Everything You Need To Know About Cyberpunk 2077’s Ending

Listed below is everything you need to know about the five different endings in Cyberpunk 2077.

How Many Endings Are There?

There are five endings in total. Four standard endings and one secret endings.

These endings result in the following epilogue possibilities:

Do Life Paths Have Special Endings?

No. Your Life Path may change your experiences along the way but not the overall ending.

Cyberpunk 2077 has multiple drastically different endings, all of which diverge from a single point and have different unlock requirements before that point in order to access them.

Here are all the endings we’ve found, including what you need to do to reach them and the major choices that occur during them.

How To Beat Cyberpunk 2077

First things first, every ending begins at the same “Point of No Return” mission called Nocturne Op55N1.

This has the player meet Hanako Arasaka at a restaurant called Embers, and you will be warned before starting this mission that there’s no coming back from it, so we’d recommend saving right beforehand.

Additionally, beating the game will create a special save file at this moment that you can then reload, which will also add a few simple bonus items to your inventory, allowing you to pick-up right before it and complete more side content.

All Ending Rewards

Choice: Call Your Romantic Partner or Not

After Misty leaves you to decide, Johnny suggests that you call anyone that wish to say goodbye to. Here, you’ll be given the opportunity to call your romantic partner – if you have one! See our Romance Guide for even more information.

Depending on your decision, it will have a minor consequence in your Epilogue. While not super impactful on the main ending, the choice will simply be a fun option to playout should you have built a relationship with a particular character.

• Calling Your Love Interest: Calling your love interest will allow you to say your final goodbye, as your not certain if you’ll see them again. Saying goodbye will also cause the character in question to make an appearance during the Epilogue – this may depend on your ending though!

• Goodbyes Aren’t My Style: Should you choose not to call your love interest or simply don’t have one, you’ll be on your own during the epilogue.

Choice: Who to Team Up With to Raid Arasaka Tower

From here, you go to the roof of Misty’s Esoterica and can choose from five possible routes, all of which are dependent on the side jobs that you have completed.

How Do I Fill Cyberpunk 2077’s Percentages?

This is a tricky one. Certain quests, mainly main jobs, will increase the three percentages in the menu, but don’t expect to have them maxed out before beating the game.

For example, the left-most bar will only reach 100% in the epilogue of one of the endings listed above, not before, while the right-most bar will never be able to reach 100%. Therefore, don’t take these as progress indicators, because that’s really not what they are.

This page is part of IGN’s Cyberpunk 2077 Wiki guide and details everything you need to know about unlocking every possible ending. This will include every necessary dialogue option, main job, and major side jobs needed to achieve all five different endings in Cyberpunk 2077.
