Mods for Cyberpunk 2077 have already turned Night City into the Matrix and given us flying cars, but if you need an extra metal arm when it comes to combat, or maybe just a friendly robot buddy, this latest fan creation might be for you. .
Drone Companions from modder Scissors is adding a brand new implant to Cyberpunk 2077 called the TechDeck. It works similarly to the cyberdeck, except that its outfitting allows players to use various components to instantly create companion robots. TechDecks come in rare, epic and legendary qualities and are available in various locations, recipes for various androids and robots can be found at weapon vendors.
The mod adds a new tab to the crafting screen. You create drones using a number of new crafting components (which will appear in shops and NPCs after installing the mod), and they come in several varieties: flying drones, humanoid androids, and powerful mechs. There is also the option to upgrade your bots with TechHacks, which add abilities like an invisibility cloak or a speed boost. Scissors provided a handy demo video, which you can watch below.
Also note that in combat, your droid companions are much more likely to attack enemies you’ve already targeted, and you can only have one mech at a time – they’re pretty unwieldy after all.
