Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.31 Upgrades AutoDrive and Photo Mode
Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.31 brings smoother vehicle AutoDrive navigation, new flexibility for Photo Mode poses, and fixes for a pink screen bug tied to NVIDIA Reflex. The update also resolves multiple quest blockers and platform-specific visual glitches on PC and Mac.
Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.31 is live across platforms, bringing key navigation improvements, Photo Mode enhancements, and targeted fixes for quests and hardware-specific graphics bugs.
Vehicle AutoDrive and Quality of Life
AutoDrive receives a major overhaul, allowing vehicles to drive smoothly to selected points, overtake blocking cars, and bypass traffic lights without stopping. Free Roam mode now adheres to city traffic rules more reliably. The patch also stops Johnny from constantly spawning in the passenger seat when using Delamain Cabs and fixes flashing wheel colors on the Yaiba ARV-Q340 Semimaru when applying CrystalCoat.
Photo Mode and Quest Fixes
Photo Mode now supports almost all new Update 2.3 poses across any character gender and disables NPC collision to make stacking objects and positioning characters easier. In the open world, the patch fixes a progression blocker where River's follow-up text never arrives during Motorbreath, prevents the Yaiba Semimaru from flipping over during chases, and ensures players can acquire the vehicle through Autofixer even if they missed The Hunt.
PC and Mac Hardware Fixes
PC users running NVIDIA Reflex alongside DLSS Frame Generation will no longer experience a pink screen bug, and Path Tracing now activates correctly in scenarios where it previously failed. Mac players benefit from fixes that stop a permanent white screen during The Information braindance, correct Screen Space Reflections presets, and resolve inverted behavior on the background audio mute toggle.
General Settings and UI
A new vignette toggle has been added under Settings, Graphics, and Basic. Text message display issues from Delamain have been resolved, and localization errors across multiple languages are fixed. On the App Store version, a bug that caused the game to freeze on the initial breaching screen has also been squashed.
Why this patch matters
Patch 2.31 acts as a welcome housekeeping update. The AutoDrive improvements make getting around Night City noticeably less frustrating, while the technical fixes clear out stubborn bugs across PC and Mac builds.
