CD Projekt has released Patch 2.31 for Cyberpunk 2077 across PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Mac, and Nintendo Switch 2. The update introduces a much-needed upgrade to AutoDrive, allowing vehicles to navigate Night City more smoothly, overtake traffic, and drive without stopping at red lights. Free Roam mode has also been enhanced to better follow traffic rules. In addition, Photo Mode has been refined with expanded pose compatibility and adjustments to NPC collision, making creative shots easier to stage.
Beyond these features, the update delivers a broad set of bug fixes across quests, graphics, and general performance. Several story missions, including Motorbreath and Nitro (Youth Energy), received targeted fixes to prevent progression blockers and crashes. The patch also resolves technical issues tied to NVIDIA Reflex, path tracing, and graphics settings on PC and Mac, while introducing stability improvements across all platforms.
