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!

Any time I get out of a vehicle I have driven, my body glitches all over the place until I restart my game and then as soon as I drive another vehicle, it instantly glitches out, I have been rely on fast travel which sucks.

432 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Cutscene after the control tower on the quest With A Little Help From My Friends gets stuck with Panam resting on V's shoulder, without progressing dialogue. Got stuck for 15 mins, reloaded my save and tried again, same problem. This has happened over and over and over again now and I'm unsure how to progress this mission further.

431 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

There is a blue touchpad to the right of the door with "Call" on it. You need to interact with that touchpad and the door to Judy's apartment will open. There are a few missions where these will pop up, but the one you're talking about was the first one I encountered and I thought it was a glitch too, for about 20 minutes.

430 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Did you have any luck?, I have same problem but have no saves before doin this mission

429 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Click the button next to the door (I had the same problem)

428 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

‘The Information’ I can’t interact with the bouncers at Lizzie’s at all to initiate the mission, so I’m unable to progress the story beyond this point.

427 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Just beat the game and after the credits roll it gives you an option to continue right before the last mission with rewards for completing the game and when I choose that option it takes me to the main menu and if I click continue from last save it takes me right back to the credits and I have no other save files. So all I can do is either start a brand new game or be stuck in the credit loop anyone else have this issue

426 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

After Panam's final mission, Queen of The Highway, I couldn't enter scanner mode. The effect over the screen and reticule didn't change, however things were still highlighted in the environment, but I couldn't scan anything. Had to revert back to a previous save.

425 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Note. Fixed by turning off hints

424 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Have an issue where I have like 8 action button options showing up at all times even during cutscenes and dialogue.

For some reason a mission I have called Both sides, now where you have to go and see Judy is really bugged I can’t even go into the apartment I would get to the door but her door would open but everything else works fine no other side mission is glitched. Anyone else have this problem?!??

420 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

When going down the elevator on the mission Automatic love, which leads into the next quest tapeworm, the elevator door doesn't open and your stuck on the top floor or elevator because when you jump down there is an automatic death while scaling down. was supposedly fixed with the new update but still broken for a lot of people. Also, auto-saved screwed me because I don't have a save before I started the mission so I have to put the game down till this gets resolved or start completely over.

419 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

412 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I finish the "tutorial" story line through Watson without any crashes or freezing, then as soon as I wake up after dealing with Johnny in the apartment, my game constantly crashes, usually about once an hour. Sometimes I can go 2 hours before it sends me back to the xbox dashboard and have to load back in. Has happened on 2 different save. Cleaned the cache, hard reset my xbox one, and even uninstalled and installed it again to see if there were corrupted files. Deleted all saves as well.

411 WADAWDalmost 4 yearsReport

same mission for me but hes stuck inside afterlife and the bouncer wont let me pass to talk to him

410 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I am doing The Heist mission and the Delamain vehicle that you are supposed to get into with Jackie isn’t showing up. This means I can’t progress the story and I’ve tried everything. I just better not have to start over because of this one dumb glitch.

409 Hannahalmost 4 yearsReport

I have completed the mission Double Life and have included Judy whenever I could, however, she does not not call to arrange a new job. As such, I cannot continue with her story line as I cannot unlock Both Sides Now.

408 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Delamain is forever glitched in my phone. Some gigs are broken, example the gig "getting warmer" all the doors are locked snd say no power. All the footage i see in footage of people playing the game the doors are open. Im getting frustrated and sad.

407 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I have texture glitch where adds and signs have pieces of the texture are missing on PS5

406 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I’ve got “Phantom of Night City” and “Demons of War” completed, but they haven’t disappeared from my mission journal. Delamain remains elusive at every turn, and “The Frolics of Councilwoman Cole” is also completed, yet won’t finish with a phone call/removal from journal either. Not to mention the billions of visual and scripting bugs. Now I’m afraid that I’ve progressed too far for these to ever be completed, so I might have to replay the story after all of these things are patched.

405 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I have a texture glitch on corpses where the texture is stretching off screen and shacking on PS5. Pops up on every other dead body..

404 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I finished the quest WAR PIGS. But in my Questlog there is still the "last step" "- Talk with Johnny active. His marker is unreachable. I tried also go back to the original quest location, there is no johhny... "activeQuests": "6B577A51814903CA", "trackedQuestEntry": "quests/minor_quest/mq041_corpo/corpo/01a_talk_with_johnny", "trackedQuest": "LocKey#10478", Any idea how to fix this ?
