7. Side Quest and World Exploration
Complete the side quests and explore the open world to add value to the game. Missions that are not tied to your overall progress offer character experiences, rare equipment, and anything related to Night City that widens your knowledge. Unlock these assignments by engaging with different characters and factions. Many of these missions often lead to exciting mini-quests and large gains.
Exploring the world is also rewarding. All the districts of Night City ranging from the streets of Watson to serene areas of Badlands are full of secrets and wonders. Observe and follow signposts and make meaningful communication with NPCs to find hidden objects and additional perks.
