InCyberpunk 2077, ‘The Last Caress’ quest involves siding with Arasaka themselves, the ones who created the Relic killing your V and whom most of the general public detests. If you are looking for the last hope of living without Johnny, or simply didn’t complete enough side quests beforehand, you’ll probably choose this ending.
In Last Caress, Hanako Arasaka offers you a supposed solution to your Relic malfunctioning, but only if you help her dethrone her brother, Yorinobu. This quest is available no matter what choices you make in the game, as it is one of the main endings.
How To Initiate The Quest
This quest comes after you complete ‘Nocturne Op55N1’, where the game will inform you that you are entering the point of no return. Said quest will request thatyou meet Hanako Arasaka at the Embers club and discuss your options, allowing you to decide your fate.
You will have to choose what you want to do with your V, andif you have not exhausted your side quests with everyone, you will only have two optionswithin ‘Nocturne Op55N1’, to end your life or side with Arasaka.
Should You Stealth Or Go In Guns-Blazing?
If you save Takemura during the quest ‘Search and Destroy’,he will accompany both V and Hellman in Last Caress, helpingyou to take down any enemies you face.
Once Hellman drives you to the estate, a guard will stop the car and start asking questions, and the more questions that he asks,the more often you will see the option to attack him.
Though Hellman said not to cause a stir, you are free to attack the guard, andif you don’t, Hellman runs him over anyway.This is where the action really starts, asyou must fight your way through the estate to reach Hanako.
Even though this first guard dies,you can still maintain stealth if you wish.
