Cyberpunk 2077 Looks Like a New-Gen Sequel in Wild Free Graphics Overhaul

Cyberpunk 2077 has just received a new graphics overhaul, and it looks like it might be primed for the PlayStation 6 at this point.

Releasing nearly five years ago, Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the most gorgeous games that you can play on modern consoles. It seems to even triumph over games that are coming out right now.

Even so, if you’re playing this game on PC, downloading mods and using other enhancements can make the game look even better, if that’s even possible.

That’s certainly the case for the latest set of enhancements brought by Digital Dreams, a digital artist who often posts graphics overhauls like this on their YouTube channel.

Digital Dreams has now posted a new video showing off some Cyberpunk 2077 gameplay with a load of new visual upgrades, including updated path tracing and improved textures.

The video shows off some bike gameplay, before transitioning to them driving through Night City in a car at night. Night-time is usually a good place to show off these kinds of mods, as it allows more artificial reflections from lights to show up.

Running the game at 4K, Cyberpunk 2077 has never looked better than this. Check out the video below to have a look for yourself, because to be honest, this needs to be seen to be believed.

If you’re hoping to run this version of the game for yourself, be warned that you’ll need a really beefy system. Digital Dreams’ hardware boasts an RTX 5090 in the graphics card slot, along with a Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor and 64GB of RAM. That’s not cheap by any means.

I think if I tried running this on my PC, it would probably melt under all the pressure. So I’ll probably give it a miss for a few years until my computer budget catches up.

Still, if there’s anything I’ve learned from hardware advancements, it’s that this is certainly the level of graphics we all might be able to reach at some point in the future. This might even be what Cyberpunk 2077’s inevitable PS6 upgrade may look like.

For the time being, however, you’re better off sticking with the base game graphics if you don’t have the PC hardware to support this. Cyberpunk 2077 is available on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One. It also recently got a port on Nintendo Switch 2, which looks and performs great, by the way.
