Complete walkthrough for the Nasty Hangover Gig in Cyberpunk 2077. Learn how to infiltrate the warehouse, retrieve the Data Shard, and deal with Karl Ginsky and Kang Tao.
Walkthrough
- 1Locate the Warehouse: The Gig begins with you needing to get past a parking lot and into a warehouse. Use the Ping quickhack to identify enemies.
- 2Neutralize the Lookout: The first target is a thug on the upper floor of the warehouse, visible from the parking lot. Use a silenced weapon for a headshot or a quickhack like Short Circuit, Overheat, or Suicide.
- 3Clear the Parking Lot: Once the lookout is down, deal with the guard in the parking lot. Hide bodies in dumpsters along the front of the warehouse.
- 4Infiltrate the Warehouse: Proceed into the warehouse. You can stealthily take down enemies by observing their patrol patterns and using dumpsters to hide bodies, or engage in direct combat.
- 5Retrieve the Data Shard: After clearing the warehouse, head upstairs (or use an elevator) to a netrunning operation. The Kang Tao Data Shard is on a table near a computer.
- 6Optional: Access Hidden Area: On the ground floor, a door requires a Body 18 check. Beyond it, you might find a random legendary item.
- 7Meet Karl Ginsky: Leave the warehouse and call Karl Ginsky to arrange a meeting at a nearby construction site.
- 8Deal with Kang Tao Enforcers: Upon meeting Karl, a car of Kang Tao enforcers will arrive. You have three choices:
- Save Karl: Immediately gun down the Kang Tao enforcers before they can kill Karl. This ensures Karl survives and gives you the full reward.
- 9Side with Kang Tao: Let the enforcers kill Karl. Afterward, talk to the Kang Tao leader and claim payment for finding the data.
- 10Let Karl Die (and then fight Kang Tao): If you don't act fast enough, Karl will die. You can then choose to fight the Kang Tao enforcers. Rogue will consider the job botched, but you still receive the base reward.
- 11Receive Reward: Rogue will call after the situation is resolved, providing the main reward of €$17,610. If Karl survives, he gives you an additional €$2,000 Credit Chit. If you side with Kang Tao, you also receive a €$2,000 Credit Chit.
Tips

- Optional: €$2,000 Credit Chit from Karl Ginsky (if he survives).
