The Cyberpunk 2077 PS5 Pro update arrives on 8 April

CD Projekt Red set the date: the Cyberpunk 2077 update for PlayStation 5 Pro arrives on 8 April. It adds full 4K, stronger ray tracing, and PSSR. Lighting uses BVH8 and covers shadows, reflections, and global illumination.

There are three modes. Ray Tracing Pro aims at the maximum image at up to 40 frames on VRR, or 30 without it. Performance raises the rate to 90 on compatible displays. The balanced mode holds 60 frames with improved graphics.

The game is already in the PlayStation Plus catalog, so subscribers can try the Pro version without a separate purchase. The studio calls the patch a way to see what the new console can do in Night City.

The announcement does not promise content beyond graphics. This is the technical update the studio flagged in March.
