How to Upgrade Weapons in Cyberpunk 2077

Upgrading your weapons in Cyberpunk 2077 is essential for increasing their effectiveness in combat. In version 2.1, the weapon upgrade system is straightforward and accessible through your inventory. This guide will walk you through the exact steps needed to upgrade your weapons and understand the components required.

Accessing the Crafting Menu

To begin upgrading your weapons, open your inventory and look toward the right-hand side of the screen. You’ll see a Crafting option available. Click on it to access the crafting interface.

Finding the Upgrades Tab

Once you’re in the crafting menu, locate the Upgrades tab at the top of your screen. Click on this tab to view all available weapon upgrades.

Understanding Component Requirements

When you select a weapon to upgrade, the system will display whether the upgrade is available or blocked. If you see a blocked status, it means you have insufficient components to complete the upgrade. The interface will show you exactly what you need—for example, you might need 40 Tier 4 Item Components, or alternatively, lower-level components like Tier 3 items to complete the upgrade.

Completing Your Weapon Upgrade

Once you’ve gathered the required components, the blocked button will change to an Upgrade button. Click it to proceed. The system will display a comparison showing your weapon’s current stats and the improved stats you’ll receive after the upgrade. Confirm the upgrade to enhance your weapon’s performance.

Summary

Upgrading weapons in Cyberpunk 2077 v2.1 is simple: open your inventory, select Crafting, navigate to the Upgrades tab, and choose your weapon. Ensure you have the necessary Item Components (Tier 3, Tier 4, or higher) before upgrading. Once you have the required materials, click the Upgrade button and confirm the enhancement to boost your weapon’s effectiveness in the field.
