While CD Projekt Red is sadly moving on from Cyberpunk 2077 to focus on the sequel, meaning we won't be getting any more expansions or significant updates, there's still a wee bit of polishing to do.

On Nvidia graphics cards only, of course. And only for Nvidia graphics cards that are capable of delivering a decent frame rate in the incredibly demanding path-traced RT Overdrive mode.
