Cyberpunk 2077 patch fixes wet roads, GPU memory optimization on PS4, more

Roads will no longer look dry after it rains.

Patch 1.31 for Cyberpunk 2077 is now available on PC, consoles, and Stadia.

The patch addresses some gameplay, visual, and UI issues, which did not affect all players.

With gameplay, one of the changes includes an adjustment to enemies’ stealth detection speed, which will depend on game difficulty.

Visuals include a fix that ensures roads look wet after it rains. The issue stemmed from ongoing work on the Wet Surfaces System. With this update, wet surfaces “should look more detailed than they did even before the issue occurred.”

A couple of descriptions missing with the UI have been fixed, and an issue with players being unable to claim in-game Registration Rewards has been addressed.

You can look over the patch notes for the update below.
