Why is Cyberpunk 2077 not getting a PS5 Pro Patch?
There are many reasons as to why CD Projekt Red might not be interested in a Patch for Sony’s hefty $700 console. The biggest reason is Cyberpunk 2077 currently is one of the best-looking games for the PlayStation 5 and with mods available on PC the game looks breathtaking and hyper-realistic. There is no point for the devs to introduce a patch, yes it can be debated on why and how a patch will enhance the performance of the game for the PS5 Pro. But fans also need to keep in mind that currently, no developers are working on Cyberpunk 2077 anymore.
Just months ago CD Projekt Red pulled all the devs off the game to focus on future projects and the Witcher 4, the first game in the new Witcher Trilogy planned for the future. The Polish Devs are now more focused on providing a fully packaged and another groundbreaking title and gaining back their lost reputation of master crafting AAA titles.
