New Cyberpunk 2077 Update 1.61 Adds Support for FSR 2.1 on PC and Next-Gen Consoles; Full Patch Notes Inside | Biden News

CD Projekt Red has started rolling out Cyberpunk 2077 update 1.61, which contains many fixes and FSR 2.1 support.

As said, this new patch contains various fixes and improvements for quests, visuals and gameplay. In addition, it includes platform-specific fixes, including a fix for a problem in the PC version that caused FPS drops when exiting menus. One of the most interesting changes, however, was included at the bottom of the official release notes – support for AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution 2.1 on PC and next-gen consoles. Whether that means FSR 2.1 is also supported on PlayStation 5 remains to be seen.

AMD recently posted the official source code for its high-scaling tech, with the code also available to Xbox developers. As far as we know, the most recent adaptation of AMD’s high-scaling technology is FSR 2.0 in Scorn. On PlayStation 5, it’s a different story, as last year’s Arcadegeddon is the first title to use AMD’s technology on Sony’s console. At the moment, we are not really sure if there are other PS5 titles using FSR, but we do know that Sony has not officially announced that the technology is implemented in their software packages (SDK).

You will find the release notes for the new patch below:
