Complete The Beast in Me: Badlands race in cyberpunk 2077. Learn the best driving strategy for off-road terrain and dust storms.
Walkthrough
- 1After completing The Beast in Me: City Center, wait one day for Claire to text you. Skipping time 24 hours may be required, but doing another activity is recommended if the text doesn't arrive.
- 2Read and reply to Claire's text, then travel to the marked location on the map.
- 3Call Claire upon arrival and sit on a nearby bench to trigger the race's loading sequence.
- 4After the timeskip, speak with Claire, take the shard she gives you, and enter the Beast (your vehicle for this race).
- 5Wait for the race to begin. This race features off-road driving through difficult terrain like narrow ravines and muddy ground.
- 6Alternate between accelerating and idling to maintain speed and control. Accelerate for short bursts on clear, straight paths and let off to navigate upcoming obstacles.
- 7Follow the guide arrows carefully, as the race will sometimes lead you onto roads only to veer off into the badlands. Do not drive too fast.
- 8Navigate through watery ravines and a dust storm, which obscures the scenery and helps you focus on the guide arrows.
- 9The final stretch is at the solar power plant, featuring tight turns and solar arrays as obstacles. Be careful not to hit them.
- 10Upon finishing the race, Claire will offer a ride back to the garage. You can accept or decline.
- 11Exit the vehicle at the garage to complete the quest.
- 12Wait for a follow-up text from Claire to begin the next job in the questline, The Beast in Me: Santo Domingo.
Tips
