Last week Cyberpunk 2077 finally made its debut, which currently looks best on strong computers with cards NVIDIA GeForce RTX (thanks to Ray Tracing). Good rasterization performance in Full HD and Quad HD is also achieved by the AMD Radeon RX 6000 cards, which made their first debut. The situation is completely different with the Xbox One and PlayStation 4. The quality of this release was shrouded in mystery before the premiere, because CD Projekt RED was not eager to present them. When something was finally shown, it was only for Xbox One X, Xbox Series X (backwards compatible), PlayStation 4 Pro and PlayStation 5 (also backwards). After the premiere, unfortunately, it turned out that the console editions are disastrous in terms of technical refinement (or rather, underdevelopment).
