Cyberpunk 2077 Update v2.3 Brings FSR 4, XeSS Frame Generation, VRR for Consoles, and Much More

Tomorrow at 10:00 CET, CD Projekt Red will release Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.3 across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, bringing a renewed pulse to Night City. Players on compatible hardware can now activate AMD FSR 4 and FSR 3.1 frame generation, Intel XeSS 2 with frame generation, Intel HDR10+ Gaming, and, for the first time, Variable Refresh Rate on consoles. A native Apple Silicon build also debuts on the Mac App Store. Four new vehicles arrive through narrative side jobs: the Yaiba ARV-Q340 Semimaru, Rayfield Caliburn "Mordred," Yaiba ASM-R250 Muramasa, and Chevillon Legatus 450 Aquila. Once earned, each can be piloted hands-free with the new AutoDrive system or summoned as a self-driving Delamain cab after completing "Don't Lose Your Mind."

Rayfield's CrystalCoat technology now coats partner-brand cars and motorcycles, supported by twin-tone paint packages and a community cracked variant for budget builds. Photo Mode expands with twenty-seven additional NPC spawns, wardrobe swapping, new stickers, frames, and colour balance tools. Quality of life updates include inverted-mouse detection, replayable tutorials, quieter radio balance, and a host of quest, gameplay, and stability fixes. The complete list of changes is very long, and you can check it out here.

Event HorizonIf it's between XeSS 2 and FSR 3.1, I would take the slight perf hit and pick XeSS 2 almost every time.
Probably so, I already play Ultra at a decent framerate, would gladly jump to Native TAA, but performance hit on a 6800 XT is like 30% in CP2077. I guess XeSS Ultra Quality will be my choice anyway, but who knows, let's see.

From the Cyberpunk forums:
"Patch 2.3 DOES NOT include FSR 3.1 Upscaling, only FSR FG 3.1.
Included FSR versions are still FSR 2.1 and 3.0.
The game STILL wants to restart when you enable FG."

I just refuse to believe it... Cannot check it as I'm still at work.

Doesn't it have to support FSR 3.1 in order for FSR 4 to work? I thought FSR 4 required the FSR 3.1 input API to be present. That's how most if not all current FSR 4 titles work. The Radeon driver detects FSR 3.1 and automatically enables FSR 4 driver side, it's not presented as an actual FSR 4 option in-game.

Supposedly. Maybe somebody smarter than me explains this.

The FSR is certainly nice, but that should be it - just a small technical / bug fixing update. Instead, they add some irrelevant tidbits and the media puffs it all up as a big deal. Clever play, no doubt.

FSR 4 currently requires FSR 3.1 in order to work, but that doesn't mean the game's graphics settings has to expose an FSR 3.1 option at all. So a game could provide FSR 3.0 and FSR 4.0 if it's toggled on via a supported driver, but not FSR 3.1. There's a video from Ancient Gameplays testing FSR 4, but it turns out he only had the option show because he previously had Optiscaler installed. Let's wait for the official drivers.

I watched the video, I'll settle for XeSS 2.0 then.

I got more FPS in the benchmark with XeSS 2.0 than I ever did before with the same ultra settings, minus RT, pretty much.

The download went trash before I simply choose the uninstall option and reinstalled it, as if I haven't installed it yet. I got 2.3 afterwards.

It failed to start correctly, seeing mostly no activity, with blips of 1 Mb. :wtf:

My Steam downloads usually aren't slow, much less stalling like that. I also saw Steam acting like the download was successful. So, I had to use the uninstall option and then select install, like when it wasn't installed yet.

This may be why some have a broken CP2077 installation.

Yes, the patch has those things in it, but as usual, AMD marketing never missing a chance to f everything up, have not released the new Adrenalin (sp?) driver update that was meant to coincide with the release of patch 2.3. When those drivers are eventually released the new FSR options will show up in the game's settings menu.

Looks like they will let us go back versions! Especially in Steam!

So far, I only ran CP2077 for benchmarks.
