What are the best katanas in Cyberpunk 2077? They range from the Tsumetogi to the Cocktail Stick.
If you want to stay alive in Cyberpunk 2077‘s dangerous Night City, you need the coolest and best guns. While it’s great to have the biggest and most powerful guns in the game, a good fighting tool will help you more when you need to stay hidden.
It shouldn’t be a surprise that some of the best melee weapons in Cyberpunk 2077 are katanas, which are one of Japan’s most famous melee weapons. Night City is full of ideas and themes that are based on Japan. These katanas are some of the best in the game.
Basic Katana
Best Early Game Katana
One of the easiest weapons to get early in the game is the basic katana, which is a normal version of the katana assault weapon. The weapon doesn’t come with any mods or extra effects, but as you level up, you can make better versions of it.
Once all of the improvements are fully unlocked, the basic blade can hurt your enemies with Electrical, Thermal, and even Chemical damage. This is a good fighting tool to have when you are just starting out the game and trying to figure out where you are.
Black Unicorn
A Fun Reference To Another Beloved Title
In Cyberpunk 2077, you can find the Black Unicorn, a one-of-a-kind sword. You can’t get this one-of-a-kind tool from normal in-game tasks and goals. To get it, you have to go to the game’s main area.
In the bottom right area of the screen, you should see a choice that says “my rewards.” If you click on this to link your game account to your GOG account, the katana will be in V’s stash. The Black Unicorn blade is in tubes that look like Witcher III, which makes it even more unique.
Tsumetogi
A Bloody Trophy From A Revolution
The Tsumetogi is a great katana fighting weapon that you can get by finishing the Cyberpunk 2077 side quest “Pisces.” It can be a rare, epic, legendary, or famous weapon in the game.
In a one-on-one fight, this weapon is very dangerous because it lets you hit up to five times per second. The Tsumetogi also makes you 10% less vulnerable to electricity, increases the damage you do with electricity, and gives you a small chance to shock your enemies.
Byakko
A Powerful Melee Weapon With Impressive Range
The Byakko katana is a one-of-a-kind sword that you can get from Wakako Okada once you finish all of her Professional Widow side quests.
When you use this weapon, you can jump-slash from one enemy to another, which makes it unique among the katanas in Night City. You will also be able to hit from closer range by one meter and have a 15% better chance of applying Bleeding.
Cocktail Stick
A Way To Remember A Friend
You can get the Cocktail Stick sword as a rare, epic, legendary, or iconic weapon. It has three mod spots. Anyone who sees this bright pink sword will want to touch it. You can find it at the Clouds Club during the “Automatic Love” side quest.
Some of the most dangerous weapons in Cyberpunk 2077 are in this group. The Cocktail Stick can do 91 to 111 damage to your enemies. The tool also has a 20% chance of giving your foes the Bleed effect.
Satori
The Easiest Legendary Katana To Obtain
Every hit from the Satori blade does 179 to 219 damage. It has a 48.78 percent higher chance of a critical hit and a huge 599.9 percent higher chance of doing critical damage. The tool also gives you a 20% chance to Bleed your enemies, which slowly lowers their health as the battle goes on.
The famous form of the satori blade can be found with Jackie Welles during “The Heist” task. The most interesting thing about his weapon is its long past. The sword belonged to Saburo Arasaka. It is an old blade that was made sometime in the first half of the 20th century, but it is still very sharp after all these years.
Scalpel
A Memento From A Rescue
With an extra critical hit chance of 59.73 percent and other critical damage of 105.35 percent, the Scalpel katana can do 118 to 230 Electrical damage. This makes it one of the most powerful legendary weapons in 8 Ball Pool.
Along with more Electrical damage, the Scalpel gives you an extra 20% of a chance to Shock your targets and an extra 50% of a chance to get a critical hit if you have Sandevistan cyberware running. The Bleed effect will also be applied to the people you hit at the same time.
Jinchu Maru
The Overall Best Katana In The Game
Fighting style katanas like the Jinchu Maru can be yours if you beat Sandayu Oda in the “Play It Safe” task. The weapon is as clean as a katana can get in Cyberpunk 2077; it doesn’t have any changes or add-ons. It can do up to 178–218 physical damage, and it has a 48.78% chance of critical hit and a 99.34% chance of critical damage.
With each hit, the weapon has a 20% chance to apply the Bleeding effect to the target. If you pair this weapon with the Kerenzinkov nervous system cyberware, you will have a 100% chance of getting a critical hit. You also do twice as much damage with the katana’s last strike in every move, and you do four times as much damage to enemies with up to twice your health.
