One of the few Katanas added to includes the Byakko, which players can earn if they complete a side gig questline. The Byakko Katana comes with a few unique perks that make it one of the best Katanas to unlock and use for a strong melee build. The Katana can increase V's melee range by 1 and has the ability to leap on an enemy from a distance.

Using the Byakko Katana also has another benefit that can significantly impact core melee gameplay. Killing an enemy with the Byakko will grant V a status effect that removes the pause after three light attacks. This will let players create their own combos until V's stamina runs out. Other benefits include inflicting enemies with a bleeding effect (35% chance).
