A hotfix for Cyberpunk 2077 is out on PC! Among others, it fixes the two most frequent crashes, including the one occurring during the final quest. Also, Dynamic Resolution Scaling setting will now consistently greyed out when Path Tracing is enabled.

The update won't change the version of the game visible in the main menu but might still affect mods.

Patch 1.62 for Cyberpunk 2077 is being rolled out on PC. This update brings the technology preview of Ray Tracing: Overdrive Mode for high-end PCs.

Together with NVIDIA, we’re bringing a completely new, fully ray-traced, aka path-traced, rendering mode to the game with this patch – Ray Tracing: Overdrive Mode. We’re proud of it. It pushes the boundaries of what's possible in technology. However, because it is so new and fundamentally different from what we've been using so far, we know it's not going to be perfect from the start and players might experience some issues – that’s why we’ve decided to call it a “Technology Preview”. This is a vision of the future that we want to share, and we're committed to continue working on and improving this feature.

The technology preview of Ray Tracing: Overdrive Mode is currently recommended on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 Series (4070 Ti and up) graphics cards. Also, on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 (1080p, 30 fps). As this is a cutting-edge feature, it requires the highest-performing hardware available to run it properly. Ray Tracing: Overdrive is very GPU intensive, therefore it’s set to "off" by default.

For other ray-tracing-capable PC graphics cards with at least 8GB VRAM, we included an option to render path-traced screenshots in Photo Mode. This is possible because it means rendering just one frame, as opposed to rendering several frames every second (i.e. FPS), which would happen when playing the game.

You'll find the list of changes for patch 1.62 below:

• Path Tracing: Technology Preview

Added a Ray Tracing: Overdrive preset which includes the Path Tracing technology. You can enable the Ray Tracing: Overdrive preset in Settings > Graphics > Quick Preset, or just Path Tracing separately in Settings > Graphics in the Ray Tracing section. To make sure Ray Tracing: Overdrive Mode works correctly on your PC, update your NVIDIA Game Ready Driver to version 531.41 at minimum.

Additionally, we included an option to render path-traced screenshots in Photo Mode for other Ray-Tracing-capable graphics cards with at least 8GB VRAM. If your graphics card has more than 8GB VRAM and this option is still greyed out, it means you need to lower your in-game resolution. Note that the higher the resolution and the less powerful the GPU is, the longer it will take to take a screenshot (between a few seconds to several minutes). You can enable Path Tracing for Photo Mode in Settings > Graphics in the Ray Tracing section.

• DLAA

Added NVIDIA DLAA, an AI-based anti-aliasing mode designed to improve image quality. DLAA requires a NVIDIA RTX graphics card. It can be enabled in Settings > Graphics in the NVIDIA DLSS section.

• Intel XeSS

Added support for Intel Xe Super Sampling 1.1, an upscaling technology using machine learning to provide improved performance with high image quality. It can be enabled in Settings > Graphics in the Resolution Scaling section.

• Benchmark improvements

Improved the Benchmark to display more information in the results screen, including PC specs, GPU driver version and selected settings.

An update for Cyberpunk 2077 is out on PC. It adds support for NVIDIA DLSS 3 and NVIDIA Reflex on compatible hardware. The update won't change the game version (1.61).

More information about DLSS can be found in this support article.

Note: If you're using GOG GALAXY, please make sure to also update the app. If the app is not up to date, the game will still work correctly but the GOG GALAXY Overlay will not run.

 

[Marcin Momot]

If that's true then that's a bold statement. Blood & Wine is massive, even compared to a lot of other game expansions. That said, I would hope so. They have been working on this since early 2021.

To clarify, and this has been reflected in the article since then, it's about the budget being the biggest in terms of expansion packs we've released. We'll talk about all the details related to the scope of the game at a later time.

I think you should think about as another tool you can use to make your modding experience better.
It allows for managing load order and now the Vortex plugin supports it so in essence you install the DLC on steam/gog and you don't need to bother with anything really just use Vortex.
I would say the reasons to use it:
- It's maintained properly by CDPR so you can expect it to work out of the box with every update.
- You can play without mods with 1 click if something breaks
- Load order
- Doesn't affect CET etc. because they play along nicely
- Has a cool name
- REDmod sound mods for example only work with REDmod which you can do with CET etc but it is much cleaner this way.

So all in all, it's a tool and you have to decide for yourself how you utilize it
