For fans of Cyberpunk 2077, the concept of a movie adaptation in a retro style is not just a dream but a tantalizing possibility thanks to today's advanced technology. Enthusiasts and techno-creators are taking advantage of these tools to bring their visions to life, and one such example comes from the YouTube channel Sora AI. Here, the creative experiments continue, this time presenting a screen adaptation of the acclaimed game by CD Projekt RED. The characters, both from the main game and the Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty expansion, are reimagined in a style reminiscent of 1980s action movies, yet they retain their recognizable essence despite significant transformations.
The technological advancements supporting these creative endeavors are noteworthy. Significant enhancements in DLSS 4 technology, including the new Vision Transformer model, have markedly improved image quality through super-resolution and ray reconstruction. Moreover, the new frame generation feature, which creates two or three intermediate frames rather than just one, boosts performance considerably.
Testing the capabilities of DLSS 4 on the RTX 5080 with an updated version of Cyberpunk 2077 showcased impressive results. With path tracing enabled, the game consistently achieved over 120 frames per second at 4K resolution, a testament to the advancements brought by DLSS 4.
