Cyberpunk 2077remains extremely expansive, and within Night City and Dogtown, V can easily get caught up in the whirlwind of the wild characters within, and involve themselves in the lives of these wacky characters and their stories.Cyberpunk 2077doesn’t just have quests and side jobs that are shown to them, there are some secret quests inCyberpunk 2077just waiting to be discovered.
With so muchto do in Night City, it’s no surprise that there are some secret quests that even the most veteran of players might not know about. To continue finding things to do in Night City, look to these awesome hidden side quests inCyberpunk 2077to see if you’ve completed them all.
Updated on June 09, 2025, by Jake Fillery:Cyberpunk 2077 is filled with amazing side quests, but some are right under V and Johnny’s noses. Throughout Cyberpunk 2077’s base game, Update 2.3, and Phantom Liberty, players will certainly miss something if they aren’t familiar with every nook and cranny of Night City. Listed below, players will find some great side quests that are not marked on the map, and bring about plenty of surprises that continue forward with a quest chain of their own.
20They Won’t Go When I Go
Talk to a Con As They Prepare For Crucifixion on a Braindance
This is certainly a side job that players will not want to miss, but it will require them to be hesitant on the trigger. By starting the Sinnerman gig from Wakako Okada, V will be tasked with killing Joshua Stephenson, a convict who is currently being transferred by a private detail, and a murderer who Wakako’s client wants to make pay. However, things go south fast when the client is killed, and the man V was sent to kill wishes to speak with V.
If V restrains from killing Stephenson, and even agrees to get in the vehicle that houses him, players will learn of his self-righteous task to be absolved of his sins through crucifixion. The quest chain that follows from Sinnerman, to There Is A Light That Never Goes Out, to They Won’t Go When I Go is philosophically profound, and while there is no action to be had here, it’s one of the best side jobs that players can miss if they’re too trigger-happy.
19I’m in Love with My Car
Acquire a Free Car from an Abandoned Warehouse
Sure, V might not be the right age to be a pro-racer, nor do they have the time and the ability, but that doesn’t mean they cannot indulge in some fun. This secret quest is short and sweet, but it will reward players witha pretty cool-looking vehicle, the Quadra Type-66 “Hoon”, a secret car that will be waiting for them in a warehouse.
The vehicle itself has great top speed and acceleration, and its design even comes fitted with two machine guns. It’s always nice to find a secret in Night City, especially one that awards players with a vehicle for their troubles.
18Love Rollercoaster
Fix a Broken Rollercoaster to Make Memories with Johnny
While there is no reward for this quest in a physical sense, players will be rewarded in fun and good times with their best pal Johnny Silverhand. The quest has players fix up an old rollercoaster on Eden Beach, where V and Johnny can buckle in for the ride of their life that doesn’t involve guns and corpos.
It might be a minor side job, but it’s still secretive and a lot of fun for players who want to spend quality time with Johnny outside his nihilistic ways and the murder that comes with it, permitting a chance to just have a fun ride without the drama.
17I’ll Fly Away
Give Scorpion the Funeral He Would Have Wanted
I’ll Fly Away is another minor side job, but it’s one that is very easy to miss if players continue through Panam’s quest chain without interacting with Mitch Anderson, as this quest will not be available if players help the Aldecaldos move camp across the Badlands, and for the sake of the Aldecaldos, this sweet quest is one to experience.
The quest itself involves V and Mitch giving his pal Scorpion the funeral he would have wanted, and players even receive a new weapon and some loot for helping. It’s always nice to help a friend, especially when V themselves are grieving the loss of their own best friend with Jackie now gone.
16Happy Together
Understand Barry’s Pain and Prevent His Suicide
Happy Together will be one of the first side jobs that players will uncover in Night City as it will activate immediately in Act 2 after players have met Johnny Silverhand. The quest itself involves two worried cops as they attempt to check in on V’s neighbor, Barry Lewis, a former NCPD cop who hasn’t been seen in days and grieves alone at the loss of his friend.
If V decides to talk to Barry and just leave it there, then Barry will end up dead in a few days. However, V can travel to the Columbarium in North Oak and find the grave of Barry’s friend Andrew – a turtle. V can take this knowledge to the cops outside of Barry’s apartment and save his life by allowing people to show that they understand his grief.
15Machine Gun
Find Regina Jones’ Rhianna-Loving Smart Pistol
Venturing to Vista del Rey in Heywood, players will find a corpse with a rather special weapon: Skippy. Skippy is a beloved gun for a few reasons. Not only does it have a pretty good set of Iconic modifiers and uses a Smart Link to aim for the head, but it also speaks to V with a sassy and loyal charm. Yet, that charm runs out after 8 in-game days, when Skippy asks to be returned to his owner: Regina Jones.
Players can return Skippy to Regina, or decide to keep the gun for themselves. Regardless of their choice, it’s worth noting howfun and secretSkippy is, for he has two firing modes: Puppy-Loving Pacifist and Stone Cold Killer. If players choose the former, then after 100 kills he will permanently switch to the latter, and vice versa.
14The Highwayman
Within Rancho Coronado East, players can find a garage with a decal of a skeletal horse just behind the Gun-O-Rama shop. Doing so will proceed with The Highwayman, a hidden quest inCyberpunk 2077that will have V and Johnny investigate the fate of the two lovers photographed within the garage, James and Josie. When finding James in Japantown, an investigation truly begins.
While The Highwayman might not have the greatest ending for two lovers, it’s still one worth completing to find out how cruel Night City can be, and to obtain a stolen Tyger Claw motorcycle: the ARCH Nazare “Itsumade” that will provide players with one of thebest motorcycles inCyberpunk 2077.
13Murk Man Returns Again Once More Forever
Obtain Night City’s Very Own Batmobile
Once players have aided in Panam Palmer’s quests with Ghost Town, players can actually head back into the same tunnel where V and Panam fought and killed the Wraiths and Raffen Shiv. Within these tunnels, there’sa dark secret foundwithin one of the abandoned shipping containers, and inside is a Rayfield Caliburn “Murkmobile”, indicating that a vigilante uses these tunnels to move around – perhaps much like a famed DC Comics hero with a thing for bats?
Sadly, there is no Murk Man to stop V here, and only a data shard will prove that a vigilante roams Night City and the Badlands. V can take the Murkmobile for their own garage, but as far as this quest goes, there isn’t much action other than the thrills of high speeds with a new ride from the Badlands.
12Dressed to Kill
A Photoshoot Gone Wrong Provides V With a New Ride
For the Vs out there who like to explore the Badlands, feel free to check out the desolate Desert Film Set location at Jeff’s Dirt Track, which has quite a few corpses scattered throughout. While V might spot a Trauma Team vehicle leaving the area, all the evidence around and the data shards suggest a photoshoot that didn’t exactly go as planned thanks to the Wraiths.
While this is a quest that tells a visual story rather than having V get into the combat themselves, it’s still interesting to see the life of Night City go on, and even more interesting to claim yet another free vehicle for V’s collection with the abandoned Thorton Colby CX410 “Gran Butte”.
111R-ONC-LAD
A Scavenger Hunt in the Petrochem Stadium to
Within the Petrochem, players canuncover the flickering and sparking body of a robot, waiting for help. Interacting with the robot reveals itself as 1R-ONC-LAD, and now V has to explore the Peotrchem Stadium in search of computers and scavenger drops to rebuild 1R-ONC-LAD’s database so that it may once again be repaired.
1R-ONC-LAD is like theCyberpunk 2077Pinocchio, but is providing a robot with a sense of morality a good idea? Players can either wipe 1R-ONC-LAD’s memory, leave the bot alone to complete its revenge, or reprogram it so that it becomes a talented guitarist – the third option provides V with Eurodollars and a Skill Shard a few days later if V returns to 1R-ONC-LAD’s now abandoned location.
