Cyberpunk 2077: Everything We Know About Tyger Claws And Their Lore – TheGamer

Throughout Cyberpunk 2077, V and the player encounter a considerable amount of gangs, but none as cool and scary as Tyger Claws (well maybe Maelstrom are a little scarier).Tyger Claws are a well-known and deadly gang that roams Night City. However, they're shrouded in mysteries that even the biggest fans don't know about.

They're badass Katana-wielding beasts who control much of Night City and have some serious friends. However, as it is with a lot of Cyberpunk gangs, Tyger Clawskeep much of their details secret. They seem to be buried deep into both the criminal underworld and the corporate highlands. All this and so much more is the reason this gang is so loved by fans.

Cyberpunk 2077 often shows the character how important connections in Night City can be. One of the main reasons that Tyger Clawshave become as huge as they are is due to their affiliations.

While a lot of gangs are powerful without the help of anyone else, Tyger Claws have the friendship of the one and only Arasaka on their side. This not only allows them to be practically indestructible but gives them access to unbuyable cybertechnology and military-grade automatic weaponsmeaning this gang has an edge like no other.

Due to this friendship with Arasaka, their size, territory, and combat skills, many fans have actually deemed Tyger Claws as the most powerful gang in Night City.

While many other fans and critics of this idea think it to be Maelstrom, the two gangs are actually pretty powerful in their own rights. But if it came to battle, it is military-grade techvs.black-market mods along with two completely different fighting styles.That battle would certainly be an interesting fight to see.

The biggest gang in Cyberpunk 2077 goes to The Aldecaldos with a whopping 10,000 members! The smallest is the Voodoo Boys with a tiny 50-250 members. Interestingly, Tyger Claws sits on the higher end of this withmore than 5,500 members ready to complete jobs and hack and slash.

These numbers make for a well-organised and well-populated gang that is ready to do anything to get what they want or complete a job. Ultimately, Tyger Claws are one of the biggest gangs in Night City with all its members being in the same place, unlike The Aldecaldos. This makes them extremely scary and rather unavoidable if V messes with them.

Going by the names ofTaki Kazo, Jun Azegami, and Marcus Ichida, Tyger Claws don't run the hierarchy of their gang-like those of Maelstrom or The Aldecaldos.

This gang has a series of leaders, all working together to achieve their goals. V meets all of them at one point in the game and does, in fact, dictate the future for some of these leaders. Nevertheless, it's interesting that they all work together instead of killing or having an established hierarchy.

Tyger Claws clearly don't run their gang like anyone else in Night City and, unlike 6th Street who lost their way protecting the city from other gangs, the Tyger Claws seem to have stuck to their morals and keep working towards the same goal.

Their ideals are to protect the Asian community of Night City in 2045 with the gang helping rebuild Japantown back to its former glory. It's nice to see a gang trying to do good and sticking to their promise of helping innocent people rather than killing them (most of the time).

Due to it being such a sizeable gang, it would be a problem if the leaders and passers-by didn't know that this goalof protection wasn't as concrete as it sounded. As it is with any gang, there are much lower-down members who love to stray away from their morals to quench their bloodlust.

The Tygers are quick to turn to cruel and horrific killing, as well as harassing bystanders and provoking any fight they can. The leaders would punish them, but many of these events just go unseen.

Due to Japantown being Night City's best nightlife district, the Tyger Claws basically run Night City's nightlife. Moreover, they own more businesses than anyone else controlling restaurants, clubs, casinos, bars, and braindance clubs.

The gang isn't stupid though; many of these are registered and legal businesses (as long as no one looks behind the curtain). Thatreveals a world of human trafficking, prostitution, drugs, and hitmen.

The database of Cyberpunk 2077 reveals that the Tygers Claws is a mixing pot of Asian communities and other communities all coming together to fight a common cause. However, the Chinese and Japanese demographic is undeniable.

Many character models in the game, sadly, look similar to one another and the game has been widely panned for its lackluster graphics performance. But players can usually spot Tyger Claws membersby their awesome tattoos, swords, and pimped-out motorbikes.

The Yakuza are basically the Japanese Mafia and run most of the underground operations. So having members of the Yakuza come over and work for Tyger Claws certainly makes them even more deadly and terrifying.

This may be the reason that Tyger Claws are not adverse to a little abduction, murder, or torture if needbe. But ultimately, it shows just how many people want to be in this gang, as well as the rich culture behind it.

While Maelstrom owns the Watson District and the Wraiths and The Aldecaldosfight over the Badlands, the Tyger Claws are unopposed with their multiple factions in multiple districts. Namely: Westbrook District, Watson District, Japantown, Charter Hill, Kabuki, and Little China.

These all show just how powerful this gang is.The amount of territory they're based in proves their lust for power and need to upscale both their businesses and their locations.
