I recently started playing cyberpunk, I downloaded it from dodi and now i've noticed in one month or so, cyberpunk will receive a major update so I will need to reinstall the game with the update. How can I keep my save?

I don’t know how it works for this particular Cyberpunk crack.

Why would there need to be a crack in the first place? Cyberpunk is released DRM-free, isn't it?

Yes and no. If you get the DRM-free GOG release directly, you would not have this problem. Since this person stated they used the DODI repack, they're now dependant on which release DODI used for his repack, since it may well be a Steam or Epic Games release.

I quickly looked it up, and the repack is based on the InsaneRamZes release, which in turn is based on either GOG or EGS, depending on which forum post you go by. So I'm not 100 % sure what's actually being used here. According to the PCGamingWiki, there's no difference in save location between the different stores, so best case scenario, OP can simply update the game to V2 and everything should be picked up.
