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!

161 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Queen of the highway. Panam repeatedly wont stop saying "Well, what's up, V?" after entering the basilisk and it doesnt go away throughout the whole mission even through the heated scene. Quite immersion breaking.

160 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Game has occasional white flashes and crashes during conversation with dex deshawn every time.

159 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Got the same issue. Cleared out the area pretty early on in the game, got the quest later on and it's gone.

158 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Same, anyone know how to fix this? I have done the 2 GB update, I have restarted my computer, finished extra side missions and main story quests and every time I come back the door is still closed and no prompt.

157 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

In the side job called "The Gig" when I go to collect my reward from Cassius Ryder's ripperdoc shop the prompt to open the door doesn't appear and I am unable to compete the side quest since I can't open the door.

156 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I'm stuck on a mission where after the phone conversation the person I just talk to remains in a 'call' when there's no prompts or ability to close. I can't close the conversation or interact with objects now after the conversation.

150 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

How do games bet away with this crap? If i bought a power drill from B&Q and it did recharge, you would get a refund instantly. But games can sell substandard products that aren't finished properly. Imagine the riots you would get in B&Q in they said soon as you open the box you can't get a refund.

149 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

138 SoulxSlayeralmost 4 yearsReport

On the mission "Never Fade Away" with the objective "Find The Mainframe" after going up the tower in the elevator and getting through the room with a catwalk up above and about 5 enemies in it, walking through the door at the other end has resulted in a hard crash for me every time, it's happened 4 times now, this is after installing the hotfix so not sure if it has anything to do with it. But this is a main story mission and now I'm afraid I'll never beat it.

137 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

I'm having this same exact problem and am currently stuck inside as I type.

136 Anonymousalmost 4 yearsReport

Can someone please help me. I’m in Lizzie bars, and the mission after is to leave the bar and talk to Dex. When I go up to the doors it won’t give me the option to open them. I’ve literally gone through the the entire bar over 100 times looking for an exit, and the doors are glitched and won’t let me out. I’ve restarted the game, my console and I just deleted and redownloaded everything, and I still can’t get outside!!! ):
