This article will contain top-level spoilers for all of Cyberpunk 2077’s various endings, including the new ending that can be unlocked via the Phantom Liberty DLC. You have been warned.
In Night City, there are no happy endings. Early on, this is posited as an absolute truth in this universe. Everything has a cost – and seldom is that cost cheap. In the menus of Cyberpunk 2077, one of three deliberately mysterious ‘completion percentages’ ticks up towards protagonist V’s goal of becoming a legend. But that goal is, in many ways, incompatible with life. From the earliest moments of this narrative, the choice is outlined plainly: for joy, there must be death.
Fixer Dexter DeShawn even says this out loud during the build-up to the heist that serves as the climax of Cyberpunk’s excellent, protracted prologue. “Would you rather live in peace as Miss Nobody – die ripe, old, and smellin’ slightly of urine? Or go down for all times in a blaze of glory, smellin’ near like posies, ’thout seein’ your thirtieth?”
