Cyberpunk 2077 has heralded a new era about a year and a half after its release: this is mainly due to the next-gen upgrade that finally makes CD Projekt Red's action role-playing game look like it should have from the start on the new consoles. And: Patch 1.5 also makes a significant contribution to the fact that fans can now experience the game differently.
Surprisingly, CD Projekt Red not only announced the next-gen upgrade in a live stream, but also released it directly – parallel to a one-month test phase during which players can try out the title for five hours free of charge. The developers have apparently learned from their mistakes: Instead of raising expectations again, which may then be disappointed, this time they relied on the surprise factor. This was well received by fans – the feedback on this campaign was mostly positive. The same applies to the quality of patch 1.5 and the next-gen upgrade.
Cyberpunk 2077 finally CYBERPUNK 2077
The start of Cyberpunk 2077 was anything but good for CD Projekt Red. While critics celebrated the game based on tests in PC environments, CDPR walled off the console versions to the point of a communication disaster. What had to come came: the quality of the published console versions lagged behind the PC version. Not only were fans disappointed, they felt betrayed. Even in the aftermath, the listed company was not particularly lucky in communicating the obvious problems of Cyberpunk 2077. The share price collapsed, and Sony even threw the game on the Playstation Store.
Weeks and months passed: updates and fixes later, Cyberpunk 2077 was much better playable than when it was released. The launch phase was not yet over for the developers, because the next-gen upgrade was still missing a game component that fans had been eagerly waiting for at least since the release of the Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X | S - among other things because they cyberpunk 2077 finally wanted to enjoy on consoles in the highest possible quality. But there was more behind it now: After many disappointments, fans wanted to know whether CD Projekt Red still stands for the high quality that was expected from the The Witcher series, for example. Now the developers have delivered and one thing is certain: they can still do it!
The next-gen upgrade almost eliminates loading times, it can be played with ray tracing and 30 FPS or without in 60 FPS, in high 4k resolution on the two flagship consoles Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X. You can actually see it in the game: That's how it is Cyberpunk 2077 was only allowed to be beautiful on the PC so far. Finally, the action role-playing game also shines on consoles. The hardware requirements have increased, which already indicates that something groundbreaking must have happened on the technical level. And indeed: CD Projekt Red's action role-playing game cuts a much better figure.
Life has returned to Night City: finally what is supposed to be happening in big cities is happening in the cyberpunk metropolis. People are out and about in large numbers, which is good for the atmosphere. So far there has been a dramatic gap in this area, which in some cases turned out to be a real mood killer: There was a hustle and bustle in the bars and clubs, and players found a completely different, much more boring world outside the doors. There was just nothing going on in the city. At least until now.
You can not only see that at first glance, it also fits much better with the background story, which sometimes obtrusively focused on the urban lifestyle. And: the people are not only more numerous, they react to the actions of the player. Some archetypes just don't like being pointed at with a weapon. Other running paths, adjustments to despawn, a few little things already make Night City a much nicer playground.
Cyberpunk 2077 also makes a lot more in terms of play - partly because the developers have rigorously removed useless skills or converted them into useful perks. Because the changes in this area are so drastic, players are allowed to perform a free "respec", i.e. redistribute their skill points. The skill changes are the real highlight, which basically makes Cyberpunk 2077 not just a new version, but a new game.
With the next-gen upgrade including patch 1.5, players on the Xbox Series X or Playstation 5 in particular have the chance to play Cyberpunk 2077 in unprecedented quality. And finally you can recommend it unreservedly, no: even advise you to do it. Yes, even with the new patch some new bugs found their way into the game. And yes, despite great player requests, CD Projekt Red has decided not to give the game a subway network for the time being - but with the update it is clear that all the new bugs will go away. CD Projekt Red is capable - now fans have received irrefutable proof of this.
