Cyberpunk 2077 Endings

The video game has several different outcomes dependent on the choices of V. These endings unlock different achievements and outcomes of the game's story.

Main endings
Hanako Arasaka's ending path will always be available after finishing all of the main quests. To unlock the other endings, you'll have to finish the personal side quests of Rogue Amendiares and Panam Palmer. For the requirments see the table below. The following endings also unlock four achievements.

Path of least resistance
V can also choose "the easy way out" and commit suicide. For this ending, V must choose the first dialogue option available on Misty's rooftop. When Johnny asks if V's sure about their decision, choosing the dialogue option "Could also just put all this to rest", followed by "[Toss pills] I know exactly what we're gonna do." V will have a conversation with Johnny, stating that the only way to avoid any further bloodshed for all those that they love and care about would be to simply end it then and there, before the datachip makes them both insane and incapable of undertsanding their doom. Johnny tells V it's not what he would have done, but understands V's decision. As the scene shifts over to the view of Night City, V pulls the trigger.

Secret ending
There is a secret variation of The Sun ending in which V and Silverhand storm Arasaka Tower all by themselves. To get this ending, you need to choose a specific dialogue at the end of the Chippin' In quest. During the conversation with Johnny in the oilfields choose the following (the rest doesn't matter):


 * "Nah, fucked that up too."
 * "What do you want from me?"
 * "Ok. But as second chances go, this is your last."

After choosing that last dialogue, Johnny's affinity will go up to 40%, and the secret ending will be unlocked. Note: Only this dialogue will work. Choosing the other ones or having a higher affinity by doing the side quests won't change the outcome. As long as you get that 40% during that specific dialogue, you can do any quest you want, even if you choose to go directly to Hanako after finishing Chippin' In.

Whenever you decide, proceed with Nocturne Op55N1. On the rooftop with Misty, after the small talk with Johnny, you'll be given the option of asking Hanako (or Rogue and Panam if you also finished their quests) for help. Don't proceed with any of the possible choices and wait patiently without doing anything. After roughly 5 minutes, Johnny will take V's silence into consideration and offer one more option. This will trigger the quest (Don't Fear) The Reaper in which V and Johnny take part in a "suicide run" by walking through the front door of Arasaka Tower and taking on the enemy alone.

If V dies at any point, the credits roll and the game is over, and all characters will react as if V had committed suicide.

If V is successful in uploading Alt and connecting to Mikoshi, this will lead to The Sun or Temperance endings, depending on what V chooses to do with their body. This is also the only way Rogue will appear in Path of Glory.

Names
Other names for the endings include:
 * The Devil (Where Is My Mind) - Hanako's path, Arasaka's path
 * The Star (All Along the Watchtower) - Panam's path, Aldecaldos' path
 * The Sun (Path of Glory) - Rogue's path, Merc's path
 * Temperance (New Dawn Fades) - Johnny's path

Variations
The Arasaka ending ("The Devil") will be different if Takemura does not survive Search and Destroy, there will no be support from Arasaka troops and Oda will not show up (if he was spared during Play it Safe). In the end Anders Hellman will appear to offer V a choice instead of Takemura, V then chooses to become an engram or rejects Arasaka's offer and goes back to Earth to die. The Devil achievement will not unlock if Takemura is not alive.

The Sun ending where V becomes a legend of the Afterlife changes if the secret ending was chosen ((Don't Fear) the Reaper). In this ending V still becomes the owner of the Afterlife bar, however Rogue is still alive and greets V as they take on a new gig from Mr. Blue Eyes.

V's romantic interest will appear depending on who you choose to call when given the option on Misty's rooftop. Regardless of your choices, Panam and Judy will always leave Night City, and River and Kerry will always stay in Night City. You can continue your relationship with Panam or Judy by choosing the Aldecaldos ending ("The Star"), or continue your relationship with River or Kerry by choosing the Path of Glory ending ("The Sun") or by going back to Earth in the Arasaka ending ("The Devil").

Rewards
After completing the endings you may receive a few items as a reward, which will be brought to your inventory in the last save before Nocturne Op55N1. Additionally, during the final quests you might be able to acquire some items given by other characters or found somewhere else. Some won't be brought to your inventory but a few will. The Legendary Gorilla Arms are not equipped immediately and must be installed for free from any ripperdoc, and they're unlocked in all the endings. V will also retain all Tarot Cards and some of the data shards found during the ending missions.

Epilogue variations
During the credits of Cyberpunk 2077, V will receive several voice mails from various characters they've encountered throughout the game. They will be different depending on the choices you make in the endings, and throughout the game.

Viktor, Judy, and Misty will always leave a message, no matter your choices. Panam will nearly always leave a message, with one exception, if you romance either Judy, Kerry, or River and then chose The Star ending.

Deaths, reputation, and the necklace
Depending on the ending, different story characters will meet their demise, V's final reputation will change, and the necklace with the bullet that Misty gave V will have different fates.
