After multiple updates and the Phantom Liberty expansion, Cyberpunk 2077 hides more secrets than ever before. Night City is no longer just a playground of neon lights and side jobs — it’s a living organism with rooms behind walls, questlines under bridges, and weapons waiting in places no fixers will ever mark for you.
Here are the most rewarding hidden areas, unlisted gigs, and legendary loot that even experienced mercs miss — all fully accessible in patch 2.0 and beyond.

Hidden Apartment #3 – “The Corpo Suite”
After you purchase the standard four apartments available in the game, there’s a fifth, unlisted apartment you can still access — the so-called Corpo Suite. It’s a developer-crafted room hidden in the heart of Corpo Plaza.
How to Find It:
-
Go to Corpo Plaza, enter the Arasaka Tower lobby via the northern escalators.
-
Head to the right-side maintenance hallway behind the “No Entry” hologram.
-
Jack into the keypad using Technical Ability 15 or higher.
-
Ride the private elevator to level 81 — there’s no map marker for it.
Inside You’ll Find:
-
A minimalist penthouse with panoramic views of Night City’s skyline.
-
The Prototype Militech Smart Rifle (unique version of the M251 Ajax).
-
A personal shard written by a dev team member referencing “The Fifth Apartment” — an intentional Easter egg.
This apartment doesn’t appear in the game’s database, but it functions fully: you can sleep, shower, and change outfits. It’s a secret trophy location for collectors.
The “Phantom Vendor” of Dogtown
Deep inside Dogtown’s old stadium, there’s a black-market vendor who appears only at night after certain conditions are met. This NPC sells items unavailable anywhere else in the game.
How to Trigger It:
-
Complete the Phantom Liberty main questline “Firestarter.”
-
Return to the Dogtown Stadium after midnight.
-
Enter through the northwest cargo tunnel.
-
You’ll find a lit kiosk with a single netrunner wearing an optic hood.
What They Sell:
-
The Prototype Neural Adapter (increases RAM regen speed +25%).
-
Blackwall Contaminant Weapon Mods, rumored to be experimental AI tech.
-
The Apogee Netdeck Mk. 6, stronger than the purchasable Mk. 5 variant.
If you kill or threaten the vendor, they disappear permanently — a one-time opportunity for top-tier builds.
Secret Gig – “Static Echoes”
This hidden gig doesn’t appear on the fixer map. It starts automatically when you explore an abandoned NCPD communications tower east of Watson.
How to Start It:
-
Travel to the Watson Badlands edge, north of the Sunset Motel.
-
Enter the old relay tower with blue warning lights.
-
Connect to the terminal to trigger a custom message: “If you hear the static, follow it.”
-
A ghost signal leads you to three nearby transmitters that must be deactivated in order.
Completing all three unlocks an unmarked stash containing:
-
Iconic Pistol “Whisper” – silenced, deals bonus headshot damage after crouch kills.
-
A hidden message chain hinting that the job was coded by Netrunner Rache Bartmoss’s followers.
No fixer rewards you for this gig, making it one of the purest hidden quests in the game.
Legendary Cyberware Hidden in Pacifica
Buried beneath the ruins of Pacifica lies an abandoned ripperdoc clinic stocked with legendary cyberware parts.
Location:
-
Pacifica → West Wind Estate underground service tunnels.
-
Enter through the collapsed metro tunnel near the coastline.
What You’ll Find:
-
Gorilla Arms (Legendary) – far earlier than normal vendor unlocks.
-
Reflex Tuner Mk. 3, hidden in a medical locker.
-
A shard explaining how the clinic was raided by Tyger Claws smuggling Blackwall tech.
Loot here respawns once per in-game week, making it a reliable farming spot for high-end components.
Hidden Iconic Weapon – “Serpent’s Bite”
The Serpent’s Bite is a katana designed around toxic damage, but it’s never mentioned by any fixer or quest.
How to Obtain It:
-
Visit the Arasaka Industrial Complex in Arroyo.
-
Enter the drainage tunnels beneath the complex via the southern vent.
-
Defeat a group of Maelstrom gangers guarding a cargo crate.
-
Inside the crate, loot the Serpent’s Bite Katana.
The weapon scales with your level and has a unique effect: each critical hit applies cumulative poison that can down even cyber-psychos in seconds. Perfect for stealth builds.
Hidden Dialogue with Johnny Silverhand
One of the most overlooked narrative secrets appears if you max out Johnny’s affinity (70% or higher) before finishing Phantom Liberty.
How to Unlock It:
-
After the ending, visit V’s original apartment in Little China.
-
Sit at the bar and interact with the whiskey bottle on the counter.
-
Johnny will appear for a short monologue about “the choice you didn’t take.”
The conversation changes depending on your ending path and attributes, giving personalized closure that most players never experience.
Why These Secrets Elevate Cyberpunk 2077
Each hidden element reflects CD Projekt’s design philosophy — reward curiosity, not just quest markers. The secret apartment gives immersion and prestige; the Dogtown vendor deepens lore; hidden gigs and weapons reinforce the sense that Night City is always watching, even when you’re off the grid.
Together, they form a second layer of the game that transforms exploration from sightseeing into true discovery. In a city obsessed with data, these are the things no database tracks.
