Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty Firestarter Mission Walkthrough
Go to the stadium
In the Firestarter mission, you start off in the netrunner twins’ car, pretending to be them and preparing to meet Kurt Hansen. Drive carefully to the stadium, following the marker on the map.
Head into Hansen’s den
Once you park at the stadium, go with Alex to the entrance. You’ll face some security measures and have different dialogue options, but it won’t affect the outcome. At the den’s entrance, meet Murphy, Kurt Hansen’s right-hand man, who will show you BARGHEST’s weapons and artillery. Stay in character and follow Murphy to meet Hansen.
A chat with Hansen
Sit down with Kurt Hansen as Aurore and Aymeric Cassel. Answer his questions accurately to maintain your cover. Use the dossier pop-up if you need information. Your choices here will determine the outcome.
Betray Songbird or Betray Reed
After convincing Hansen of your identity, Songbird informs him that the mainframe is ready. Hansen insists that one of you stay with him while the other goes with Songbird. You must choose whether to betray Songbird or betray Reed.
What happens if you betray Songbird in Phantom Liberty?
If you betray Songbird, Alex will be shot by Hansen. The Icebreaker program fails to incapacitate Songbird, and she goes on a rampage, blaming you for Alex’s death. Fight your way through the building, retrieve your weapons, and confront Hansen. Loot his body for rewards and escape with Reed.
What happens if you betray Reed in Phantom Liberty?
If you betray Reed, Alex kills Hansen. Follow Songbird’s lead, retrieve weapons, and escape through a sewer tunnel. Have a chat with Songbird and escort her to her car. Reed explains the next part of the plan, or you can handle it yourself if your Intelligence level is high enough.
Final verdict on the Firestarter mission in Phantom Liberty
Firestarter is a crucial mission that impacts the main narrative of the Phantom Liberty DLC. The choice you make leads to different missions and endings for the DLC. Helping Songbird unlocks The Killing Moon quest and the King of Swords and King of Wands endings. Helping Reed triggers the Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos mission and the King of Pentacles and King of Cups endings. Consider creating multiple saves to experience different outcomes.
