Cyberpunk 2077 was already destined to be a game that demands significant time investment — and now we've come to the realisation that we're also going to be spending hours upon hours playing with the title's photo mode.
Going by its reveal trailer, said photo mode looks impressively in-depth. It's got all kinds of sliders that you can mess around with, and yes, it lets you see your custom character from a third person perspective. Simply put, we can't wait to try it out.
So... Can this thing be used during the game's, er, raunchier scenes? Because that right there is an internet phenomenon just waiting to be unleashed.

I'm saying it now: this will be the horniest photo mode ever released.
Time to fulfil my teenage dream, direct and star in my own Brazzers film!
Do you guys believe it will be ACTUALLY released on dec 10?))
@Blacksmith1985 Oh yeah of course, some copies are being shipped now, we are in the endgame my friend!
@ShogunRok when will the review be released? Any ETA?
Will it be you or Sammy reviewing it?
Now THAT is a photomode.
Much fun will be had with this.
@whizzkidd @ShogunRok is already playing this game I bet. He's the RPG or openworld reviewer on here. He's probably like 750hrs+ in.
1000x plus shots of Judy incoming.
@ShogunRok
I do love me a good photo mode.
Looks Sexy an all.....plenty of sliders.
So photomode on day 1 December 10,or a later date?
@ShogunRok 😂😂😂
@hulkie No mention of it being released at a later date, so I assume it's in there at launch.
Yeeeeeeeeeeesssssssss!!! Think ill be picking it up sooner than I thought that looks great
I guess that's neat?, if you are the type of person to take photo's in a video game for some reason. I don't really see the appeal in that. But the real question is, does the combat system still play terribly?
So the game went gold before do we get a broken mess on a disc with a gamesize patch leaving us with a fancy coaster? If thats the case its easier for me too get a real nextgen copy.
@Blacksmith1985 oh definitely this time, I know a shop owner and he's got his copies and an email about its street date
@Blacksmith1985 CDPR don't tend to be Bethesda levels of broken but they do tend to have their issues, I'm expecting it to release but I doubt it will be perfect. It took Witcher 3 a while to get to the point its at today.
I doubt it would be pushed back 8 days away from the release. Being skeptical about it actually coming out on the 10th is just being overactive and trying to ride a dead horse.
@Robinsad Life is all about trail and error I am hoping the delays were so the "errors" that came with the Witcher 3 do not occur in CyberPunk 2077.
@GamingVeteran I'm with you. I don't get the appeal...I would rather play the game than spend time taking screenshots. I have very limited game time though, so this is probably for people that do platinums and such, or just have time to burn. I kind of envy them, actually lol
Seems like a cool feature. I always like games with a photo mode.
As someone who has done plenty of amatuer actual photography, I can't believe people actually care about or are excited about photo modes in any game. I always thought that was something nobody actually ever used... I just don't get it. If you'd rather take photos instead of playing the game, that sounds to me like a boring game.
SEVEN DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!
@NEStalgia it baffles me too to be fair, but if people like it and get enjoyment from it, meh crack at it I guess.
Swell. Now how about a third person toggle during, y'know, the actual gameplay.
@Jimmer-jammer Yes it does sound like a photographers dream...IN THE REAL WORLD, not in a video game. That is where you are missing the point. If someone came up to me and showed me a screenshot they took in a video game, I would probably laugh in their face. Loudly.
@Jimmer-jammer Fair enough, but it still surprises me that it's a feature that actually has an audience. Especially among those that have access and ability to do something more useful with their eye for composition than doctoring together a bunch of video game screenshots.
The "everything including the kitchen sink" design instead of just focusing on the darned game seems to be rampant in AAA games though. It's like spending a ton of time working on the companion app for your short films.
am I the only one seeing this game in this trailer now and thinking that this looks kinda plastic and crappy?? I know the game is massive and I'm probably one of the biggest CD Project Reds fans because of all Witcher games, but this doesnt look that good at all... hhmmmm
The features look impressive but that video almost gave me a seizure.
@Jimmer-jammer @GamingVeteran @NEStalgia
To each their own, but as a digital artist/designer the quality of modern game visuals to me can be breathtaking. Having a good photo mode allows for the ability to create images that look nothing like a straight up "gameplay" screenshot.
Go check out http://deadendthrills.com for an example of what in game images are capable of. This dude's been breaking into games for longer than I can remember and taking some truly stunning shots long before photo modes were even invented.
@whizzkidd
Not sure if this was answered already but the review embargo is December 7th 9pm PST.
@DonJorginho those could magically dissapear
Got a shipping info check, email notification from Best Buy. So Dec 10th is the release date.
The photo mode is over the top crazy. Counting down the days.
