Cyberpunk 2077: A Retro Movie Adaptation Concept Takes Shape

Using today's advanced technology, fans are crafting impressive concepts, and a retro-styled Cyberpunk 2077 movie adaptation is the latest creation making waves.

Several tech enthusiasts have showcased their work, with YouTube channel Sora AI leading the charge. Their latest project reimagines the popular CD Projekt RED game as an 80s action movie, presenting familiar characters in a style reminiscent of that era.

While some characters have undergone significant stylistic changes, they remain easily recognizable. The concept includes characters from both the base game and the Phantom Liberty expansion.

These impressive visuals are partly due to advancements in DLSS 4 technology. The new Vision Transformer model within DLSS 4 significantly enhances image quality in super-resolution and ray reconstruction. The improved frame generation, producing two or three intermediate frames instead of one, also boosts performance.

Testing the performance of DLSS 4 on an RTX 5080 with an updated version of Cyberpunk 2077 showed remarkable results. With path tracing enabled, the game consistently achieved over 120 frames per second at 4K resolution, a testament to the power of DLSS 4.
