How many endings are there in Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty?
There are four endings in the Phantom Liberty DLC for Cyberpunk 2077, but two are slight alterations of the same path. They are significant enough to be classified as their own endings, however, as your decisions lead to very different outcomes for some major characters involved in the story (including V!).
You most likely won't miss when you're about to make a choice that leads to one of these four potential endings, as they're pretty major decisions. However, for some spoiler-free advice on when to be careful (or when to create a manual save to fall back on), the first big decision you make that affects what ending you get is on the 'Firestarter' main mission. Depending on what choice you make here, the second big decision will then be on the 'Somewhat Damaged' or 'The Killing Moon' main mission.

You can techincally get a bonus secret ending if you choose the "I'm out" option while talking with Reed in the 'Lucretia My Reflection' main mission, but this has no story implications other than locking you out of the story, so we don't really count it as a proper ending.
You can check out our news post on how to get this secret ending if you want to know how!
Keep reading for more details on each ending and how to get them, but keep in mind there are major spoilers below this point.

Including the most significant consequences of each path, here's all endings in Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty:
endingEnding 4 - V refuses to kill SongbirdV helps Reed try to capture Songbird, but doesn't kill Songbird at the Cynosure baseAlex dies, Songbird lives, Reed lives, and you get the option of an alternate base game ending
We've got full details on how to get all four of these endings below.
How to get Ending 1 in Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty
To get Ending 1 where V sends Songbird to the moon, you have to:
Help Songbird escape during the 'Firestarter' main mission.Don't turn Songbird over to Reed at the spaceport during 'The Killing Moon' (either time).Kill Reed at the spaceport when you refuse to put Songbird down.
The option to help Songbird comes when V and Songbird are alone in the room with the Cynosure device.
If you don't kill Reed after refusing to put Songbird down, he will kill V instead and you'll get a game over screen, so there's no way not to kill Reed in order to get the ending where you send Songbird to the moon.
As Reed dies in this ending and isn't around to help V with their Relic issues, you don't get the option of another base game ending in Ending 1.
This is the moment you make the major decision to side with Songbird to get Ending 1 or 2. | Image credit: CD Projekt RED/Eurogamer
How to get Ending 2 in Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty
To get Ending 2 where V gives Songbird to the FIA, you have to:
Help Songbird escape during the 'Firestarter' main mission.Turn Songbird over to Reed at the spaceport during 'The Killing Moon' (second time).
The option to help Songbird comes when V and Songbird are alone in the room with the Cynosure device.
If you choose to call Reed inside the train before carrying Songbird, you have the option to not give Songbird to Reed on the rainy platform at the spaceport. It's at this point on the rainy platform that you have to put Songbird down in order to get to the ending where Reed lives and Songbird is in FIA custody.
Even if V says they don't want anything from the FIA anymore, Reed still contacts you after the conclusion of Phantom Liberty, so you have the opportunity to choose this new ending for the base game as long as you text Reed back saying you've changed your mind, then follow the quests until the 'Who Wants to Live Forever' mission.

How to get Ending 3 in Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty
To get Ending 3 where V kills Songbird at her request, you have to:
Help Reed try and capture Songbird during the 'Firestarter' main mission.Kill Songbird when she asks you to during 'Somewhat Damaged'.
The option to help Reed capture Songbird comes when V and Songbird are alone in the room with the Cynosure device.
You can tell Songbird 'that's no solution' when she asks V to kill her, but after that you must pick the 'Fine' option to kill So Mi, or you'll get Ending 4 instead.
As Songbird is dead and President Roslin (rudely) informs V she can't help with the Relic problem anymore, you don't get the opportunity to choose the new ending for the base game if you get Phantom Liberty's Ending 3.

How to get Ending 4 in Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty
To get Ending 4 where V refuses to kill Songbird, you have to:
Help Reed try and capture Songbird during the 'Firestarter' main mission.Refuse to kill Songbird when she asks you to during 'Somewhat Damaged'.
The option to help Reed capture Songbird comes when V and Songbird are alone in the room with the Cynosure device.
As Reed and Song are alive in this outcome, you'll get a message from Reed soon after Phantom Liberty ends, and you can follow this quest to the 'Who Wants to Live Forever' mission if you want to experience a new ending for the base game.
