Cyberpunk 2077: How to Change Weapons

Cyberpunk 2077 is an FPS as much as anything, so of course weapons are important. Quick access to weaponry can mean the best outcome in any hairy situation that may arise, so you want to be be prepared. This guide will help with teaching you how to change weapons in Cyberpunk 2077.

How to Change Weapons in Cyberpunk 2077

The easiest method to change weapons in Cyberpunk 2077 is to press Triangle (PS4), Y (Xbox), or LAlt (PC) to simply swap between your recently used weapons. However, holding that button/key will bring up a radial menu. From here you can select between three weapons, bringing out your fists, or holstering your gun. Weapons can be equipped from the inventory menu into the radial menu.

Having fists as their own and permanent option is handy (get it?), as you never know when a gun might be too much for a situation, or you just want to go in quietly.

Maybe you want to spec yourself out to be a bare-knuckle brawler, then you’re never too far away from your two best weapons: lefty and righty. But, let’s face it, guns are what make Night City go ’round.

Speaking of quietly, time stops when the radial menu is opened. On top of just being a convenient place to pull out pieces of your arsenal, each weapon has an info card, so you have plenty of time to pick just the right tool for the job. This is especially handy as weapons can be modded up, it’s a nice time to figure out exactly what you will switching to.
