Cyberpunk 2077 gets 8k new-gen graphics overhaul that may blow up your PC

CD Projekt Red made something special when they made Cyberpunk 2077.

Despite an unpleasant start, the sci-fi RPG has become a treasured experience, not least of all because of its stunning aesthetic.

Few would say that Cyberpunk 2077 needs a graphical overhaul – there's a few janks here and there, but mostly it’s a visually polished world.

Nonetheless, when the chance to see new-gen graphics for a popular game arises, we’re not ones to turn away.

Just be warned though, this 8k overhaul is going to seriously strain your PC.

Hot damn, these new-gen graphics for Cyberpunk 2077 look incredible

Digital Dreams has shared this ultra modded experience on YouTube much to the amazement of fans who can’t get over how “sick” and “beautiful” it looks.

This isn’t just a showcase though, you can actually play Cyberpunk this way as well, provided you’re willing to download and install “300 plus” mods.

It’s an eye-watering amount, a figure that we doubt many PC setups can handle.

That said, if you want to put your computer to the test, you can find the mod list on NexusMods as well as within the YouTube caption of the video.

The ‘Photorealistic Reshade and Modlist’ has two hefty files waiting to be downloaded that may put you off tempting fate.

If that’s the case, you can simply sit back in awe as you watch the cityscape of Night City come to live like never before.

It’s truly impressive to behold.

“This game just continues to impress and the modding here is superb!! Well done & keep them coming,” posted YouTube user @spyly1.

Someone else remarked, “Looks and sounds great... music sounds VERY close to what Muse sounds like.”

Praise isn’t just coming from impressed onlookers but from fans who’ve tried out the modlist for themselves.

“Can highly appreciate! Best ReShade for Cyberpunk and modlist,” shared NexusMods member D4rkResistance.

The next time you take a spin around Night City, why not push the limits of your PC while you’re at it.
