Cyberpunk 2077 getting a PS5 Pro patch

Time to play through Phantom Liberty again.
 
PSSR2 obviously, but I wonder if they will go further. 1080p->4k with PSSR4 will offer a good enough image quality and should allow for RT reflections, shadows, and perhaps some lighting.
 
PSSR2 a possibility?
It's PSSR2!
In addition to the titles above, Crimson Desert is also adopting the new PSSR when it launches on March 19th. And furthermore, Assassin's Creed Shadows, and Cyberpunk 2077 will also receive a patch in the coming weeks to support the new PSSR!

Right as Im in the middle of my fourth playthrough. And the most recent update on the Pro had it running, looking and feeling pretty damn good already

I'm happy PSSR will replace shitty FSR. I would kill for a FOV slider with the extra GPU power it will unlock.

Edit - I wonder if they will pro enhance Witcher 3 later in the year with the mod support update.

Cool, I'm glad I haven't finished the game yet.

But it's a bit frustrating that everything relating to PS5 Pro updates as of late is announced as coming "soon".

They should do lighting first. It's by far the most transformative RT option.

Enjoy Pro users.

As for base PS5 owners:

Ahah, just kidding.

Not really.
 
Happy for the console boys. This game will benefit a lot from PSSR2 because the city is full of assets like cables, fences etc that really need more stability in motion

Very good
 
I started the Neflix animated show last night.
I thought that Rebecca girl was going to be a main character. She's more a background comedy type.
It's fun to see places in the game in the show.

The show was pretty fucking great. And a few of the skills in the game are based off of some the characters. You can find a few special items associated with the show too.
 
Cerny said RT performance for this console is 2-4x that of the PS5. Should be able to include medium RTGI and reflections then.

But my guess is that they will just do a PSSR patch, and call it a day.

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!! I'll be able to play this game. I banned myself from playing this game until it had a proper PS5 Pro patch. And said, it if doesn't happen before GTA6 releases, then I'd never play CyberPunk 2077 ever in my life.
 
Haha finally. Only took (almost) 18 months of nagging

Looks like they didn't like original PSSR, and if they decided to not do any RT stuff (who knows) there was no point in making Pro version (with dynamic res it was already better on Pro). But with PSSR2 being so much better now it makes sense.

We have seen how many rays/pixel they are doing and their RT is extremely heavy. Of course they could try reducing quality like Remedy.

do we have a number? i think they can port the medium RTGI settings to the pro. i dont think reflections had a quality setting though.

Gaiff Gaiff posted them in CD thread. It was much heavier than most other games and yeah, RT reflections have only one (high quality) option that tanks performance even on RTX cards.

We'll see. Generally CDPR goes the extra mile when updating to new versions, but the game is also old at this point
 
Time to finally dive in despite preordering on GOG (was cheap on the russian store with vpn) and getting complete for PS5, the patience paid out.

And this is the exact reason I haven't played phantom liberty yet. They kept saying they were done with the game, and that there was no plans for a ps5 pro patch, then proceeded to keep announcing various updates to the game every 6 months, I had zero trust they weren't going to get around to it…even gaf said I was silly waiting and they'd never bother.
 
They should at least implement rt reflections and rt ao in quality mode,bc without it it don't make sense to make pro upgrade at all, beside pssr 2 of course

They HAVE to be adding some form of RT with PSSR2 for image quality. Otherwise, why spend dev time patching it?
