The point of no return for Cyberpunk 2077 is the mission Nocturne OP55N1, or the mission where you must go meet with Hanako at Embers. After you head up to see Hanako, you’ll be locked into the end of the game and will be unable to return to the open world proper. Before you do this mission, you’ll want to make sure you’ve put some time aside. The ending can take some time to finish, so it’s best you get at least an hour and some time ready to go.

Once you finish up and complete the ending to Cyberpunk 2077, you’ll be returned to the point of no return with all the gear you had before starting the end of the game. This will let you complete whatever side content you might’ve skipped out on or possibly do the Phantom Liberty storyline if you have yet to.

What Should You Do Before Passing the Point of No Return?

Best Tech Weapons in Cyberpunk 2077

Before you complete the game, be sure to get some supplies you might need. This includes any ammo, cyberware, or weapons you might’ve skipped out on purchasing before. Money doesn’t matter the moment you enter, so spend away. You might also want to use your one respec for skills since you’re here anyway.
