One of the most fascinating and at the same time disturbing aspects in the culture of cyberpunk 2077 (here is ours review), it is certainly the interaction that mankind has developed towards robotics. The so said Cyberware, or robotic grafts inside the body, aimed at improving its capacity and performance.
During your trip to Night City, there will be many NPCs that you will meet with the most disparate Cyberware, making them sometimes charismatic but more frequently horribly monstrous.
Do you want to become a new Robocop? The procedure is very simple: just get a few thousand "eddies" (the game currency, ed) and go to the Scalpel, recognizable on the map by the icon in the shape of a "scissors" (actually in surgical jargon they are called grasping forceps ed.). These are "freelance" surgeons specialized in implanting mechanical parts and will satisfy all your strangest requests. Only in rare cases will you be able to receive them as a reward from quests.
The first thing to know is that Cyberware is divided into 3 types, active, passive ed automatic, so sometimes you will have to activate it, other times it will work in the background.
The modifications can be placed in various parts of the body:
- Frontal cortex (3 slots)
Systems:
- circulatory (3 slots)
- eye (1 slots)
- immune (2 slots)
- nervous (2 slots)
- integumentary (3 slots)
- operating (1 slots)
- Skeleton (2 slots)
- Hands (1 slots)
- Arms (1 slots)
- Legs (1 slots)
Each modification will have an increasing level of quality, the higher it is and the more upgrades we can acquire:
- common
- uncommon
- rare
- epic
- legendary
The advice of the editorial staff
What we will do with this guide will not be limited to a simple analytical index of the various cyberware available in the game, but build V with the best available grafts (the discussion should then be deepened for each build), making it become an unstoppable machine, like the famous Adam smasher, the most famous Cyborg in Cyberpunk 2077.
