Changing Cyberware Implants in Cyberpunk 2077

One of the very first missions you’ll take on in Cyberpunk 2077 tasks you with visiting the Ripperdoc. This is where you’ll be able to install cybernetic implants in V’s body and enhance their physical and hacking abilities. Ripperdoc upgrades don’t come cheap, but eventually you’ll get to a point where you can start to pick and choose the kinds of implants you want on V.

To do this, bring up your character menu by pressing the touchpad or the View button on Xbox One. Then, hover over the Character option and select Cyberware.
