The Beast in Me: Badlands is a Side Job in Cyberpunk 2077.
Walkthrough[]
Two days after participating in the City Center race, V is contacted again by Claire Russell, for the second race coordinates. Claire instructs V to come to Brookland street in Laguna Bend, Badlands, close to the Coronado Dam.
After arriving at the Dam, V calls Claire to tell her that they are ready for the race, and they sit down on a nearby bench to wait for Claire to arrive.
Some time later, all competitors have arrived, consisting of two Wraiths teams and three Aldecaldo teams, one of which consists of Jakub Antonowicz and Margot Wojciechowicz. V briefly chats with Claire, before getting in the car and starting the race.[Trivia 1] Mere moments before the race starts, V is taunted by Luigi, who mockingly wishes them good luck.
If Claire and V finish second or third:
- Claire and V have secured one of the finishes needed to qualify for the final race.
If Claire and V win the race:
- After winning the race, V receives a payout of 3860 eurodollars, and have secured one of the finishes needed to qualify for the final race.
Having finished the race, Claire and V chat a little bit more. She will talk about how her husband, Dean Russell, was an amazing driver. After talking, she offers V a ride back to her garage.
Journal Entry[]
- So, you're waiting for a date with Claire and her turbo-charged pet, Beast, away from all the city's hustle and bustle. I wonder how many bodies have been left to the[sic] bake in the Badlands sun after these races? Just do a me a favor and don't become one. Watch out for tumbleweeds, bumpy patches... armored Wraith trucks... Y'know, the usual.
