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!

371 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I need to meet her but The problem is I can’t seem to get Johnny to pop up and trigger the conversation between us too so I can take the pill so then I can get the mission to go to at three

370 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Man, don't do that, you should go back to Placide and Bridget help you to go inside Johnny memories, you will miss a lot, I mean a loooot of Johnny's action. Go back and don't mess with Vodoo boys.

369 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Same crap is happening to me, completed all my main missions atm and hers is the only one i cant do. Can't call or, text her, even showing up to her does nothing. Super fucking annoying because i can't progress the story. Wish there was a way to fix this.

368 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Bug report: Quest:Never fade away. Aftert the quest Never fadeaway, the Cyberware button no longer works. I can't activate any cyberware anymore. Big bummer. ANyone else got this bug?

367 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Delamain missing from The Heist mission. When I walk up to it, it shows the sit icon but it's like the car fell through the map. Tried restarting the game and restarting the PC and nothing has helped. I literally can't progress in the story right now at one of the earliest missions... PC btw on Steam

366 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

This guy won't move to let me get to my quest

365 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

After finishing the last Delamain mission to hunt down his children, my calls have been looking weird portrait wise. The top middle and bottom parts of the portrait will all move around on the (call) screen in a horizotal manner. Delamain also looked like this in the main screens during his final mission. This is something that started affecting me early game, and is still a problem 12 hours afterwards. It's pretty fucking annoying to be honest, but not gamebreaking.

364 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

357 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

On PC btw. And just to specify, it takes me to the elevator and the doors open, but to an empty shift, and the call button doesn't work either.

356 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

So was playing the gimme death mission, and encountered a glitch I've not seen anyone else have. Its not the easily fixed one, aka not being able to talk to the guy, I can't even use the elevator to get to him. Its not there, non-existent. So unless there's stairs I literally can not continue this mission. I've even tried restarting Ghost town, the mission before it, and its till bugged!

355 CrazyChuckalmost 4 yearsReport

Got a game breaking bug on the main mission "Never Fade Away" where outside when you are about to go up the stairs the game crashes to desktop, Idea's?

354 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I am able to trigger the bug again, by simply leaving after the "point of no return - message" and coming back in my old save.

353 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

After siding with netwatch during the voodo boys main job Arc, and killing all the voodo boys, including Placide. Now, no new main jobs are appearing, or even showing up in the journal. Is there any solution to this? Something I am missing? Also, I do not have a saved back up and cannot try a different route.

352 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Yo, dunno if you've still got this issue, but this stopped happening to me after a random gig. I wasn't really paying attention, so I don't know when specifically, but it did eventually go away.

351 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

The action buttons in the bottom right corner don't disappear. Stuck on controls with the scroll dialogue displayed.

350 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Reloading a 20 h+ old save seems to fix the problem, but i'm not really interested in that, any ideas why the guard won't move?

349 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Main story: when leaving the border with Judy and Panam I keep getting flatlined after crossing the barrier, so annoying I can't finish the game.

348 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Xbox One: Started 'The Heist' mission by talking with Jackie, then left because I wanted to do other stuff. Came back to finish the mission, Jackie already walked through the door to Afterlife, so I could not continue the mission.

347 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Xbox One X: During mission Queen of the Highway Panam will continually say "What's up V?" Due to the open speech prompt before entering the Basilisk tank. She will not stop saying it if you are in close proximity to her. Reloading saves does not fix it. I am about to finish the mission to see if the bug persists after its completion.

346 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

PS4 Pro: 1. Title screen movie skips a ton of frames. 2. Nudity Censor randomly turned itself off while I was on stream after the game crashed. 4. Music Censor stopped working. 5. Game crashes on loading screen randomly after main quest cutscenes. 6. Character gets flung far distances randomly while exploring. 7. Cars sometimes get flung far distances randomly. 8. NPCs randomly cause car to get flung away upon interaction. 9. Very unresponsive/broken aim assist.
