Night City is pretty new to me, as I’ve tried to start the game several times over the years, and it’s only recently clicked with the Nintendo Switch 2 release - playing in bed is godly.
I already think that Cyberpunk 2077 looks gorgeous across all systems, but of course, modders have stepped in to crank it up to 11 and make the game feel like “real-life.”
The YouTuber, Digital Dreams, is back with another video showing off Cyberpunk 2077 with a ridiculous number of mods installed, running everything on a beastly gaming rig.
The video showcases several parts of the game, from exploring Night City, to frenetic gun fights, and all while it runs with 4K visuals, at 170fps, looking like a dream.

Could this be a sneak peek at what the sequel will look like when CD Projekt Red has finished cooking, and it emerges on next-gen hardware?
There’s no denying this looks stunning, with lush lighting, smooth textures, and buttery smooth movement.
“If you showed me this when I was a kid, my mind would have exploded,” comments one fan of the footage.
Playing this way isn’t an option for the everyday gamer, as you need some serious hardware to get the game looking this way.
Digital Dreams takes advantage of am NVIDIA RTX 5090 FE, as well as 64GB of RAM, all being precessed by a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, all of which costs a pretty penny.
For now, we’ll have to make do with more meagre mods if PC is the platform of choice, but as I said above, Cyberpunk 2077 already looks lovely on current hardware.
“Insane!” exclaims another viewer, who is clearly impressed with what they saw.
It’s remarkable what technology can do for game visuals nowadays, and this is a clear indication of what we’ll see from the likes of the PlayStation 6.
