Cyberpunk 2077 Won't Offer Ray-Tracing At Launch For AMD Based Graphics

That's a shame for AMD-based graphics card owners because Cyberpunk looks to be a perfect ray-tracing showcase with its neon lighting and dark, moody interiors.

If you're a console gamer, you're likely wondering what all the fuss is about, but this concerns you, too.

Both the PS5 and Xbox Series S/X will use AMD-based parts, meaning you're going to have to wait a while for the full Cyberpunk 2077 experience on those platforms.
