Cyberpunk 2077 - Preem Scopes: A New Mod

A new mod for a better gaming experience

The combat in Cyberpunk 2077 has become significantly less overwhelming thanks to a new modification. This mod greatly simplifies combat and reduces stress through a simple change to the targeting system.

The user interface of Cyberpunk 2077 is impressive. Developer CD Projekt Red effectively communicates information such as health, ammunition, and cyberware abilities while maintaining an immersive and elegant style that is typical of Night City. The same goes for most weapons; when looking through the sights, you can identify distances and ammo counts, often getting you more involved in the world around you. The problem is that this can sometimes be too distracting during a hectic firefight.

The Preem Scopes Modification

Many mods for Cyberpunk 2077 enhance the experience in Night City. With Update 2.0 and Phantom Liberty, modders have released or adapted their work to be compatible with the base game. Enter the Preem Scopes mod by 'theCyanideX', which reduces the visual effects of aiming to make them more manageable during gameplay.

What does the Preem Scopes mod do?

Like the changes brought by the Cyberware mod or the HD overhaul for Cyberpunk, this is a small but incredibly welcome modification that has already gathered thousands of downloads. "It removes scope glitches, scanlines, tinting, and 3D HUD effects," writes theCyanideX. "It also reduces distortion and vignetting."

More details about the mod

There are some direct comparison images for the mod in the RPG game to precisely show what it does. It is part of a larger Preem mod collection that reworks various areas in Cyberpunk such as hair, skin, and beards, making subtle changes. However, note that Preem Scopes does not remove every single additional detail from the scopes, but it significantly eases the use of almost any weapon with a scope through some simple modifications.

Notes from the modder

theCyanideX also mentions that not every scope has been "preemified" yet. So, if you download the mod and find that some are missing, leave a comment and let them know. You can download the Preem Scopes mod now.
