Cyberpunk 2077 will have a graphics mode with improved ray tracing
The other day, CD Projekt RED studio announced the next update for Cyberpunk 2077. Already on April 11, the quality of reflections and shadows will significantly increase in the game thanks to improved ray tracing.
According to the developers, the new Overdrive graphics mode will unscrew RTX to the maximum. It is reported that almost all light sources will begin to cast physically correct soft shadows, and for indirect lighting and reflections, several refractions of the beam will be calculated, and not just one. In addition, the reflections will be calculated at full resolution – before it was lower than the real one.
CD Projekt RED created this mode in collaboration with NVIDIA engineers. It is assumed that it will require an RTX 40xx series graphics card to activate it, although the hardware requirements have not yet been officially announced.
