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!

For me, the turrets are indestructible in the Love like Fire mission. Everyone else can be killed, but the helicopter won't land on the roof because the turrets can't be destroyed.

522 Toddalmost 4 yearsReport

I can't pull out any weapons, swap weapons in inventory, hack, and I'm also getting the bug with Jackie in the Pickup mission

521 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Same issue here. Some of them don’t even have delemain, they just kinda scroll in parts occasionally lining up to show their face

520 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I also had this problem. Scan was fixed by reloading

519 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Same kind of thing happening to me. Disabling Cinematic does not fix the issue for me. It still comes up even while disabled!

518 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

So i’ve played all the missions in the Act 2 except for the tapeworm and the one where Takemura calls you for the parade plan. The problem is the parade mission is the only one left behind and it seems bugged because no matter how much time i skip, he won’t call

517 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

No matter which save I load into, I get a dialogue from an old mission with Johnny Silverhand speaking. Text stays on screen. Random things make it pop back up, even with dialogue cinematic turned off. Turning it off will make it go away, but it will come back even while disabled.

516 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Stuck on the mission the pickup, at the very last of it (I’m assuming) all I need to do is call dex but the mf doesn’t answer. I know he calls you when leaving the maelstrom hangout but the prompt to call dex is still there. I’ve tried reloading a save/restarting didn’t change anything.

515 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

You probably have too much guns and loot in your inventory. Disassemble or sell some stuff in your inventory.

514 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

They are the turret controls from Panam’s mission where you ride passenger and use her turret. I just went back to the badlands for her next mission and when I stood beside her truck it gave me the turret reticle and the actual ability to zoom in and out as if I was jacked in. No fix that I can find. It’s still there.

513 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

After completing"I walk the line". The whole hub still shakes as if the virus is still there. I sided with militech. I continued playing thinking it'd go away, and have missed the chance to go back now. Can I fix this?

512 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

My character won't run unless I'm in a mission .

511 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

it is a simple fix just turn the subtitles off and then on again and it goes away

510 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Time is stuck and will not progress after the quest. "Life In Wartime" There is apparently no way to fix this or get past this bug that I have found currently. To flesh this out a little more. After talking to Hellman in the apartment you fall to the floor and talk to Johnny who is sitting on a bench. This will speed up time until 10 PM, however, it will not go past 10 PM unless you skip time. However even after doing this time still won't progress. This bug makes it impossible to progress.

509 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I also have this. Posted a pic

508 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I have the sniper rifle HUD permanently stuck on screen.

507 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

The game doesn’t let me chose what to say

506 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

After talking to Meredith Stout, Jackie never calls and doesn't spawn in front of the All Foods, even though his bike is there and it forced you out of the car when you pull up to the bike

505 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Other vehicle has no light in the night.... Or you can see it when you are at a certain distance but light disapear when you come close to it.

504 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

After the mision "the heist" my health bar stays empty and says "0 0" at the right side of the bar and also it made me immortal

503 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Sometimes the square that gives you info about an item on the floor stays no matter what, even if you aren't looking at that item and it stays until you look other item

502 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

For whatever reason since i got past the biochip heist every time i load a save i get an audioclip and subtitles that say Johnny: Ha. House is rakin' it in. Wonder what the boss has to say about it The subtitles permanently stay there and if i load a new area the dialogue repeats

501 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

My game now keeps the turret controls in the bottom right no matter what I’m doing. I could be in a convo or a shootout and it gives the options to shoot, zoom in and out and scanner. Any way to get rid of this?

500 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

yes! also happen to me. have you fixed it?

499 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Since I complete Epistrophy, all the call on my phone get the character....and Delamaine in a strange blended way ^^ So every call is a WTF scene

498 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Whenever I continue the game, Jonny says: "Hey, the house is on the verge of luck, what does the boss have to say about it". This just doesn't go away anymore and stays at the bottom of the picture. What can i do to get that away ? I play on german sry

497 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I finished the "Tapeworm" quest and I just cant see the new main quest, what can I do?

496 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

During The Information question I can't talk to the bouncers to get inside the club. Anyone else having this problem

495 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Talk to the bouncers. Sweet jesus let me talk to the bouncers. I just want to pass the prologue. At this point if they said "I don't know your face" "not tonight mate" or "your wearing runners" I would lose my shit. Don't under any circumstance run around doing side jobs until you talk to the bouncers! Start again time....

494 420 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

The Full Disclosure mission is completely bug for me. I can't even find Sarah Databanks at the place where it suppose to be and based on what I saw online, it supposed to have some enemies in the building but the building seems completely empty to me :V I already reinstall the game once and verify integrity files 3 times and it still the same problem :V
