The excellent update of Cyberpunk 2077 hides two bad news

CD Projekt Red presented version 2.3 of Cyberpunk 2077hearty update which adds many new features. Nevertheless, we can regret two things: the absence of optimizations for the PS5 PRO and late availability on Switch 2.

CD Projekt Red had, as expected, still things to show concerning Cyberpunk 2077 – After claiming that the developments were finished. In a press release published on July 16, the Polish firm therefore presents version 2.3 of its RPG launched in 2020 and having experienced a historic report in recent years after a chaotic departure.

If we can be happy to see Cyberpunk 2077 Continue to evolve positively, thanks to the dedication of CD Projekt Red (supported by Virtuos in this effort), two points tarnish the table. The first concerns the absence of optimizations for the PS5 PRO, The most powerful console on the market which could however improve rendering and performance. The second is linked to Switch 2, which will receive version 2.3 “ on a later date », When the other platforms – PS5, Xbox Series, PC – will be served this Thursday, July 17.

Always more things in Cyberpunk 2077

The lack of consideration – assumed – for the PS5 Pro is all the more disappointing since CD Projekt Red and Virtuos have worked on graphic and visual improvements for all versions. Thus, on PC, we gain compatibility with the FSR4 (for AMD graphics cards), HDR10+ Gaming and additional options for DLSS settings. On PS5 and Xbox Series S/X, we note the arrival of VRR technology to improve fluidity with compatible equipment.

Update 2.3 of Cyberpunk 2077 Add four vehicles, including three to acquire by completing unpublished missions. It also incorporates what developments call the autodrive, ” An autonomous driving function that will lead you to a chosen destination (for example, a goal or a benchmark placed on the map). If you do not have a defined destination, it will make you make a quiet walk in the streets of Night City ». To top it off, we can take advantage of these journeys with a kinematic mode designed to highlight Night City.

Always on vehicles, the possibility of customizing the livery with Crystalcoat is extended, including motorcycles and entry -level models.

Finally, the photo mode is copiously improved :

  • 27 new NPCs can now be generated:
  • Possibility to change the HNG holding in photo mode by selecting from variants;
  • Possibility of alternating between the outfits safeguarded in the Vard of V;
  • Adding a confirmation window when leaving the photo mode to avoid accidental closures;
  • Adding customization options for the “watching the camera” feature, including the possibility of orienting only the character’s eyes towards the lens, instead of the whole body.

Will it be the last update of Cyberpunk 2077 ? We could be tempted to believe it now that CD Projekt Red is focused on the continuation – as well as The Witcher 4. But you should never say anymore with the Polish studio.
