Cyberpunk 2077 path tracing ON & OFF comparison (1440p Quality DLSS)

In this video, we take a look at a specific well-known Night City motel in Cyberpunk 2077, where we look at the differences when using the recently released path tracing versus normal ray tracing. Can you spot the differences? We certainly can especially as light sources illuminate far more realistically with path tracing enabled. We think there is some merit having darker scenes with path tracing disabled, the result is you tend to lose a lot of the details. Whilst for now Cyberpunk 2077 path tracing is expensive, hopefully it’s something that will be manageable on current gen consoles as well in the future.
