Cyberpunk 2077’s Perks and Cyberware listed in new preview
Customise your character with Mantis Blades, Gorilla Hands and more
New details on Cyberpunk 2077’s in-game perks and Cyberware have appeared online.
The new details were published in a German preview (translated by Reddit, via Wccftech) and reveal some of character customisation options that will be available to players when the game releases in November.
Among other things, the writeup lists perks from the Engineering, Crafting and Athletic perk trees, as well as some of the Cyberware players can choose to install on their character.
Cyberware must be installed in a limited number of slots across the player character’s body (eyes, arms, skeletal system etc) and unlocks new abilities such as Mantis Blades or automatic slow-mo when health is low.
You can see the full list of perks and Cyberware revealed in the preview below, in its own words.
The Cyberpunk 2077 release date was recently delayed by two months to November 19, marking a second delay for the game this year after it slipped from its originally targeted April launch to September.
The company also said it intends to release the “proper, full-blown next-gen version” of Cyberpunk 2077 in 2021, which is very likely to support its own ray-tracing visual effects.
