As you step into Night City as V in Cyberpunk 2077, you’ll find a gritty, criminal playground for you to explore and immerse yourself in. V has a job to do, though, and that means you’ll need to level up your character, invest Perk Points, and make your mercenary a force to be reckoned with. In this guide, we’ll talk you through how to level up fast in Cyberpunk 2077.
How to Level Up Fast in Cyberpunk 2077
It’s important to stress that this guide pertains to increase V’s character level, and not her Street Cred level. If you’re looking for tips on how to increase your Street Cred fast, head over to our separate guide on the subject here.
Complete Main Missions
The main way you’ll earn experience to level up V’s character level is to complete the main story missions. These reward you huge amounts of XP, and you’ll find you level up after completing one of these missions, particularly during the early stages of the game.
Take on Fixer Gigs & Other Side Jobs
When you’re exploring Night City, you’ll be contacted by Fixers who will give you Gigs to complete. These are essentially side quests you can complete for these Fixers within their district of Night City.
Side jobs can also be found by talking to NPCs around the world, or when someone contacts you via V’s phone. Take these on to earn additional XP to help you level up faster.
Complete NCPD Tasks – How to Level Up Fast in Cyberpunk 2077
NCPD tasks come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and are marked on your map with pale blue icons.
By completing any of these NCPD tasks, you’ll earn some XP alongside a boost to your Street Cred. They tend to be far shorter in length than Gigs or main story quests, too, so are well worth diverting your attention to when you spot one nearby.
Increase Game Difficulty to Level Up Faster
Finally, this is a bit of a desperate last measure, but if you feel you’re up for a tougher challenge, you can always increase the game difficulty in Cyberpunk 2077.
Doing so earns you more XP for just about everything you do, which in turn allows you to level V up even faster. That being said, the harder difficulty will make enemies far tougher to take down, so there’s a bit of a risk/reward element to this.
All of this will help you reach the max level cap of level 50 in Cyberpunk 2077 much faster than you would playing naturally.
That’s everything you need to know on how to level up fast in Cyberpunk 2077. For more tips, tricks, and guides, head on over to our guide wiki, or check out more of our coverage on the game below.
