Video: AI 1980s action movie-style adaptation of Cyberpunk 2077 looks dope

Cyberpunk 2077: A Retro Movie Concept Takes Shape

Creating compelling concepts is now easier than ever thanks to modern technology. One such concept gaining traction is a retro-styled Cyberpunk 2077 movie adaptation.

Tech enthusiasts are leveraging today's tools to bring various creative visions to life, and Cyberpunk 2077 is the latest subject. YouTube channel Sora AI, known for innovative experiments, has presented a captivating screen adaptation concept. The video showcases familiar characters reimagined in the aesthetic of 1980s action films.

While some CD Projekt Red characters undergo significant stylistic changes, their identities remain clear. The concept includes characters from both the base game and the Phantom Liberty expansion.

Recent advancements, particularly in DLSS 4 technology (including its new Vision Transformer model), have dramatically improved image quality in super-resolution and ray reconstruction. The enhanced frame generation capabilities of DLSS 4, generating two or three intermediate frames instead of one, also boost performance.

Testing DLSS 4's performance on an RTX 5080 with an updated Cyberpunk 2077 build and path tracing enabled yielded impressive results: a consistent frame rate exceeding 120 FPS at 4K resolution. This demonstrates the significant performance gains offered by the latest DLSS technology.
