Cyberpunk 2077 Gets Yet Another Surprise Patch on PS5

by

As Cyberpunk 2077 approaches its fifth birthday, it continues to receive numerous updates, doesn’t it?

After the release of Update 2.3 in July, we now have Update 2.31 at hand. However, let me clarify that this isn’t a major overhaul; it primarily focuses on resolving various smaller problems.

Indeed, there are several noteworthy enhancements to be found, particularly with regard to refinements made to the AutoDrive feature, which was first introduced in the preceding update.

With a name that speaks for itself, AutoDrive enables smooth navigation through Night City in a self-driven vehicle of your preference. It’s compatible with most vehicles you own, but its operation may occasionally exhibit some quirks, such as the car or bike coming to a halt momentarily during turns or having difficulty steering clear of objects on the predetermined path.

This improvement seems likely to streamline the entire process significantly, a development that certainly appears promising.

Currently, the photo mode is receiving another enhancement, which includes minor adjustments that could entice photography enthusiasts to revisit the editing tools right away.

Wow, isn’t that surprising? They’ve included a feature to turn off the game’s vignette effect, something we hadn’t anticipated! Can you believe it?
