Cyberpunk 2077 has made an incredible comeback. Once considered a potential disaster, it’s now celebrated as one of the best open-world role-playing games ever made. The game is visually stunning and boasts a truly memorable story.
Now that CD Projekt Red has released the modding tools, it’s clear why fans are so excited to heavily modify the game in 2025. Some of the best mods released this year have really kept *Cyberpunk 2077* fresh and engaging.
ReLUX (Lighting Redux – Accurate Lighting)
Makes The Game’s Lighting More Accurate Than Ever
- Mod Link
Good lighting is crucial for a great gaming experience, and fans of *Cyberpunk 2077* will be excited about mods that enhance it. ReLUX is a popular and effective option for players looking to improve the game’s lighting in a subtle way.
This mod helps players feel more connected to the vibrant, neon-lit world of Night City. Compared to other lighting options, it’s subtle and effective, making *Cyberpunk 2077* look remarkably realistic and immersive.
Fighting Gangs Allowed – Reasonable Police
The Police Response Won’t Seem Odd If Players Take Out Violent Gang Members
- Mod Link
Although recent updates have significantly improved the police system in *Cyberpunk 2077* since its initial release, it still feels incomplete. Considering the high level of gang activity and violence in Night City, you’d expect the police to appreciate V dealing with criminals, but that isn’t always the case.
The NCPD actually gets upset when you eliminate gangs, and they’ll quickly come after V for doing so. This can be frustrating, which is why this mod is so useful – it makes the police less reactive if V is simply fighting enemy gangs.
Disappearing Enemy Health Bar Fix
A Simple Fix For A Minor Bug
- Mod Link
While the user interface in *Cyberpunk 2077* is generally well-designed, it can sometimes feel cluttered and confusing. Specifically, enemy health bars appear and disappear inconsistently, which can disrupt the player’s immersion.
As a player, I really like this mod because it keeps enemy health bars up whenever I’m looking at them, as long as they’re not too far away. It’s a really subtle change, but it makes combat feel way more consistent and readable – I always know how much health they have left!
Apartments Enhanced
Fleshed Out The In-Game Apartments
- Mod Link
Responding to player feedback, CD Projekt Red added apartments to the game where players can spend their in-game currency, eddies. These apartments range from cozy and simple to spacious and luxurious.
While new apartments can get old quickly, this mod fixes that. It makes them feel like a seamless, natural part of Night City, rather than something just tacked on after the game came out – players will really appreciate the added detail and immersion.
Fixed NPC Vehicle Reactions
NPCs Don’t Have A Death Wish Anymore When V Is Driving Recklessly
- Mod Link
Night City feels vibrant thanks to its many residents, but their artificial intelligence isn’t perfect. You’ll often see them behave strangely, like unexpectedly stepping in front of your car when you’re driving fast.
This mod adjusts some confusing AI quirks to make the game feel more realistic and immersive. It makes NPCs react more realistically to danger, like avoiding getting hit by V’s speeding vehicle, which creates a more believable world.
Cutscene Weapon Swapper
Leads To Cool (And Hilarious) Cutscenes
- Mod Link
The game usually shows characters using standard weapons in cutscenes to avoid visual glitches. Some players might not like this, though, as they prefer to see their favorite, more interesting weapons on display.
Even though it’s a small mod that only shows up in a handful of moments, players shouldn’t hesitate to use it to customize their *Cyberpunk 2077* experience. That ability to personalize the game is a big reason why people enjoy mods in the first place.
Disappearing NPC And Vehicle Fix
Helps The World Feel More Alive And Less Artificial
- Mod Link
I know *Cyberpunk 2077* isn’t like *Grand Theft Auto*, so the people and cars in the game aren’t as detailed as some of us were hoping for. But that hasn’t stopped fans from finding ways to improve things and make Night City feel more alive!
The Disappearing NPC & Vehicle Fix mod solves a common issue in the game, preventing characters and vehicles from vanishing and breaking your immersion. It’s lightweight and shouldn’t cause performance problems for anyone who can already play *Cyberpunk 2077*.
Better Quality Sort
Sorting Is A Bit More Fitting And Takes Other Metrics Into Account

- Mod Link
In *Cyberpunk 2077*, weapons come in five different rarities, and their upgrades are shown with a “+” symbol. Unfortunately, the game’s weapon sorting doesn’t account for these upgrades, making it a little harder to keep your inventory organized.
This mod improves how weapons are sorted by quality, factoring in upgrades. It makes the weapon list cleaner and fixes a common annoyance for players.
