Cyberpsycho Sightings are back in Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty 2.0, and they are still as dangerous to tackle.

The Cyberpsychos are a group of 17 killing machines scattered throughout Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty 2.0's Night City. You will first encounter them when you pick up the side job Psycho Killer from Regina Jones.

Each Cyberpsycho is different, and you may need varied techniques and tactics to eliminate them. However, there are several things you can do to easily defeat them.

Many of these killing machines are vulnerable to Shock damage, so utilize Tech Weapons as much as possible. Use the charged shots to finish your enemies at close range.

If you're into long-range playstyle (which is recommended), it is advisable to use sniper rifles. You can use Smart Weapons with bullets that automatically target the enemy. This way, you can hurt them from a safe distance. These weapons are also especially useful when dealing with enemies who like to hide behind objects and structures.

Finally, the best thing to do to beat Cyberpsychos is to make use of the different quickhack techniques. Even if you don't need to specialize in Netrunner Perks, you can still use various quickhacks effectively. Weapon Glitch and Overheat are some of the best ones to use in Cyberpsycho fights.

Moreover, there's a special hack called System Reset that can end a fight quickly, although it isn't easily accessible. To craft this, you need to have a Technical Ability of at least 16 and unlock the Hacker Overlord Perk in the Crafting Perk Tree.
