11 Meredith Stout Sleeps With the Fishes
Find the Watery Grave of Militech Secrets
- Location: Jump into the water north west of Offshore Street in Watson, Northside
If players decided not to side with Meredith Stout during The Pickup, her position at Militech as a Senior Operations Manager will be replaced by Anthony Gilchrist, who proves that climbing the corporate ladder is quite literally, deadly. Meredith is never seen or heard from again, and the reason being is that her body is tied to a cement block in the ocean, keeping her grave watery and cold like her personality was.
Not only will players only be able to find this grave if they didn't side with Meredith, but they will have to go for a cold plunge in the water to see this familiar face from before V and Johnny were well acquainted.
10 The Columbarium's Memorials
Pay Your Respects to Strangers, Friends, and the Edgerunners
- Location: Columbaria, North Oak, Westbrook
Heading to the Columbarium, players can pay their respects by entering mournful sites. Each plaque here represents a loved one that has since been lost, and as players progress through Night City, collecting more memories through main missions and side jobs, they will see the Columbarium filled with more names and mementos to those lost. Not only is this a place for you to recall those that V knew, but it's a place to mourn for those that the player might miss, too.
In the Columbarium, players can locate the different graves of the Edgerunners crew, the famed gang that took the spotlight in Netflix's Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. With icons like Rebecca and David Martinez making their permanent residence here, it's nice for veterans to come here and see these hidden spots.
9 Roy Batty's Final Resting Place
Like Tears in Rain...
- Location: On the rooftop of the Advocet Hotel in Vista del Rey, Heywood
Blade Runner fans shouldn't be surprised that Cyberpunk 2077 features more than a few references to the Ridley Scott movie. In fact, one of the more obvious ones will take hardcore and devoted players to a rooftop in Vista del Rey to visit a deceased NPC, half-naked, on his knees, and holding a bird. As soon as players enter the rooftop, it will pour with rain and become nighttime. It's a blatant and loving easter egg for Roy Batty's character in Blade Runner, with his closing speech as he reaches his mortal end.
8 Vault 101
Discover the Fate of LARPers Recreating the Story of Fallout
- Location: East of the Border Checkpoint in Rattlesnake Creek, South Badlands.
Night City has many secrets, and the outskirts of the Badlands have even more. Venturing deep into the South Badlands, players might be able to discover Bunker 101, which is essentially a live-action-roleplay version of Vault 101 from Bethesda’s Fallout series. While it’s not nearly as impressive as VaultTec’s vaults, it’s still a fun and hidden area that many wouldn’t have found.
It’s obscure, out of the way, and hilarious, even if the fate of the two LARPers involved, isn’t. The two bodies that can be found add more to this hidden area, as they are discussing the LARP that they have, and the need to leave Vault 101 to find a hydroprocessor, which is basically a repeat of the original Fallout story where a Vault Dweller must leave the safety of their Vault for a water chip to save the other dwellers.
7 CD Projekt RED’s Store
Find the Founders of CD Projekt RED Selling References
- Location: Opposite the clothing shop in the EBM Petrochem Stadium, Dogtown
The EMB Petrochem Stadium isn’t the friendliest of places in Dogtown, but it is where players can find all sorts of black market goodies. From undiscovered Iconic guns to the co-founders of CD Projekt RED themselves, the Petrochem has many secrets and hidden areas that players might have easily missed before.
Outside a clothing store, held up in a derelict van, players can find two Polish men speaking to each other. These characters are actually Marcin Iwiński and Michał Kiciński, the two co-founders of CD Projekt Red who will sell references to their works, like The Snitcher, a parody of The Witcher. Sadly, these items are just junk in-game, but in reality, they are some of the finest works in the gaming market.
6 The Bloody Mannequin Lake
A Disturbing Mass Grave That Turns Out to Be an Abandoned Movie Set
- Location: North-Northeast of Desert Film Set Data Term, Rocky Ridge, North Badlands.
Again, the Badlands is a terrifying and dangerous place, desolate and bloody, and what better example of that than a literal lake polluted with blood and the body of mannequins? While the bodies are thankfully not real, but instead just a hundred mannequins, it’s still a disturbing sight in Cyberpunk 2077 that will have players wanting to leave the moment they step foot out of their ride to get here.
Cyberpunk 2077: 8 Biggest Changes Since 1.0
CD Projekt RED has gone above and beyond to ensure that Cyberpunk 2077 received the ultimate changes to make the game an incredible time for all.
While it might be a scary sight at first, further discovery will have players find a data shard that they can read, which details the abandoned set of the Hell Lake 3 movie that failed to find funding. So, the producers have just decided to leave this lake in a bloodied and mannequin-filled mess so wanderers like V can find it and be momentarily terrified.
5 The Children of the Ark Cult
A Circle of Corpses from a Suicide Cult
- Location: A Campsite East-Northeast of the Fuel Station in Jackson Plains, South Badlands.
A morbid sight (once again) can be found in the Badlands, where players will stumble upon what seems to be a cult. The fact that cults are still a thing in 2077, proves that humanity never really moves forward, and this suicide cult believes in the Technological Singularity that will help them go beyond the Blackwall to survive the wrathful gods of artificial intelligence.
The cults involved here are all dead, and they have decided to take their own lives to board the Ark of Salvation and be spared from the Rogue AIs of the Blackwall. The sight uncovered here is a reminder of the dangers of cults, and the last words of the cult leader are to beckon more followers to join them in death.
4 V’s Penthouse
Climb to V’s Secret Mansion Just Outside of Megabuilding H10, Little China, Watson
- Location: Opposite the clothing shop in the EBM Petrochem Stadium, Dogtown
V’s penthouse from one of the many ending paths in Cyberpunk 2077 has actually been right under players’ noses this entire time. The penthouse itself is in window’s view of V’s apartment at the Megabuilding H10 Atrium, and players can even visit this area before they claim it as their own during The Sun ending.
To do so, players are going to need the Air Dash perk from the Reflexes attribute, and the Fortified Ankles Legs Cyberware to reach new heights, where players are going to scale different buildings and skyscrapers to essentially glitch themselves to the top of V’s penthouse, where inside, they might not find anything, but it’s a fun secret that shows V’s dream of becoming a Night City Legend.
3 Adam Smasher’s Hideout
Find Where Adam Smasher Hangs Up His Guns and Chrome
- Location: Found on a shipping boat at the Ebunike Docks, Northside, Watson, after acquiring the Keycard from Adam Smasher in Nocturne Op55n1.
The Ebunike Docks is an important part of Cyberpunk 2077 due to V and Rogue’s infiltration of the Maelstrom-infested sight to find Grayson, a man with ties to Adam Smasher, and the man who holds Johnny’s Porsche and Malorian Arms gun. While there’s nothing players can do here right now, returning after defeating Adam Smasher will unlock the access code they need to enter Adam Smasher’s secret room on the boat.
Cyberpunk 2077: Most Gut-Wrenching Quotes
There are quite a few profound and depressing quotes in Cyberpunk 2077 that will catch the feelings of every player who hears them.
Inside, there’s a wall of guns to find, as well as the Ba Xing Chong Iconic Shotgun, and a readable shard that shows how Adam Smasher is devoted to the cyberwar e he has. It’s a scary sight, and players who are exploring here might be on edge out of concern for Adam Smasher’s return, but don’t worry, he’s long gone.
2 The Developer Room
The Dev Room That Showcases the Talent Behind Cyberpunk 2077
- Location: The back of Kabuki Market, Watson, by a sign: Sapped Synapses – Roasters, where a keypad code: 605185 will open a secret room.
Heading to the far end of Kabuki Market, players can find an abandoned building with shutters locking the contents within. Luckily, with the code 605185, players can open the shutters and head inside. While there’s no loot to be had, Johnny Silverhand acknowledges the secret, and V can sit down on the couch to chill out and watch the credits roll.
From the TV, images of the talented developers behind Cyberpunk 2077 will be shown, all while Johnny strums out some notes on his guitar. It’s a quiet moment in the bustle of Night City and a respectable secret for the developers behind this incredible game.
