I've completed a couple play throughs on PS5 and loved the game. Recently built my first PC and had to download this game straight away. The game was great before but mods really bring it to life! Which are your must have mods? A Few that I absolutely love:
-Nova City – Population
-React to horn (needed with all the extra cars from the first mod)
-Cyperpunk 2077 HD Reworked Project Ultra Quality
-LUT Switcher 2
-Arasaka Cyberarms
-Big Hologram Adds
-Braindance Protocol (simply to enable Judy romance for Male V)
I use so many more mods but for me these are the ones that have really brought the game to life. It's a dream to play. Intrested to hear what are you 5-10 must have mods?

Lifepath bonuses and gang traits. Been a must have for me for ages
I’m on my third playthrough, first time with mods – got a number of new clothes n’shit but my favorite one, by far, is “Ragdoll Physics Overhaul” ( [Nexus link](https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/3858?tab=description) ).
Like, this single mod made the game 10 times more enjoyable, I’m not even kidding here – vanilla Cyberpunk has **a lot** of problems with ragdoll physics and it’s always been bothering me to high heavens, this mod basically fixes **all of them**. Bodies drop naturally, the *wobbly limbs incidents* happen **way** less often.
Start a big fight with this mod installed and the aftermath of said fight looks like an aftermath of an actual fight, not like a drug-fueled orgy that went sideways, lol.
Highly, highly, **highly** recommend this one.
COD weapons pack. The pistols make every other weapon in the game obsolete.
Silenced throwing knives and silenced weapons. You can kill a group of enemies 10+ and never enter a combat state.
Exotics mods and exotics civilians and companion followers
Like I only have console, but like… I would absolutely install those and be content.
[All of OgMisoru’s Cache mods. can’t be without them.](https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/ogMisoru)
Dark Future survival mod. It has the usual eat-drink-sleep requirements, but it includes levels of quality for the consumables. Also has a system for addiction to different substances, which for my V means not having to sleep for days due to being hopped up on speed and cigs while taking the edge off with tequila. Seems like something that would be happening to someone desperately trying to evade certain death in NC.
Also any of the romance integration mods. Getting extra texts, the date night where they’ll just hang out in your apartment, even the hotscene integration (for the gooners). Makes your NPC romances feel like more than a one-and-done.
Finally, the auto drive mod that lets the Caliburn and the Delamain cab just AI drive from place to place. I don’t like using fast travel, because you don’t get to enjoy the city, but driving everywhere can be tedious. There is another mod that’s supposed to provide auto driving, and also has the ability to call AV’s and maybe buses, but that one drives like a maniac. The one that’s called just “auto drive” is very smooth, although it helps if you do the parking manually.
The one that removes the vignette when you crouch
I don’t care for gameplay or weapons mods.
But yes, I’m one of the weirdos with a shit ton of outfit mods for FemV and visit r/NightCityFashion and r/OnlyChooms
THE must-have mod for me is In-world navigation. I have a terrible sense of direction in video games and constantly looking up at the minimap is a drag. The mod puts arrows on the road in front of you so you can keep your eyes on the city.
Are mods only available with the PC version?
A moment of silence for all console players
Goon mode
Cyberarms, equipment ex & virtual atelier
Everything else usually fits into those categories since I really only use character customization & outfit mods
all the immersion stuff from deceptious, Dark Future, Lifepath bonuses and gang traits
Sandy + Cybderdeck. Because I’m different choom. And you can’t stop me
Imma save this thread for posterity
Edit: also can’t seem to be able to play without cyber ex these days. Hate having to select between one mod or another so why not have them ALL?
