-Gelb group as well.

Aside from that, Patch 12 for PC has been released alongside the Cyber Heist DLC. One of the most notable things from this update is the improved support for ultrawide displays.
