Tired of being homeless in Night City? Learn how to make money in Cyberpunk 2077.
While you'll find plenty of weapons and items in Cyberpunk 2077 to help you out, having a lot of cash in your wallet will prove invaluable, especially as you progress through the game and need to buy new cars and other goodies. In this guide, we will break down all the best ways to make money that should help you pack your wallet well.
How to make money - Cyberpunk 2077
There are several ways to earn money in Cyberpunk 2077, although many of them can be easily missed if you don't think about it. While there are a lot of side missions to complete, there are also some really useful skills and things to look out for that can help you line your pockets even more between missions.
Collect and sell
First, you'll want to unlock the perk pack mule on the Athletics tab of the Body attribute. This will allow you to carry more items in your inventory, which will come in handy in the next part of our plan.
If you want to earn a decent amount of money without being distracted, then finding items and Eurodollars is a really convenient way to earn money. There are many useless items you can find around the world, including weapons, junk, and even caches. Make sure you scan every room you pass through and pick up any item you can find. You can then head to one of the many distribution points located throughout the city and sell items to increase your profits. This is not the most profitable activity, but it will put extra money in your pocket without making you work too hard.
While you can sell junk, those looking to get into item crafting will want to unlock the perk Journeyman, which automatically breaks trash into crafting materials. The cost of pumped weapons can reach 1000 Eurodollars. You can also purchase the Crazy Science ability, which will increase the cost of items you craft. But it opens only at the 20th level of the parameter "Creation”, so it will be available towards the end of the game. Please note that if you are going to sell weapons, in no case do not disassemble them.
Hack access points
All in all, hacking is a really interesting system in Cyberpunk 2077 and you can also use it to earn some extra money. In the Intelligence attribute, make sure you select the Extended Network Interface perk in the Quick Hack category. This will highlight all nearby hotspots that you can hack. If you have already invested points in the Intelligence attribute, then you will be able to hack these hotspots for a chance to extract Eurodollars and crafting components.
You can expand this skill even more with the perk Improved data mining, which increases the amount of money you can receive from a hotspot by 50 percent for the first level and then 100 percent for the second level. This is a great way to top up your wallet with extra money that players will want to use to the fullest as they progress in the game.
You can also find and use special Quick Hacks that will allow you to easily steal money. Try to follow them as you explore the world.
Complete additional tasks
These include mercenary contracts, side quests that are not marked on the map, and much more. The reward depends on the danger of the task. Pay special attention to tasks that are marked in gold. They are separate adventures, with new locations and a little history. As a reward for completing them, you will receive especially rare weapons that can be sold at a profit.
Complete side quests called "Assault in Progress".
While completing these tasks, you will be able to find not only various valuables, but also unique cars.
Take on the mission "Epistrophy" (Epistrophy).
It will open in the second act, after completing the quest "Human Nature" (Human Nature). You will be asked to find the missing cars. For each discovered car you will receive money. Finding them is not difficult - they are often located next to the story missions.
