Cyberpunk 2077’s 2.0 replace is approaching September 21, and it utterly overhauls the sport’s talent timber to offer you a extra outlined playstyle. It guidelines. However for those who’re a fan of the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners anime (which is superb), you’ll discover the brand new talent timber embrace perks based mostly on characters from the anime, with icons that function their faces, and even one which’s straight-up named after the present. So if you wish to know what these are and the place to search for them on the talent tree, learn on.
Lucy: Finisher: Reside Wire
A nod to Lucy, the netrunner who makes use of a Monowire in fight, may be discovered within the Finisher: Reside Wire perk on the Intelligence talent tree. This is likely one of the new finishers, which helps you to take out an enemy with a trendy melee assault, and because the identify and icon suggests, includes utilizing a Mono Wire to complete an enemy off. You’ll discover it on the perk monitor for quickhack queuing on the left-hand facet. It positively feels in-line with Lucy’s character, so for those who’re trying to emulate her hacking experience and stylish wire use, begin dumping factors into your Intelligence tree.
Rebecca: Die! Die! Die!
As a lot as I really like fan-favorite Rebecca, Edgerunners’ foul-mouthed, unpredictable, gun-toting merc, the perk that makes use of her likeness isn’t fairly as thrilling because the others. Die! Die! Die! is discovered on the Physique talent tree, and lowers recoil for Shotguns, LMGs, and HMGs once you’re low on Stamina and will increase your hearth price as your Stamina decreases. It would positively aid you in a pinch, but it surely isn’t actually providing you with a brand new instrument like the opposite Edgerunners perks do.
David: Edgerunner
Lastly, David’s picture is used for the Technical Skill talent tree for a high-level perk named after the anime. Edgerunner’s utility is two-fold. At a base stage, it means that you can exceed your Cyberware Capability, however with the disadvantage of shedding 0.5% of V’s well being for each level you go over. This allows you to set up extra Cyberware, granting you extra buffs and skills relying on what add-ons you put in. However on high of that, relying on what number of factors you go over your capability, you’ve got an opportunity to enter a Fury state, which ups your injury by 10 p.c and offers you a 30 p.c larger vital hit likelihood for a 50 p.c vital injury enhance.
The entire thing seems like an echo of David’s arc in Edgerunners, which centered round his overuse of Cyberware and what it value him. So for those who, too, would love a style of that, it’s ready for you on the high of the Technical Skill tree.
All of this comes alongside the Phantom Liberty growth launching on September 26. For extra on that, be looking out for Kotaku’s full evaluation on September 20, 11 a.m. Japanese Time.
