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!

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!

I have three major bugs. Cannot continue main quest. 1) Go over the plan with Takemura. He is standing in wrong place (watched walkthroughs) and I cant talk to him. 2) Dream on quest is stuck Neutralize the attackers part where is the van. 3) Johnny is missing in war pigs after I killed the dude.

579 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I have the exact same problem, stuck on the quest automatic love! No matter what I do, Lizzies bar is permanently closed. I have tried reloading previously saved games and fast forwarding time between 6pm - 6am and the bar is still closed.. So then I decided I would do side missions and other main missions instead, hoping that it would get fixed upon returning.... and still no luck. I am up to a point where I can’t progress my main missions and my side missions are extremely hard.

578 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

The game also says I am encumbered but I am 120 pounds under weight.

577 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

During the never fade away mission after you find Alt I am unable to use my right stick to aim. It works in camera mode and in the menus but I cannot operate my camera with my gun drawn or holstered. I have reloaded the game and that didn't work. I reloaded to before that part in the mission and it works fine, but once you find Alt the camera is inoperable. As of not I am stuck and unable to progress in the game.

576 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Ever since the Panam Story Mission (where you mount the gun on top of her car) the control hints will not disappear. Have already tried reloading, restarting etc. it stays no matter what I have tried.

575 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Game won’t spawn final mission. Is there something I’m missing; do you need to be max level?

574 You gotta be kidding mealmost 4 yearsReport

Any time I get into a firefight, especially in the early panam missions, the game bugs out, then doesn’t allow me to aim my gun or shoot, all my controls via scanning with the d pad also work inconsistently at best. I basically can’t play the game and get into any firefights which is the point of this silly game

573 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

ok i try it out

572 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Love Like Fire worked. The cannons have approximately 14-17k lives. Took me about 20 minutes. Just hit the middle one to try it out. And activated when turned off for this time the damage report.

571 Bimaalmost 4 yearsReport

On PS4, AFTER update 1.04 Enemies suddenly become invincible (cannot be killed) after installing rocket hand cyberware. Afterwards the game gets more and more prone to crashes randomly. So frustrating.

570 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Automatic Love: No option to retrieve weapons or even leave Clouds. Didn't kill Woodman and accidentally triggered him BEFORE seeing Tom.

569 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

568 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

564 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Jackie doesn’t spawn outside of the “afterlife” to be able to start the “Heist” mission. Cannot access the afterlife

563 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

jackie can turn invisible during the scene where you attempt to escape from arasaka tower and fall down with the relic.

562 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I can't move fast or run after being saved and having Johnny in my head

561 Isaaxalmost 4 yearsReport

Cannot do quickhacks anymore after sometime doing the side jobs, seriously breaking the game.

560 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Stuck on a call with panama. Won't let me continue missions or etc. Can't save or anything. When I reload previous saves when it comes back that point it continues. 🤦🏾‍♂️

559 PoisonDartalmost 4 yearsReport

So I’m trying to complete this undiscovered gig, but when I go to it, the fixer (Wakako) never calls me nor does the gig appear or update in my journal, which means I can’t complete it. All of the doors are locked and the ones that should be openable aren’t. I’ve tried reloading my saves, and the problem still persists. Has anyone else encountered this problem and know how to fix it? Also if anyone has this gig completed, what is the name of it?

558 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

In the heist mission

557 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Can't get my weapon from where it was stowed away in the car, for when you need to take out the drones outside the car window. Frustrating.

556 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I have 3 issues: 1. Not every key can be changed. As a left handed, I need to change every key on the keyboard which. In Cyberpunk this isnt possible, which makes it very difficult to play. 2. Sometimes, I can't loot things on the ground, especially drones. 3. The character slides across couches and small desks which makes some things very difficult to reach.

555 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Post game when the credits roll it gives two options. Go pack to main menu or continue playing. Every time I would select continue it would take me back to the mission called meet Hanako at embers and it would give me the post game stuff. Anyone had any luck in a solution?? Cause I got the best ending (Nomad and I don’t want to re do the whole story)

554 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I have the same issue but after I would select to play post game it would take me back to the last main mission but still give me the end game stuff??
