CD Projekt Red has officially launched a massive, free PS5 Pro update for Cyberpunk 2077, transforming the neon-drenched streets of Night City with cutting-edge technology. This enhancement leverages the full power of Sony’s latest hardware to provide unprecedented visual fidelity and smoother frame rates for all players.

The update introduces several technical milestones, most notably the integration of PSSR support (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution), which uses AI-driven upscaling to maintain sharp 4K visuals without sacrificing performance. Additionally, fans can experience ray tracing enhancements that bring the game’s lighting and reflections closer to the studio’s original artistic vision.

Key Features of the Cyberpunk 2077 PS5 Pro Update

PSSR Support Integration: The update utilizes PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution to deliver high-quality AI upscaling, ensuring crisp image clarity while maintaining high frame rates.

New Ray Tracing Pro Mode: This elite setting enables all available ray-tracing features—including emissive lighting and skylight—targeting 30 FPS on standard screens or 40 FPS on VRR displays.

High-Speed Performance Mode: For those who prioritize fluid movement, the Performance Mode now targets a blistering 90 FPS on displays equipped with Variable Refresh Rate (VRR).

Balanced Ray Tracing Mode: A new middle-ground option offers a stable 60 FPS experience with a curated selection of ray-tracing features for a perfect mix of speed and beauty.

Completely Free Upgrade: This technical overhaul is available at no additional cost for all existing owners of the game and is also accessible to PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers via the Game Catalog.

By combining PSSR support with these deep ray tracing enhancements, CD Projekt Red has ensured that Cyberpunk 2077 remains a benchmark for graphical excellence on the PS5 Pro console.
