The Hunt Complete Walkthrough: Cyberpunk 2077

Step 1: Enter River Ward’s Car and Head to the Lab

After helping River Ward uncover the truth behind the Mayor’s murder, he requests to meet up in the evening. Begin the mission by entering River’s car to watch a video with him that provides critical information. You’ll then follow River to the lab.

Upon arriving, you’ll notice the lab door is closed. If you lack a Level 12 Technical Ability required to open one of the alternate entrances, don’t worry; you can still continue. Circle the building to scout for another way inside. On your exploration, you’ll find a location where you can climb into the lab’s courtyard. Use the wall here to make your way over.

Step 2: Gain Entry to the Lab and Locate the Correct Cabinet

After getting past the external barriers, climb the ladder right above the lab’s locked main entrance. At the top, interact with the second window to access the lab. Once inside, your next task is to find the correct cabinet. Head into the main lab, located in the central area at the back end of the building.

You’ll encounter two possible entrances to the room. One is locked, and River will even point this out. However, the other remains open, providing access to the space you’re looking for. Inside, you’ll notice several game consoles and children’s drawings on a whiteboard. Activate your scanner to locate the cabinet and open it.

Step 3: Talk to Yawen Packard and Return to River’s Car

After discovering the cabinet, you’ll meet Dr. Yawen Packard. Engage in a conversation with her. Once you’ve finished your discussion, leave the lab and return to River’s car. This wraps up the segment involving the lab.

Step 4: Search Randy’s Computer for Clues

The search for clues begins at Randy’s home. Underneath Randy’s bed, you’ll find a computer containing important information. Scan the device and sift through his emails. Focus on the second-to-last email, which directs you to investigate a webpage titled “Drugs are Bad.”

Navigate to the “Net” tab on the computer, select the “Drugs are Bad” site, and examine the available options. To progress, click on the red people icon located to the left of the screen to uncover more information.

Step 5: Locate Anthony Harris’s Hidden Webpage

Through your investigation on the site, you’ll unlock access to a hidden page labeled “Tony’s Shelter.” Fully explore all the menu options on this page to gather insights. If you click on the “Files” section, you may notice that a key file is missing. This missing file, however, is stored in Randy’s “Files” section, accessible via the laptop.

Return to Randy’s computer, click on the “Files” section within the Net tab, and access the laptop files. This should provide you with the information you need to move forward.

Step 6: Watch the Cartoon and Analyze

Next, River will ask if you can extract additional information from the cartoon you’ve uncovered. While players with a Level 12 Intelligence skill can obtain Anthony Harris’s IP address, this step isn’t mandatory to proceed.

From here, you’ll begin processing Anthony Harris’s Braindance the following morning. The first Braindance takes place in a school setting. Focus on visual (yellow) objects during your scan. Begin by analyzing the teacher at the 00:02 timestamp, proceed to the cafeteria exit monitors at 01:19, and finally, scan the trophy at 01:22. Exit the Braindance once you’ve acquired this key data.

Step 7: Examine the Barn During the Second Braindance

The second Braindance shifts to a barn scene from Anthony’s past. Carefully inspect items in this sequence. Start by scanning the cow at 00:02; you may need to circle around it to trigger the scan. Next, focus on the console at 00:07, followed by scanning “Dad” at 00:09.

Investigate items like the cattle injector lying near the pens at 00:55 and the bags filled with supplements at 01:05. These insights are vital for piecing together what happened in this location.

Step 8: The Third Braindance – Barn Present Scene

Your final Braindance centers on a present-day version of the barn. Begin by scanning Tony as he leaves the office at the 00:25 mark. Continue down the corridor, scanning the monitor at 00:30 and the electrical parts nearby at the same time. Analyze the fuel barrels at 00:34.

Enter the main barn section and examine the light and sound effects on the ceiling at 00:36. Identify and scan visual elements, including victims one through four, their infusion pumps, and the FDNC certificate scattered over the next twenty seconds. Pay attention to additional details like the computer inside the office at 00:49, as well as the barn’s external skyline visible at 01:16. Exit the Braindance after completing these steps.

Here’s the complete scan list:

• Visual | Data (as Tony exits the office) – Time: 00:25
• Visual  | The monitor in the corridor – Time: 00:30
• Visual  | Electrical Parts at the other side of the corridor – Time: 00:30
• Visual | Fuel Barrels – Time: 00:34
• Audio  | Light and sound effects (on the ceiling in the main barn) – Time: 00:36
• Visual  | Victim 1 – Time: 00:38
• Visual | Victim 2 – Time: 00:43
• Visual  | Infusion Pump – Time: 00:43
• Visual | FDNC Certificate – Time: 00:45
• Visual | Victim 3 – Time: 00:45
• Visual | Computer inside the office – Time: 00:49
• Visual | Victim 4 – Time: 00:54
• Visual | Number (Farm Model) – Time: 00:57
• Visual | Outside of the barn (City Skyline) – Time: 01:16

Step 9: Drive to the Farm and Gain Entry to the Barn

With the Braindance sequences complete, drive with River to the identified farm location. Upon arrival, be cautious of security measures. Disable the turrets guarding the front of the house and barn to ensure safe passage. Carefully scan for any mines that might be hidden nearby to avoid triggering dangerous traps.

The barn itself is locked, so look for an alternate entry point. On the side of the structure, you’ll find a ladder that allows you to ascend and drop down into the barn. Once inside, assist River in rescuing the victims, bringing the mission to its dramatic conclusion.
