Cyberpunk 2077 is a highly popular action-role playing game by CD Projekt Red. Although initially met with criticism for bugs and performance issues, it has since seen widespread acclaim. The overall gameplay has much improved since its release, especially with the latest 2.0 update. Nevertheless, there are still ways ways in which the overall experience can be improved yet further. Thankfully, this has been addressed by fans through numerous mods. From performance improvements, to quality of life mods, there are a huge variety to choose from. In this article, I will be listing below the top 10 ones currently available in Cyberpunk 2077.
Top 10 Cyberpunk 2077 Mods
10. Level Scaling and Balance Mod
This highly useful mod allows for a more balanced experience. This is because it lets you add NPC level scaling, in addition to setting damage multipliers. With this installed, you will have a greater ability to tailor the difficulty to your liking. It will also help prevent any situations in which you may feel too overleveled.

8. Better Minimap Mod
The original Cyberpunk 2077 minimap can be a bit difficult to read. Thankfully, this mod largely improves the issues that some have had with it. For starters, the mod allows you to zoom out to a much greater level. It also allows you to optionally make the minimap transparent and to turn off its border. Like this, the minimap is much less obtrusive and also much more useful during gameplay.

7. Silent Silencers and Throwing Knives Mod
In the base game, using a silenced weapon will automatically trigger combat. This mod fixes this issue, allowing you to stay in stealth for much longer when using silencers and throwing knives. If you prefer stealth to all out combat, that is mod is especially useful. It allows you to remain undetected much more easily.

6. Let There Be Flight Mod
Cyberpunk 2077 is set in a futuristic city, and although you can see flying cars in the game, it isn’t usually possible to fly yourself. That is unless you download this mod, or others like it. If you have always wanted to fly in Cyberpunk 2077, then this is for you. With this mod installed, travelling is much quicker and convenient.

5. Always First Equip
With this mod installed, your character will repeat the first-equip animation every time you go to use your weapon. This is purely an aesthetic mod. However, many players, myself included, find the equip animations to be very cool. Therefore, it is great to be able to see them multiple times thanks to this mod.

4. Better Vehicle Handling
Some vehicles in Cyberpunk 2077 can be quite bad at handling. As a result, it is sometimes hard to control them in the game. With this mod, bad handling is no longer an issue. It vastly improves the handling of cars and bikes, making it much easier to use them.

3. Immersive First Person Mod
Cyberpunk 2077 allows you to customise your character to a great degree. However, you seldom get to see that character in gameplay because it is a first-person title. This mod fixes that by making your character’s torso much more visible. With this installed, you will be able to more easily admire any new outfits you have equipped!
