Check out these 5 mods for CD Projekt’s action RPG Cyberpunk 2077 which provides a fresh experience in the vibrant Night City.
CD Projekt’s action RPG Cyberpunk 2077 launched in 2020. Despite a hard opening due to various bugs and issues, CD Projekt undertook extensive reworks and optimizations, transforming the title into one of the finest open-world RPGs. The 2023 expansion of Phantom Liberty reignited gamers’ interest, prompting many to return to Cyberpunk 2077 in recent times.
If you’re looking for a fresh experience beyond the vanilla game, we have packed a list of the best mods for Cyberpunk 2077. While the title features several popular scripting framework mods like Cyber Engine Tweaks, this list focuses on mods that enhance the gameplay with unique features and innovative mechanisms.
1) JB – TPP MOD WIP Third Person
Starting the list with one of the most sought-after features of the community, the third-person perspective. While CD Projekt’s other flagship title, The Witcher series, features third-person gameplay, most players wanted to feel such an experience for Cyberpunk 2077.
Fortunately, Jelle Bakker’s JB – TPP MOD WIP Third Person mod fulfills their wish. With this mod, players can now enjoy Cyberpunk 2077 from a third-person perspective and experience the richness of Night City from a completely new perspective.
2) Metro System
Cyberpunk 2077’s Night City is a vibrant metropolis filled with environmental storytelling. Widely regarded as one of the best open-world designs in gaming history, every inch of Night City’s streets is packed with immersive detailing. keanuWheeze’s Metro System mod enhances this experience by introducing fully usable transit across various Metro Stations.
These allow players to travel from one area to another while experiencing the serene view of Night City. With over 19 different Metro Stations, players can wait for transit like real life to pick their ride. Moreover, switching between a first-person perspective (FPP) and a third-person perspective (TPP) while traveling inside the transit allows a unique way to appreciate the stunning beauty of the map.
3) Kiroshi Opticals – Crowd Scanner
While CD Projekt delivered a brilliant piece of work on the storytelling of various major characters and their backstories, there isn’t much depth for the NPCs of Night City. However, the Kiroshi Opticals – Crowd Scanner mod by Alien and BadAssGodFather takes a unique approach by generating backstories for the NPCs of the game.
These backstories are generated procedurally based on the appearance and gender of the NPC and are displayed in a new section on the scanner panel. However, this feature works only for crowd NPCs.
4) Drone Companions
If you have ever felt lonely in Night City, then check out the Drone Companions mod by Scissors. As the name suggests, this mod allows you to craft Companion Drones, Androids, and Mechs that accompany you on your journey and fight for you.
Additionally, you can use them to tag targets and direct them to attack specific enemies. These drones can be crafted with TechDeck, an Operating System like Cyberdeck, or Berserk. You can get the components to assemble these drones via vendors or by looting mechanical NPCs.
5) Time Dilation Overhaul
The Cyberpunk THING Team’s Time Dilation Overhaul mod completely reworks the Sandevistan Operating System and includes various new features related to the concept of time dilation. The mod adds a challenging and rewarding experience, making the combat more immersive.
It includes deflecting bullets with a Katana and activating the time-dilation in vehicles. It also changes the NPC’s behavior in time dilation and allows players to teleport. Additionally, it features some quality-of-life options while fixing minor bugs.
