CD Projekt Red, the studio behind the popular game Cyberpunk 2077, has confirmed that they have no plans to release an upgrade patch specifically for the PlayStation 5 Pro. This news comes as a disappointment to fans who were hoping to see the game receive enhancements for Sony’s new console.
Sony had announced that a number of games would be receiving PlayStation 5 Pro upgrades, offering improvements in frame rates and graphics. Titles like Horizon Forbidden West, Demon’s Souls, and The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered have already received patches for the new console. However, CD Projekt Red has stated that Cyberpunk 2077 will not be joining the list of upgraded games.
The studio made the announcement on social media in response to a fan question, stating simply, “We currently have no plans for PS5 Pro patch.” This decision is not entirely surprising, as development on Cyberpunk 2077 concluded some time ago and the studio is now focused on a new Witcher title.
While the lack of a PlayStation 5 Pro upgrade for Cyberpunk 2077 may be disappointing for some fans, it is worth noting that the performance of upgraded games on the new console has been mixed. Titles like Silent Hill 2, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, and Alan Wake 2 have shown varying results in tests conducted by Digital Foundry. Ultimately, the decision to opt for the PlayStation 5 Pro comes down to personal preference and whether the enhanced experience justifies the premium price tag.
In conclusion, while CD Projekt Red has confirmed that there are no plans for a PlayStation 5 Pro upgrade for Cyberpunk 2077, fans can still enjoy the game on the standard PlayStation 5 console. The debate over the merits of upgrading to the Pro version continues, with some titles delivering better results than others. Ultimately, the choice of console and gaming experience depends on individual preferences and priorities.
