This Cyberpunk 2077 overhaul looks like something straight out of the year… well, 2077 (but you’ll probably need a PC from the same year to actually be able to run it).
Cyberpunk 2077 can be criticised for a lot of things, but graphical fidelity certainly isn’t one of them.
Even on the Nintendo Switch 2, CD Projekt RED managed to produce quite possibly one of the prettiest games of the current generation– but that’s not stopped folks from trying to make it look even prettier.
Speaking of, wanna see what Cyberpunk 2077 looks like running on a computer from the future, in 8k and with a bunch of reshade mods? Yeah, of course you do.

In that case, take a look at Digital Dreams’ latest "Next Gen Pathtracing” modlist in action (and then proceed to feel poor when you scroll down and read all of the expensive PC parts they used to actually get it to run).
Honestly, this is ridiculous. I don’t even think it’s an exaggeration when I say that this does legitimately look like something from a next-gen system like the PlayStation 6. I feel like my PC is going to explode just trying to load the video.
The funny thing is, I don’t even think the next generation of video games is going to look this good for quite some time. PS6 launch games likely aren’t going to look anywhere close to this (but then again, the system will hopefully cost a fraction of the PC Digital Dreams used for the video).

However, if you think your machine is up to the challenge, then firstly, congratulations Mr Moneybags, but secondly, you can find a link to Digital Dreams’ modlist for Cyberpunk 2077 here.
I am not joking when I say that the PC you’ll need to get this to work will cost you an arm and a leg. The GPU alone (a NVIDIA RTX 5090 FE) that Digital Dreams is using will cost you somewhere around £2,500.
Man, I’d be so annoyed if I dropped £2,500 on a part just to have a slightly better one come out mere months later, but hey, that’s the beauty of owning a console, I guess.
Makes you wonder how good Cyberpunk 2077 will look on next-gen systems too… but let’s be real, regardless of how powerful the PS6 does end up being, I don’t think it’ll ever look as good as Digital Dreams’ version of the game.
