CD Project Red, known for their ambitious projects, faced a Herculean task in adapting the game to the Switch 2's unique architecture.

Despite the challenges, modern tech like DLSS and improved hardware specs allowed Cyberpunk 2077 to run better on the Switch 2 than on older consoles.
The Switch 2 version offers players two visual modes to choose from, balancing quality and performance to ensure a smooth gaming experience. Maintaining a minimum frame rate of 30 frames per second was crucial for CD Project Red, showcasing their commitment to delivering a polished product.
