New “Clampdown” Quest in Cyberpunk 2077 Edgerunners 2 update
Clampdown is a new side quest that is set before the events of the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 anime.
You take on a dangerous mission after getting a call from Wakako. This leads V into the heart of the NCPD headquarters for a high-risk mission. He is joined by King and his crew.
Players must complete The Heist, finish two gigs for Wakako and then wait for her message.
After completing the quest, players get a five-piece gear set inspired by King, who is one of the anime’s featured characters in Season 2.
Dual-Wielding and New Customization Options
In the new update, Double Trouble perk has been introduced in the Cool skill tree. This will allow players to dual-wield power pistols and revolvers.
Character customization has also been expanded with the introduction of Glamdocs. They are the new vendors that can let you customize Mantis Blades, Gorilla Arms, Monowire, and Projectile Launch Systems.
