Since Cyberpunk 2077 was released in December, players have been experimenting with the game’s various science fiction powers to make protagonist V run faster than anyone should be able to. Now, players are taking the fast race in Cyberpunk to the next level.
Redditor Strikielol uploaded a clip of the flaw in action in the Cyberpunk sub:
Insane Speed New Glitch without slow time Super EASY to do in r / cyberpunkgame

It works like this: first, equip the cybernetic mod Maneuvering System in a Nervous System slot (get the mod at Clínica Octavio in Arroyo, Santo Domingo). This allows you to dodge in the air – or, as Strikie reveals, crash.
Now, in the jungle, jump and run forward before hitting the ground. Time can be tricky, but as you gain momentum, it can move incredibly fast – much faster, clearly, than the developers intended V to move. Strikie moves so fast along a Night City highway that you can see cars coming and going as V speeds by.
YouTuber Max Dakka combined the maneuvering system with the reinforced tendon leg cyberware mod to gain additional height in the heels. Max Dakka suggested a challenge: get around Night City’s ring road as quickly as possible.
It is the beginning of the Cyberpunk speedrunning effort (an existing favorite is to try to have sex as quickly as possible), and previous executions used a combination of cyberware that allows V to propel in the air while decreasing time. This new method, however, does not involve decreasing time and is therefore much faster.
If you are wondering, the current Cyberpunk 2077 any% of time to complete the world record is just over three hours, defined by Cold Cypher. Spoilers, obviously!
