All Cyberpunk 2077 endings
The base game has 5 main endings plus the secret one. Triggered by your dialogue choice in the final mission Nocturne OP55N1. Phantom Liberty adds a separate path — covered in another guide.
How endings unlock
In Mikoshi (the final mission), Johnny gives you several choices:
- Trust Hanako → Path of Glory ending (corpo Arasaka)
- Call Rogue → Path of Least Resistance (Johnny dominant)
- Call Panam → Path of Stars (Aldecaldos, ride into the sunset)
- Let Johnny take over → Path of Temperance (V dies, Johnny lives)
- Suicide option → Don't Fear the Reaper alt
The Sun (secret ending)
Unlocks if your Friendship with Johnny is high enough by the time you reach Nocturne OP55N1.
- Get Friendship to 70%+ by completing all of Johnny's mission chain (Tapeworm, Chippin' In, Blistered Lands, Like A Supreme).
- During Nocturne OP55N1, stay silent for 5 in-game minutes when Johnny offers options.
- A new dialogue branch opens: Let me think about it.
- Choose this → triggers the Don't Fear the Reaper suicide-mission ending: V solos Arasaka tower with Johnny.
Best ending? It depends.
- Most upbeat: Path of Stars (Panam).
- Most narratively interesting: Don't Fear the Reaper.
- Hardest: also Don't Fear the Reaper — solo Mikoshi tower at lvl 30.
If stuck: if the silent option doesn't appear, your Johnny Friendship is below 70. Reload an earlier save and complete more Johnny missions.
