Do you need to finish Cyberpunk 2077 before playing Phantom Liberty DLC?

No, you don’t need to finish Cyberpunk 2077 before playing Phantom Liberty DLC.

Phantom Liberty is a separate expansion, meaning you will get to play new story dialogues and segments. If you’re yet to play the main campaign, that’s even more ideal as Update 2.0 has made the game much better, and Phantom Liberty DLC bringing along a new ending.

That being said, Update 2.0 is the free part of the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 update. As a result, it makes more sense to enjoy the game as it was intended earlier than what players got to experience during the launch in 2020.
