Totalimmortal

Key takeaways

Use these points to prepare for Totalimmortal without exposing the mission’s major revelations.

• This is an ending-route mission Totalimmortal is not a repeatable side activity. It belongs to the Arasaka conclusion and becomes available through the preceding main-story route.
• Bring a flexible combat setup The mission can include stealth, hacking, ranged combat, and close-quarters encounters. A build that can change weapons or approaches is more useful than one built only for a single damage style.
• Listen before moving forward Several objectives are advanced by conversations and scripted movement rather than by clearing every room. Moving ahead too quickly can skip optional dialogue or make the route feel less clear.
• Expect major story spoilers The mission explains important parts of Arasaka’s succession crisis and directly prepares the next ending chapter. Read the later sections only after completing the mission.

Totalimmortal overview

Totalimmortal is the decisive Arasaka-route mission in Cyberpunk 2077, moving V from Hanako Arasaka’s rescue operation into the corporation’s internal power struggle.

Totalimmortal follows Last Caress and continues the route in which V accepts Hanako Arasaka’s offer to expose Yorinobu Arasaka. The mission shifts the focus away from street-level preparation and toward Arasaka’s corporate hierarchy, with V accompanying Hanako into a controlled environment where the fate of the company and the Relic become inseparable from the boardroom conflict.

The mission combines restricted-area infiltration, scripted conversations, corporate security encounters, and a late combat sequence. Its structure rewards players who pause to listen to Hanako’s instructions and search the route for alternate approaches, but it eventually becomes a more direct confrontation. The exact amount of combat depends on the player’s build, cyberware, weapons, and willingness to use stealth or quickhacks.

Totalimmortal is also important because it sets up the immediate follow-up, Where Is My Mind?. Major revelations about Yorinobu, Hanako, and the Arasaka succession are made during this section, so players who want to avoid ending spoilers should stop before reading the detailed walkthrough, choices, aftermath, or boss sections below.

WalkthroughSpoilers

1. 01

   Accompany Hanako

   Begin the operation with Hanako

   After Last Caress, remain with Hanako and follow the objective markers rather than leaving the route to explore Night City. The opening section is heavily scripted, so wait for conversations and prompts to finish before attempting to move through the next secured area.

   Location: Arasaka-controlled endgame route

   TipUse this opening to reload weapons, check healing items, and listen for the next destination.

2. 02

   Proceed to the meeting

   Follow the guided route through Arasaka security

   Advance through the interior spaces with Hanako and use the available doors, corridors, and access points indicated by the objective. Some areas are designed to be crossed as part of the escort sequence, so forcing unrelated doors or running ahead can create confusion about the active objective.

   Location: Arasaka facility

   Watch outDo not treat every locked or guarded room as an optional objective; the mission’s critical path is controlled by the current conversation and waypoint.

3. 03

   Attend the meeting

   Reach the corporate meeting

   Continue until Hanako brings V to the Arasaka board meeting. Remain attentive during the exchange, because this conversation establishes the political purpose of the operation and leads directly into the confrontation with Yorinobu.

   Location: Arasaka boardroom

   TipA manual save made before the meeting is useful if you want to review the dialogue or examine the consequences of the route.

   Missable
4. 04

   Support Hanako’s accusation

   Watch the succession dispute unfold

   The meeting presents Hanako’s case against Yorinobu and reveals the conflict inside the Arasaka family. Let the scene play out before searching for a combat route; the mission does not ask V to resolve the dispute through ordinary dialogue alone.

   Location: Arasaka boardroom

   Watch outThis section contains major plot revelations about the Arasaka family and should be considered a spoiler section.

5. 05

   Survive the security response

   Respond when the meeting turns hostile

   Once the boardroom sequence breaks down, move with the new objective and prepare for armed resistance. Use cover, quickhacks, grenades, or controlled bursts rather than standing in the open, because the surrounding security units can pressure V from several angles.

   Location: Arasaka Tower interior

   TipDisable cameras and isolate enemies where possible before committing to a long exchange of fire.

6. 06

   Reach the next objective

   Push through the combat section

   Clear the hostile Arasaka forces blocking the route and keep checking the objective marker after each encounter. The safest approach is to advance from cover to cover and avoid overextending into the next room before confirming that the current area is secure.

   Location: Arasaka Tower interior

   Watch outIf V is incapacitated, the mission reloads from its latest checkpoint; progress since that checkpoint is lost.

7. 07

   Reach Mikoshi

   Continue toward Mikoshi

   After the confrontation, follow the remaining route toward Mikoshi instead of returning to the earlier meeting area. The mission’s final movement is a transition into the next chapter, so finish any preparation you want before crossing the final objective point.

   Location: Arasaka Tower and Mikoshi access route

   Checkpoint
8. 08

   Complete the mission

   Complete Totalimmortal and begin the next chapter

   Finish the final interaction and allow the transition to Where Is My Mind? to occur. This closes Totalimmortal’s operational section and moves V into the consequences of the Arasaka plan.

   Location: Mikoshi access area

   Watch outThe next mission continues the ending sequence; use the last safe opportunity before the transition if you want to return to open-world activities.

Mission mechanics

Totalimmortal alternates between an escorted narrative sequence and conventional combat. During the escort sections, the objective marker can matter more than the apparent openness of the environment: V is expected to remain on the route with Hanako, and many doors or side spaces do not contribute to mission completion. The mission therefore feels more linear than most open-world jobs, even when the player can approach individual encounters with different tools.

Combat is influenced heavily by the player’s build. Stealth users can reduce the pressure by controlling sightlines and removing cameras, netrunners can interfere with enemies before exposing themselves, and weapon-focused builds can use cover and short advances through the facility. There is no need to commit to one method for the entire mission, and changing weapons or quickhacks between encounters can make the later sections more manageable.

The most important practical mechanic is checkpoint awareness. Totalimmortal contains several transitions between dialogue, movement, and combat, so a failure may return V to an earlier scripted point rather than the exact location of defeat. Keep healing resources available, avoid sprinting into unrevealed rooms, and confirm the objective after each major scene before moving on.

What works and what does not

PhasesSpoilers

1. 1

   Hanako’s escorted approach

   Starts: Mission start after Last Caress

   V follows Hanako through the Arasaka route while the next stage of the plan is explained.

   • Stay near the objective marker and wait for dialogue triggers.
   • Use the quiet portions to check ammunition, healing items, and cyberware readiness.
2. 2

   Boardroom confrontation

   Starts: Arrival at the Arasaka meeting

   Hanako presents her case and the internal succession conflict becomes explicit.

   • This is a major story scene rather than a conventional combat arena.
   • Save beforehand if you want to revisit the conversation without replaying the entire mission.
3. 3

   Arasaka security response

   Starts: The meeting collapses into violence

   Hostile corporate forces block V’s progress through the tower.

   • Arasaka securityTell Enemy movement and weapon fire become apparent as the route opens into combat spaces.Answer Use cover, disable surveillance where possible, and advance only after confirming the current group is under control.
   • Avoid pushing beyond cover into the next room without checking sightlines.
   • Quickhacks and grenades can break up groups that otherwise keep V pinned.
4. 4

   Mikoshi approach

   Starts: The security route is cleared

   V completes the final movement toward the objective that leads into the next mission.

   • Finish any desired preparation before crossing the final transition point.
   • The sequence leads directly into Where Is My Mind? and the Arasaka ending conclusion.

Boss encounterSpoilers

• Location
  Late Arasaka Tower combat section
• Health
  Not specified in the available source material

Totalimmortal’s late combat sequence is associated with Adam Smasher on the Arasaka route. Keep distance when the arena allows it, use cover against heavy ranged pressure, and spend healing resources before V is forced into a desperate recovery. Builds that can combine sustained damage with mobility are safer than relying on a single slow attack pattern. Because encounter details can vary with difficulty and version, focus on reading the arena and objective rather than following a fixed damage script.

Choices and consequencesEnding spoilers

• Commit to Hanako’s Arasaka plan

  Totalimmortal becomes available as part of the Arasaka ending route and leads into the corporation-focused conclusion.

  Spoiler
• Use another endgame path instead of Hanako’s route

  Totalimmortal is not played in that run; the selected ending path determines which finale missions follow Nocturne Op55N1.

  Spoiler
• Continue past the final transition

  V moves into Where Is My Mind?, leaving the ordinary open-world structure behind for the next stage of the ending sequence.
