List of Bugs Top.png

More than a year after the release of Cyberpunk 2077, the game has finally been revived from the backlash it has received since its launch. Read on to learn more about Cyberpunk 2077's most controversial glitches, its latest bugs, and their fixes.

List of Bugs and Glitches

Most Bugs Are Now Fixed

With the release of Patches 1.5 and 1.6, you'll be pleased to know that there are no longer game breaking bugs for Cyberpunk 2077. Although like most games, it's not entirely devoid of mistakes, so keep an eye out for minor bugs.

Wondering if Cyberpunk 2077 is worth playing now? Check out our article to see what has changed and what has been fixed.

Is Cyberpunk 2077 Fixed?

Stuck on “Talk to Viktor” Objective in The Ripperdoc

Cyberpunk 2077 The Ripperdoc 03.png

A bug has occurred for some players which prevents them from proceeding past the “Talk to Viktor” Objective. When talked to, players find themselves only able to ask “How's Biz?”.

Although we were not able to confirm this bug ourselves, players have reported being able to resolve the issue by saving and reloading the game. Be sure to try this first when you encounter this problem!

Enemies Clip Through Walls

In the escape section of The Heist, the Leader of the Arasaka Guards will normally emerge from an elevator and attack the player. However, this bug will cause him to instead clip crazily through the walls and put up no resistance against the player.

Although this may seem advantageous, it may actually cause the defeated Leader to fall through the floor, making it impossible to receive his Access Chip and forcing the player to revert to a previous save.

Even in the following elevator scene with Jackie, the slain Leader's corpse may continue to occasionally fall through the ceiling into the floor.

Characters' Mouths do Not Move

One of the most common bugs in Cyberpunk 2077 is characters' mouths not moving. During in-game dialouge or even cutscenes, you are likely to see at least one character who is talking without moving their face. In the beginning of the game, this can often be seen with Jackie, since he is frequently speaking with V.

T-Posing NPCs

T-Pose

You may come across some NPCs that are locked in a T-pose. They will still be able to interact with you, but getting them to stop posing can be quite difficult.

Game Textures Glitch Out

During your playthrough of Cyberpunk 2077, you may notice many strange occurances with in-game textures. During our playthrough, some examples included V's knuckles being see-through, NPC models freezing, and characters appearing out of nowhere.

Gun Clipping

During some scenes in Cyberpunk 2077, you may have noticed weird moments when some characters have their gun clipped to some parts of their body. This ruins the immersion and emotional weight of some scenes.

As of patch 1.6, there are still cases of the Gun Clipping glitch although it shows up very rarely.

Flying Cars

Perhaps one of the funniest glitches in the game, the Flying Car glitch was notorious specially during Cyberpunk 2077's launch. This includes the player's car, whether they're inside or not.

Broken Car AI

If you have played Cyberpunk 2077 during launch, you may have noticed cars driving through barriers, and only going in circles when in roundabouts. So watch out whenever you're walking on the pavements.

Fixed Bugs and Glitches

1st Place bug in The Beast in Me: Badlands

Cyberpunk 2077 Luigi Bug trigger

A number of players have encountered bug during The Beast in Me: Badlands side quest. It's where the player finishes first but the game recognizes Luigi Antonowicz as the winner of the race.

Has it been resolved?

As of patch 1.6, this bug still happens often and there is no fix out yet. But you can avoid this bug by ignoring Luigi, doing so makes the game recognize V and Claire as the winners of the race.

Map Glitch

Cyberpunk 2077 Map Glitch

Some players in PC may have noticed map glitches in their game. This is caused by NVIDIA's latest game ready driver update 522.25 last October 12, 2022.

Has it been resolved?

Check out NVIDIA's Fix for this problem if you do not wish to roll back your driver.

If NVIDIA's fix is too complicated for you, you can try rolling back your driver by going to Device Manager > Display Adapters > Double click on your GPU > Drivers > Roll Back Driver.

Getting Stuck in the Mission Love Like Fire

After The Heist mission, you will awake as Johnny Silverhand. While playing as him, you will make your way to a helicopter and fly towards a tower. Your objective will be to take out the enemies on the roof, but the combat turrents will be invincible. If you experience this bug, you will be unable to move forward with the main story line.

You will also appear to not take any damage, making you stuck in the helicopter. It will continue to circle the roof until you take out all enemies, which is impossible. The bullet fire will appear to pass through the enemy turrets.

Has it been resolved?

Based on our investigations after upgrading to Patch 1.05, this bug has been resolved!

Takemura Call Stuck in Down on the Street

Cyberpunk 2077 - Plan with Takemura.png

During Down on the Street, Takemura calls you but doesn't say anything. This could possibly hinder the player's progress in the main story as V is required to respond to Takemura's call.

Has it been resolved?

Based on our investigations after upgrading to Patch 1.11, this bug has been resolved!

Down on the Street Walkthrough and Rewards

Jackie is Inaccessible in the “Talk to Jackie” Objective at the End of The Pickup

At the end of the The Pickup, when you exit the building, you'll find that corpos surrounding the building. If Jackie is not outside with you and remains in the building, one of the corpos will block your way from accessing him, rendering the Talk to Jackie objective undoable.

Jackie Door Bug.jpg

A possible way to circumvent this is by not rushing out to talk to whoever is outside, waiting for Jackie to follow you. If he's in the doorway and is stuck there, it's possible to talk to him at a certain angle.

Has it been resolved?

Based on our investigations after upgrading to Patch 1.05, this bug has been resolved!

Stuck in the booth after talking to rogue. loading doesn’t resolve and happens every time I reload an even when reloading an earlier save. Crashes!!! Health glitches where I either can’t die with 0 health or my health bar goes from full all the way to 0 and I flatline. Bald on motorcycles and mirrors, Samurai boss at the end of the heist stuck in elevator so I just shot him until he died with no fight or resistance. That off the top of my head, game is a mess should not have been released.

you can jump onto the firescape ladder from the concrete arch/roof part over the steps, but the door on the roof is locked and if you drop down onto the balcony parts these are locked too - it doesn' appear to get a name either, just stays as Undiscovered, who knows what you might find

If you went to the El Coyote bar to start Act 2, that area is much more difficult than Watson district so enemies are skulls. Go back to Watson and continue to level up. Japantown is the next step up for difficulty after Watson.

Playing on X-box One. The GIG: Many Ways To Skin A Cat, is bugged. When "Authorizing Via personal Link" is pressed on the computer. V gets stuck jacked into the computer and there is no way to remove the jack. V is just stuck to the computer and you can move a round a little bit, but nothing happens and you have to re-load the mission or exit to main menu.

Inivisble objects in very high places (only reachable with leg modifications to double jump or charge jump): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDyFAONNJCE

719 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Are you sure you're not overburdened? You can have too many items in your inventory; making you move slowly and not be able to sprint, dash, or w.e. You can see your 'max capacity' in the top right hand of the screen in the inventory menu. Disassembling lower dmg or common items/weapons/clothing should do the trick.

718 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I found moving towards the doors on the back right got them to open. Path on the map led me down the left side of that room where there is no door to continue. But the back wall to the right of that has doors that are supposed to open.

717 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Prompts (zoom in/out, scan, shoot) stuck on bottom right of the screen

Figured out that I should just go into the mission and track the objective to get to their apartment 😐

712 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Bug in “I Fought the Law” mission. I can’t get past “find a way into the Red Queen’s Race” even after I’ve already completed most of it and need to head to the Peralezes’ apartment to update them and get paid. I’ve tried closing the game and heading back to the door into the red queen’s race, but it is still stuck. Anyone just know, and can show me, where on the map the Peralezes apartment is?

711 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I have no idea why I cannot upgrade my items in crafting. I was able to upgrade earlier but now clicking upgrade shows no bar. I can still craft but I cannot upgrade. The upgrade button can be clicked but the bar doesn't show and nothing happens.

710 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I have the same issue. Anyone know a fix?

709 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I actually have the same problem on Gimme danger.. This sucks

708 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

707 Tadusas1almost 4 yearsReport

Got a couple prominent bugs that don't go away: 1. A bug on the mission Gimme Danger, where no matter how many days I wait in game I cant move on in the story. 2. Whenever a character calls me and I answer, Delamin's body will be clipped through the character's call tab. 3. After doing the first mission with Panam and being jacked into the truck's turret, the Shoot, Scanner, Zoom in and out buttons, the crosshair won't go away.

706 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

dont have to reload because of it tho? XD its just funny to see no point rebinding it

705 Anonymous 704almost 4 yearsReport

download a mod in nexus mods, makes the dashing key into your left ctrl button. so you dont dash with double tap, helps with avoiding especially that, had to reload so many times :))

704 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Anybody run into a bug, where guns just straight up don’t show info, so you cant really tell their names, iconic or other class, damage, dps, like just the picture. Dropping everything and picking up doesn’t fix it. Getting new weapons, selling, upgrading, crafting anew doesn’t help. Older saves are acting the same. Anyway to fix it without reinstalling the game?
