Cyberpunk 2077: Shoot to Thrill Gig Guide | Game Rant – GameRant

The Shoot to Thrill side job in Cyberpunk 2077 will challenge players' trigger speed but can lead to powerful rewards and some much-needed Eddies.

Cyberpunk 2077 is filled with different missions, side jobs, and gigs to finish. It is easy for players to feel a little overwhelmed at the start of the game, but some of these tasks are certainly worth doing and doing well as soon as they appear in the game. The Shoot to Thrill side job is something players should do as soon as possible as it can give an Epic M-10AF Lexington Pistol if the player finishes in first place. This powerful weapon can be very useful in the early stages of Cyberpunk 2077.

The Shoot to Thrill side job is offered by Wilson, the gun store owner near Vs apartment. It will only be available in the game after the Playing for Time main story quest is completed. Players will need to wait until Wilson contacts them on the phone and informs them about a shooting contest that he is holding in his gun store.

Agree to take part in the contest, then head to the 2nd Amendment gun store right beside Vs apartment. The quickest way to get there is to fast travel to the building's teleport point, then walk down the stairs and around the balcony on the left. Players can onlyfast travel between teleport pointsinCyberpunk 2077, so it may be necessary to open the map, find the nearest fast travel location, and drive there to interact with it and fast travel. When players go inside the gun store and speak with Wilson, they can start the contest.

Players will need to walk to the predetermined booth on the range and draw a weapon for Wilson to begin the countdown. It is possible toshoot any target on the range, and players are not limited to shooting just the targets in their own lane. While powerful, revolvers force the player to reload too often, losing time to spend shooting targets. There will be a pistol on the counter of the range that players can use, but the ideal weapon is any Lexington Pistol variant due to the magazine's size.

A final, yet vital, aspect of winning this contest is to shoot each target as many times as possible. Simply shooting them once will not be enough to get first place, and players should try to land four to five shots on each target before they disappear. After testing, there does not seem to be a set number of shots the player needs to land to get first place, but landing 100 shots will guarantee a win. It is a good idea to save the game before starting the contest if a repeat of the side job is required.

When the contest is complete, Wilson will announce the winner. If the player comes first, the prize is $500 and the Epic M-10AF Lexington Pistol. Second place will result in a higher Street Cred reward for the mission. Third place or lower will result in the player only receiving the default Street Cred for completing the gig.

Cyberpunk 2077 is available on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One with PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions in development.
