A new Cyberpunk 2077 mod inspired by the recent Cyberpunk Edgerunners anime will let you start out your journey roleplaying as Lucy, one of the main characters from the show. Getting it right requires you download a number of Cyberpunk 2077 mods for the RPG game, but the result feels like one of those incredible alternative start mods.
The custom start mod finds Lucy from Edgerunners starting a new life as V before meeting up with the main crew from the anime, with “Lucy’s Beginning Custom Start” mod creator onesieninja outlining how they fit it into their own headcanon.

You’ll also be assigned 38 perks that “match what she’d likely have been trained in by Arasaka
