Cyberpunk 2077 Gameplay on PS5 & PS4 Pro Revealed

Today CD Projekt RED released a new video of Cyberpunk 2077 showcasing what you can expect from the game if you have a PlayStation console.

[Hellcat2020]

Looks great even on the ps4 pro

[Army_of_Darkness]

What do you mean even on the pro?! The pro is still badass bro!

[Hellcat2020]

I know
I have a pro and a ps5
I just didn't think it would look that good on ps4

[Army_of_Darkness]

How could you have so little faith? Have you played horizon zero dawn on pro!? 🤯 Plays and looks amazing!

[Ashunderfire86]

When you say pro bro 😎 I can imagine a character in the game saying that lol 😂

[LOGICWINS]

It looks fantastic. If they'd told me this was the next-gen version, I would have believe them.

[potatoseal]

They're not really showing PS5 footage at all. It's PS4 Backwards Compatibilty played on PS5. I'm definitely going to WAIT until they release a real Next-Gen version. I've waited this long, I can wait a while longer.

[RaidenBlack]

I'll agree. For current-gen console/6800 card owners. Wait till next-year.
Might be tough amidst the leaking and boasting from last-gen/RTX card owners. But it'll be worth it.
.
Now only if they release the update/upgrade on-time/Sooner.
"Sometime next year" ~ doesn't instill much confidence.

[Nicknasty]

I think I read that the developers said they will release a free upgrade in the future for us PS5 owners. They seemed to think it could be quite awhile before we see it though. Really wish with all the delay, they would’ve already had a proper PS5 version to purchase on day 1.

[Rude-ro]

It will be the same version.
Just more make up and performance options...
But still the identical game.

[onemanwolfp4kv2]

completely understand where you are coming from but I will be getting day one and re-playing when the next gen comes out. main reason for that is trying to avoid spoilers bc you know there will be assholes out there that love to piss people off.

on a sadder note I wish I could snag 1 of those 3500 ps5's that retailer has :-(

[MajorLazer]

Retailer? It's a group of scalpers.

[cd1]

I wasn't going to wait when it was originally being released on the same day as PS5 in the UK but I will now.

[wwinterj]

Given the game gets a free upgrade when they have the next gen version out I see no reason for me to wait. IF I cared that much about playing the best version I'd be gaming on PC a long time ago. I do want to see PS4/Xbox One gameplay though out of curiosity.

[gamer7804]

right, its same for xbox one x and xbox series x, it will load better and run a bit faster, maybe higher dynamic res but no next gen specific features. still looks good enough to not wait for a next gen patch on ps5 or xsx

[Bathyj]

Same. Don't want to sully myself with last gen games.

I'm kidding of course, but I am going to wait for Ps5 version.

[cellmember]

exactly what i thought when i watched it. doesn't really count demoing it on ps5 the ps4 pro version. Great it runs, so what. im going to pick it up on steam first and then maybe grab it on my ps5 once the patch comes out.

[Ausbo]

Just know that it probably won’t come out until end of spring. CD PROJEKT tend to be perfectionists, and we know they don’t have a problem delaying until it’s exactly what they want.

[Mister_Wolf]

100% waiting for the next gen update.

[RaidenBlack]

Moar! We want to see MOAR!

[CrimsonWing69]

The game looks so good but it kills me that there's only like 2 people standing on the sidewalk when he drives around

Just distracting and makes the world feel less lived in.

[Neo111]

If you would spend some time reading impressions of people who played the game, you would know that there are crowded places (especially at certain times), but there are also places and times where you won't see crowds (e.g. dangerous areas at night).

[CrimsonWing69]

What is this “reading” you speak of?

I’m pretty sure I was speaking contextually to the video where it doesn’t show a crowded area with pedestrians. Which was the the whole bit of me saying “only 2 people when he drives by” and how that makes “the world feel less lived in.”

[boing1]

Maybe there is still pandemic in 2077. Good excuse for empty streets.

[CrimsonWing69]

But what about the cyber-lungs?

[Elda]

I've got 7 PS5 games & a backlog of PS4 games to finish playing I'll wait until next year to pick this up when there's a PS5 version.

[CobraKai]

Me too. Shoot I got a backlog of PS360 games still.

[Tapani]

I still have a backlog from Japan-only released PSX games. Just bought Tear Ring Saga and Policenauts PSX games yesterday. Cost me 12 bucks!

Plus PS2 games like Valkyrie Profile 2 and Shadow Hearts 3. PS3 Nier Replicant. Ohh and PS4/Switch has like 7 games to finish and on Steam another 7.

Maybe I won’t buy that 6800xt and PS5 after all... Or Cyberpunk!

[CobraKai]

@Tapani I always wanted Snatcher and Policenauts. Too bad we never got some kind of remake.

[jznrpg]

Yep same boat at

[Neo111]

Ride a bike when a Ferrari just parked in the garage - I admire the commitment :-)

[Elda]

Your analogy is off.

[Traecy]

That Ferrari parked in the garage may not be running or working at the moment. They may ride that bike until the Ferrari is working & running properly.

[Vithar]

looks good tbh, but am still playing on PC

[Neo111]

Me too - probably on Gforce Now to get full RTX.

[rpvenom]

Well that just solidified me getting this on PC since the PS5 version isn't available on release date.. I can't wait any longer to play this game..

[JEECE]

Yep. Who knows how long the wait might be for the true next gen version, or even if it will be worth it. It wouldn't surprise me at all if the last gen version comes in at 30 fps, then people hype themselves up about how the PS5 version is going to be 60 fps, only for CD Projekt to come out in March or so and announce that, due to Resolution/added effects/ray tracing, the next gen version will also be 30 fps. I'd rather just get it on PC, immediately turn off framerate killing nonsense like ray tracing and turn on DLSS 2.0, and play at well over 60 fps.

[phoenixwing]

I will try ray tracing but I might turn it off if it's too much of a resource hog for my 2070 super

[AnnaDea]

Ray tracing in a game like this will be ge a game changer.

That's the next generation.

[CobraKai]

The 4 still got it. It’s looking exceptional.

[Aussieguy]

It will be interesting how the ps4 pro version runs on ps5 and if it will run at 60fps and maybe a higher resolution ?

[jbull]

Looking good for Dec 10th release. Thought the video was going to be the leak from those morons who cannot command the English language.

[Vandamme21]

Meh

[Shikoku]

Already saw that from the leaked footage

[Jpinter]

Looks great!

[AnnaDea]

Was gonna play it on the ps4 pro. But ordered a rtx 2060 just for the ray tracing and dlss2.

This game will be insane for us RTX users at release. Gonna buy the PS5 version when that patch launches.

[nickanasty206]

Wow, runs surprisingly well. This gives me great hope for next gen releases. Maybe we will actually hit 1440p with Raytracing at 60fps or 4K 30. The aiming does look pretty sluggish with a controller though, could just be the way it looks. May have to get it for PC and Consoles.

[Pughski]

Wonder how it looks on a regular PS4

[rlow1]

Yeah they've done a great job with this game on the ps4 pro

[Hawk198666]

Looks very average. Streets look empty. Looks extremely overhyped

[Akarogg]

Hawk is another clueless gamer

[repsahj]

im not into fps rpg, but damn this looks so good. I thought ill wait for them to make witcher 4, but ill definitely play this now if i got my hands with a PS5.

[Limitedtimestruggle]

Going the PC-route for this to be sure! That RTX 3080 pumping those pixels to my OLED is going to be orgasmic! Still this is looking up!

[ufo8mycat]

The group of people "I am definitely going to wait for the PS5 version to play this! to get the better experience".
If that is the case, why not build a high-end PC and play it on that if you are concerned about the 'better experience' ?

The graphical difference with this game between PS5 and a high end PC will be bigger, then the graphical differences you will see between PS4 Pro/Onx and PS5/Series X.

The best experience will be on a high end PC with a OLED display, so why not opt for that?

[RickRoland]

Because if someone just bought a $500 console instead of a gaming rig....perhaps that’s where their preferred mode of gaming is? I am one of those people....there’s many benefits to waiting for a next-gen version.... 1) many patches for big bugs 2) Better graphics 3) better load times 4) you get to wait for real long term impressions of the game before diving in with your hard earned money.

Those reasons plus not wanting to spend $3-4000 on a gaming rig (from scratch) is my reason. The difference between the high end PC and the next-gen version will be closer than you think if done right.... and if the game is trash I didn’t spend my money building a rig for it, my console will move on to better games. Not as many gaming options on the PC side.

[aaronaton]

Why does this game look so unpopulated? Hopefully the next gen version can introduce more than 10 people walking around the whole city. Lifeless and baron.

[Kubark]

Compare the PS4 Pro to the PC and you'll see how rough it looks on Sony's ancient hardware. But they gotta make the profits I guess and that means appealing to the lowest common denominator (that's the base PS4, of course).

[XBManiac]

This can be really be a test for PlayStation 5, when compared to PS4 Pro. Not only for Ray Tracing, but depth of field, frame rate, resolution, textures quality (more than double the RAM available) and... ¿instant loading? Good news for anybody who has a PS5 available for this, really good news.

[anast]

Does it run at 4000 fps? If not I'll just wait 10 more years for the real next gen version to come out. I've waited this long.

[Rikimaru1977]

Nice looking game but all i'm seeing talking, talking, talking, talking, o here action. ok now more talking, talking, talking. and more talking. Every time they show this game all i'm see is talking with less than a minute of action.

[GrizToof]

Is there a higher resolution video of this gameplay somewhere? The YouTube cyberpunk channel had it running at 1080p only. They did the same resolution for the xsx and xox video but later on i found a 4k upload that looked a lot cleaner.
