How to start Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty

After the expansion is released Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty Many players have a question about how to start passing it. There are several ways to do this and you can choose any of them. Below we will look at all the options for starting Phantom Freedom and indicate which method will be the most optimal for you.

How to start Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Freedom

So, there are three main ways to start the story DLC for Cyberpunk 2077. The developers have provided several options so that “old players,” for example, do not have to go through the entire game from the beginning, and newcomers, if desired, can immediately begin researching the content that interests them.

First method: using an old save

The easiest way for veterans who have already completed the game and do not want to redo all the story missions. They simply need to load a save after completing the second act, which usually ends by completing a quest "Human factor" and began the task “For Whom the Bell Tolls.”

Almost immediately after loading the game, a mysterious stranger will contact you, who will tell you about Dog City and invite you to meet - this will lead to the start of the “Unknown Land” mission. Go to the point indicated on the map, and then find Jay. To do this, go to the location shown in the screenshots below.

Someone will try to hack you, and then Jay will appear. Talk to her and she will direct you straight to Dog Town. To do this, you will have to go through a guarded parking lot - you can do it secretly or force your way through. Just follow the girl's instructions, and soon you will find yourself in a new area where you will see the plane with the president crashing.

Method two: start a new game

If you have never completed Cyberpunk 2077, then we strongly recommend that you choose this option, otherwise you simply will not understand what exactly is happening in this future world. It’s also worth choosing for “oldies” who want to try out the innovations introduced into the game with patch 2.0.

So, to do this, you just need to click on the “New Game” button in the main menu, and then click on the inscription “Start over”. Next, you will need to completely go through the entire first and second acts of the game. They usually end with a chain of Voodoo quests:

1. Lost heaven
2. Pattern recognition
3. Human factor

However, in your case, the sequence of tasks may vary slightly. If you focus on completing only the story quests, you will be able to get to the third chapter in about 10-12 hours. After this, as in the previous method, wait for a call from Jay and the start of the “Unknown Land” mission.

Third way: start with expansion events

If you don’t have any saves left from your previous playthrough, but you don’t want to re-do all the previous story missions and immediately get into the third act, then when you select “New Game” you can click on the inscription “Start with the events of Phantom Freedom”. Then customize your character, and after loading you will find yourself in the bookstore, where Jay will contact you and the quest “Unknown Land” will begin.

Your hero will be level 15, and have $20,000 in his pocket. You can “rebuild” your character by choosing the necessary perks and skills, as well as equipping him with all the necessary equipment. This should be enough to start the expansion without any problems.

These are all the ways to start the Phantom Liberty add-on for Cyberpunk 2077. We hope that this guide will help you choose the most optimal option for you.
