The Cyberpunk 2077 system requirements have been updated with more granular recommendations for PC players, including what you'll need for optimal ray tracing performance.

The new Cyberpunk 2077 system requirements also slightly revise the recommended hardware for the previously announced builds - don't worry if you already had a computer that met the old ones, you should still be fine. Here are all the recommendations, according to CD Projekt Red.

Former GamesRadar+ News Writer

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and was formerly a staff writer at GamesRadar+.
