CD Projekt Red, the developer behind the popular game Cyberpunk 2077, has announced that there are no current plans to release a PS5 Pro Enhanced patch or update for the console version of the game. This news is particularly disappointing for fans of the game who were hoping to see improved performance and visual fidelity on Sony's latest console, the PS5 Pro.
The PS5 Pro, which is Sony's mid-generation upgrade, boasts a more powerful GPU and includes an AI-powered upscaling technology called PSSR, as well as new ray-tracing hardware. This hardware is based on AMD's upcoming RDNA 4 'Radeon' architecture, offering a significant performance boost for real-time ray-tracing.
Despite the PS5 Pro's capabilities, Cyberpunk 2077, which could greatly benefit from these enhancements, will not be receiving a 'PS5 Pro Enhanced' update. This means that players will not be able to experience the game's ray-tracing or visual improvements on the PS5 Pro, which is a significant letdown for those who have invested in the new hardware.
CD Projekt Red has not provided an explanation for the lack of a PS5 Pro patch, but it is assumed that the development team has moved on to other projects, as Cyberpunk 2077's development is considered complete with no new content expected.
