One of the best features every role-playing game offers is the ability to switch back and forth between first-person and third-person views. Titles such as Skyrim or Fallout 4 grant players that choice, but quite sadly, that isn’t an available option in Cyberpunk 2077. With this work-in-progress, players can play Cyberpunk 2077 in third-person view with the option to choose from 4 different camera angles while in-game. Bear in mind that some bugs may arise if you install this mod such as missing heads or arms.
