You can claim five Witcher-inspired items in Cyberpunk 2077 through Ariadne’s in-game delivery after installing Edgerunners 2 Update 2.5. Finish her first clothing message without choosing [SEND TO SPAM], advance time by 24 hours, then open the crate in V’s original apartment at Megabuilding H10 in Little China. The package contains the iconic Sihil Sword, Boar Carver knife, Ursine Jacket, Ursine Pants and The Professor’s Spectacles. Equip the three clothing rewards, answer Ariadne’s photo request and you will keep the outfit and receive 4,300 Eddies.

What do I need to claim Ariadne’s free Witcher gear?

The only gameplay requirement is Edgerunners 2 Update 2.5, which adds the Ariadne interaction. CD PROJEKT RED’s update FAQ says the update is free to owners of the base game: “No, Edgerunners 2 Update (2.5) is free to all players who own the base game of Cyberpunk 2077.” Phantom Liberty and the Ultimate Edition are not required.

The FAQ lists PC, Mac, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S availability, with Nintendo Switch 2 described as coming soon in that rollout notice. Anyone who does not own Cyberpunk 2077 must purchase the base game first. The reward can be claimed immediately after beginning a new playthrough; your story progress does not matter.

  • Install or update to Edgerunners 2 Update 2.5.
  • Own the base game of Cyberpunk 2077.
  • Have access to V’s original apartment in Megabuilding H10.

How do I start the Ariadne quest?

Ariadne’s route begins with a clothing-contact message. Open the message and complete the conversation, taking care not to select the [SEND TO SPAM] response. Reports indicate that sending the message to spam can prevent the package from being delivered.

  1. Launch the updated game and open Ariadne’s first clothing message.
  2. Finish the conversation.
  3. Choose a response other than [SEND TO SPAM].

Where is Ariadne’s package in Cyberpunk 2077?

After the first conversation, use the pause menu’s Skip Time option to advance 24 hours. Wait for Ariadne’s follow-up message confirming that the package has been delivered.

  1. Open the pause menu.
  2. Select Skip Time and advance 24 hours.
  3. Read Ariadne’s delivery confirmation.
  4. Fast-travel to Megabuilding H10 in Little China, Watson.
  5. Enter V’s original apartment, not one of the purchasable apartments.
  6. Look for the crate to the left of the entrance and open the apartment Stash.

What Witcher items are in the crate?

The stash contains five rewards. The Sihil is an iconic sword, while the Boar Carver is a knife. The remaining three pieces form the clothing set needed for Ariadne’s photo request.

Reward Type How it is used
Sihil Sword Iconic sword Claimed from the H10 apartment stash
Boar Carver Knife Claimed from the H10 apartment stash
Ursine Jacket Clothing Equip for Ariadne’s photo request
Ursine Pants Clothing Equip for Ariadne’s photo request
The Professor’s Spectacles Eyewear Equip for Ariadne’s photo request

How do I finish Ariadne’s photo request?

Equip the Ursine Jacket, Ursine Pants and The Professor’s Spectacles. Then reopen Ariadne’s message chain and select Take Picture. The game opens Photo Mode; send the resulting image through the contact thread.

You do not need a carefully staged composition or a saved photo for the interaction to count as complete. Once the sponsorship interaction closes, Ariadne lets you keep the clothing and pays 4,300 Eddies. GamesRadar and Beebom both report the 4,300-eddie payout.

What should I do if the Ariadne rewards are missing?

Check the delivery triggers and location in order. The most common causes are an incorrect opening reply, visiting the wrong apartment or cosmetic items being hidden by mods.

Verify the first reply

Reopen the message history and confirm that you did not choose [SEND TO SPAM]. If that response was selected, the delivery may not proceed normally.

Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

Check the correct stash

Return to Megabuilding H10 in Little China and enter V’s original apartment. The crate is beside the entrance; another apartment’s stash will not contain Ariadne’s package.

Temporarily disable mods

Player reports cited by Beebom describe cases in which mods hid the cosmetic rewards. Disable cosmetic or inventory-changing mods, restart the game and check the H10 stash again.

Allow the delivery window

The package does not appear until the 24-hour skip and Ariadne’s follow-up message have occurred. Complete both steps before troubleshooting the crate itself.

Is Ariadne’s pack the same as the old Witcher promotion?

No. Ariadne’s delivery is a current in-game route tied to Update 2.5. It does not require ownership of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt or a linked CD PROJEKT RED account.

Do not search My Rewards for the Ariadne items: that older promotion and the current delivery use different claim systems.

Does the quest depend on story progress?

No. The reward can be claimed immediately after starting a new playthrough, so you do not need to reach a particular main-job milestone or complete Phantom Liberty. You still must install Update 2.5 and complete Ariadne’s message conversation before the delivery timer begins.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I claim Ariadne’s rewards on a fresh save?

Yes. The reported route works immediately after starting a new playthrough, regardless of main-story progress. You only need the base game and Update 2.5 installed.

Do I need Phantom Liberty for the Witcher gear?

No. The Ariadne pack is part of the free Edgerunners 2 Update 2.5 and does not require Phantom Liberty or the Ultimate Edition.

Why can’t I find the Sihil Sword in My Rewards?

The Sihil and the other four items are delivered to the stash in V’s original Megabuilding H10 apartment. My Rewards belongs to the separate, older Witcher promotion.

Do I have to save the photo Ariadne requests?

No. Open Photo Mode from the Take Picture option and send the resulting image in the contact thread. The interaction can count as complete without carefully staging or saving a photograph.
