The Cyberpunk 2077 weapons setting of the Shadowrun RPG borrows heavily from the 1980s works of Gibson. to the point of feeling dated and retro at times; computer hackers in this setting use brain implants and " Decks " to jack into the " Matrix ," the universal currency is called the " Nuyen ," and urban mercenaries called " Runners " augment themselves with cybernetic implants that can cause dysphoria and alienate them from their own human
Some players believe siding with the Aldecaldos and Panam for the final mission, should V have finished this questline, is meant to be the canon ending to Cyberpunk 2077 . On top of having the most hopeful tone for a cure and outlook for V's future, this is the only opportunity to have a truly happy ending if V romances either Judy or Pa

Cyberpunk was codified by author William Gibson in Neuromancer , a 1984 noir science-fiction novel about a " console cowboy " hacker named Case, a cyborg street samurai named Molly, and an artificial intelligence named Wintermute, who hires them to break it free from its human-imposed cognitive shackles. In Neuromancer , Gibson single-handedly created many of the iconic tropes of the cyberpunk genre : urban sprawls wracked with pollution, mega-corporations that rule the world, a worldwide information network referred to as Cyberspace, and mercenaries with cybernetic and biological augmentati
In Lancer 's setting, the post-scarcity utopian dreams of Union are challenged by the " Corpro-States ," four interstellar corporations that control much of the galactic economy, conquer worlds to boost their profit margins, and own many of the mech licenses players can upgrade and customize in-game. One of the major Corpro-States in Lancer , HORUS, is a faceless OmniNet conspiracy of hackers, techno-gnostics, and trans-humanist radicals who worship RA, an experimental A.I. who ascended to godhood. Appropriately enough, the Titanfall -style mech chassis and A.I. companions HORUS creates have terrifyingly powerful hacking systems, insectile limb arrangements, and ominous mythical names such as " Balor " or " Hydr

True, implementing these solutions on a large scale will take hard work, investment, and far-reaching changes to the structure of societies, but it can be done, as long as people believe it can. And what better way to inspire people to work towards better worlds than by creating simulations of these better worlds for them to explore and experiment w
Though V can turn this opportunity down and return to Earth to live out their remaining days however they'd like, the video messages during the credits imply a lack of closure with the NPCs, including ones that were romanced, as they'll all say they haven't heard from V in some time before the screen fades to bl
The secret ending to Cyberpunk 2077 involves Johnny Silverhand going on a solo mission in V's body to tear Arasaka Tower to the ground. It's a difficult ending to earn and has specific prerequisites. Likewise, this mission is the most difficult version because Johnny will be completely alone, so it exists simply as a fun challenge for players. Additionally, if Johnny dies during this mission, the game will end immediately rather than let the player have another
What endings are available to V beyond Cyberpunk 's point of no return depends solely on which side questlines the player chooses to complete as well as V's relationship with Johnny. However, some other factors can change Cyberpunk 2077 's endings to various degrees. For example, if V chooses to romance Judy or Panam, they can play a role in the final cutscenes and dialogue. But if the player chose River or Kerry, their shared relationship with the protagonist will matter l
