Click to enlargeThere are two ways to start the Phantom Liberty DLC in Cyberpunk 2077: starting the expansion during the main campaign, or skipping straight to the expansion from the main menu.
For the former, players will need to reach Act 2 of the Cyberpunk 2077 main story. Once you finish the quest called I Walk The Line in the Pacifica region of Night City, the new location of Dogtown will unlock, and you'll be able to visit it to begin the Phantom Liberty expansion.

Doing this second method will put you at the recommended starting level for the expansion with attributes and skills automatically selected for you, though there is the option to respec before diving into the expansion.
That's all for our primer on how to start the Phantom Liberty DLC in Cyberpunk 2077, and now you know how to begin the new expansion during the main game, or from the main menu.
