Returning players of Cyberpunk 2077 for the new Phantom Liberty DLC may recall that the highest tier of cyberware, known as Iconic, represented the pinnacle of quality in the game. These items held significant importance in the game's lore. However, with the recent 2.0 update, numerous changes were made to Iconic items, either altering their statistics or removing their Iconic status altogether. This was likely done to create a more balanced playing field in anticipation of the release of Phantom Liberty.

The Phantom Liberty DLC introduces a wide array of new items, including several pieces of Iconic cyberware. This guide will provide a comprehensive list of each new item and offer instructions on how players can obtain them. With the inclusion of these new pieces, coupled with the enhanced perk system, players will be able to truly embody the legendary status of their character, V, in Night City.
