Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 1.23: PS4/Pro vs PS5 - Ready For PSN Store Comeback?

After being delisted from the PSN store in December 2020 due to stability issues, Cyberpunk returns for digital purchase on PS4, PS4 Pro and PS5. It coincides with a new patch 1.23, promising a slew of key fixes - all tested here against the last patch 1.20. Tom compares the performance between each.

So basically they should have just delayed the game and made this for next gen and pc only

The city was always empty on PS4/One S but now it's literally a ghost town.

"50, 000 NPCs used to spawn here, now it's a ghost town."

[ToadyEN]

They've not put much in the patch notes as it'd be embarrassing for the public to know that all they've done is reduce the NPC quantity.

[NahrAlma]

"How is the performance?"
"Well.... it did not crash, so that is a huge win."
lol

"Barely enough time for me to swerve out of the way" *rams into barricades*

CDPR trying to fix this game reminds me of the office, when Kevin spills his chili and tries to scoop it back into the pot.

"Runs surprisingly well on PS5" uh oh we've heard this before...

[Zachary_Dale]

Hard to believe they're still developing this game 6 months after release.

[mspeter]

Honestly, that game streaming issue will never be resolved.

[badabingbadaboom]

If they had delayed this game by another year it still wouldn't be ready

[SkywatcherAnomalous]

Not one npc just walking around that’s just randomly there. Honestly that sucks makes the world look empty.

Physical disc is like $20. Never buy this on the PSN store.

Edit: of course, if you have digital only console, this does not apply.

[JudgementNutter]

It's nice of CDPR to make a silent hill game, low poly enemies teleporting in front of you is terrifying! Not to mention those zombie headshaking horrors.

[bbcheng]

I still laugh out loud after hearing ps4 "professional" every time.

[addamrobin]

They literally removed 95% of the NPCs in the PS4 version just so they can put it back in the store
It's a ghost town 😂

[erskine]

An absolute embarrassment for CD Projekt and potentially fatal reputation hit.

[OoXLRoO]

When Days Gone has more life in its world than Cyberpunk 2077…

[ngolokantecar]

without npcs this game feels even more like a early ps3 open world game

[aldolozano]

22 fps reminds me of the PS3 era when that was an acceptable frame rate
