The John Wick star took to the stage to reveal something we&#8217;ve all been eagerly awaiting &#8211; the release date and trailer for the new expansion of Cyberpunk 2077, namely the Phantom Liberty DLC. But that&#8217;s not all, Reeves will be pairing up with the supremely talented Idris Elba for this venture.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Reeves Sets the Stage for Phantom Liberty<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the showcase, Reeves, who embodies the digital apparition of rockstar-turned-rebel, Johnny Silverhand, offered us a sneak peek into the Phantom Liberty&#8217;s trailer.
