Summary
Cyberpunk 2077is a video game that needs no introduction. Through the years of hard work since its initial release,Cyberpunk 2077has proved to bean excellent video gamethat players couldn’t enjoy to this degree early on. Thankfully, painstakingly released update after update ironed out the bugs and glitches, bringing forth a great experience, and further mysteries to uncover within Night City.
In all of Night City’s corporate claustrophobia, it’s the City Center that acts as one of the many urban sprawls players can explore, serving as a hub for the many reviled megacorps that are slowly sucking the soul out of this city to earn a profit.
6Arasaka Memorial
For The Victims Of The 2023 Bombing Of Arakasa Tower Caused By Johnny Silverhand
The fact that an area clearly inspired by the Holocaust Memorial was created by a corporation in Night City is proof enough of just how bad things are in this urban landscape. This memorial was constructed to honor the lives of everyone who lost their lives in Johnny Silverhand’s brazen attack on Arasaka Tower, with many people going so far as to label it the Night City Holocaust.
It’s a solemn area to explore that shows how the death of many lives is treated as another way to earn a quick buck for corporations like Arasaka.One of these memorials houses a secretthat players can access if they input the correct code, revealing the names of multiple people who worked on the game.
5Petrochem Tower
The Megacorp’s Regional Office In Night City
Petrochem is one of the many big corps running Night City, and it’s only fitting that one of their headquarters is situated on the Corpo Plaza ringroad. It’s situated right next to the Kang Tao building, with this building looking over the Night City populace much like how a person looks at an ant colony and its minuscule residents.
A rather odd error in the game stems from the fact that the Petrochem website mentions the wrong area where this building is situated. They say that the building is in Sequoia Street when it’s actually on the ringroad. It’s a small blooper that not many people notice, given how inconvenient it is to try and navigate the in-game browser. Nevertheless, it’s a fun little secret to know.
47th Hell
A Nightclub Owned By A Former Merc
After living as a solo for the longest time, Jack Mausser decided to finally hang up his boots and put his money to good use. He invested in a nightclub called 7th Hell that he runs in the Downtown area of City Center, using members of the Animals gang as protection. Players are tasked with breaking into the restricted area of this club during the Gig: An Inconvenient Killer, where players are tasked with taking out the man who runs this place.
Players are encouraged to not get into a firefight in the club, but most players won’t be able to resist given how enticing it is to have a shootout in such a cinematic location. The Gig itself is pretty by the numbers, with an optional interaction with Jack Mausser being the only highlight in what is otherwise a pretty cut-and-dry quest.
3Biotechnica Hotel
Also Known As The Republic Way Hotel
Another corporation that makes its presence known in an area full of megacorp buildings is Biotechnica. Their hotel is beautiful and fun to explore, although most players won’t have time to stop and smell the roses oncethey initiate the Gig: Guinea Pigs.
Players must enter the 19th floor, break into her suite, take out the guards standing in their way, and eliminate Joanne. They can either kill her on the spot or bring her to the rooftop, where players must take out four guards before an AV can safely land to take her unconscious body.
2V’s Corpo Plaza Apartment
One Of The Many New Homes Added To The Game
One part ofCyberpunk 2077that irritated most fans to no end was the fact that they couldn’t buy any apartments with all the credits they earned during their adventures.For V to live in a cramped apartmenteven after making a name for himself was hard to believe.
So, fans were glad to see that Update 1.5 added a wealth of apartments for V to purchase, including the most expensive one in Night City. It doesn’t boast the same level of luxury as the Glen, but this is to be expected given the high-profile area that this apartment is situated in.
1Arasaka Tower
Headquarters Belonging To The Most Dangerous Corpo In The World
Arasaka is labeled by many as the major antagonist of the game, kickstarting the events that caused Silverhand to be trapped in the Soulkiller problem before eventually becoming an engram in V’s mind that is slowly conquering his body. There are two assaults that players stage in Arasaka Tower, with the first one being shown as a flashback.
The second assault serves as the final mission ofCyberpunk 2077, with V storming the tower toreach Mikoshi and let Alt take over. It’s an incredible mission made even more cinematic if players unlock the secret route to the ending where they enter the front doors of this building and wreak havoc as they stage a one-man assault on one of the most powerful megacorps in Night City.
