The True First Person Camera 2.0 mod, featuring a complete overhaul of the first-person view, has been released for Cyberpunk 2077

Modder DigitalVixen has released True First Person Camera 2.0 for Cyberpunk 2077, a substantial rework of the game’s first-person view that touches nearly every part of how the camera behaves during exploration, combat, and traversal.

The mod improves the first-person camera in several distinct ways. Players can now adjust the camera’s height and depth to match their own preferences, and the mod adds a noticeably more immersive view whenever the player looks down at their own character’s body.

Free Look, Weapon IK, and a New Vehicle Camera

One of the headline additions is a free-look mode, which lets players keep walking forward while independently looking around in any direction, rather than being locked to the direction of movement. Alongside that, the mod introduces an IK (inverse kinematics) system for weapons, which repositions held weapons to sit more naturally relative to the camera, while still allowing players to revert to the game’s original weapon positioning if they find it more comfortable.

The update also brings a new camera system for vehicles, motorcycle lean behavior, a dedicated inspection camera for ammunition, and improved first-person animations for weapon equip sequences.

All of these settings live in a single menu that can be opened at any time with a hotkey, without needing to dig through separate tabs or submenus. Every option and adjustment is accessible from one straightforward pop-up window, making it easy to fine-tune the mod’s behavior mid-game while paused.

Per-Vehicle Camera Profiles

The update introduces a dedicated first-person camera configuration system for each vehicle type. Players can choose from one of three camera profiles for cornering behavior, plus one of three motorcycle lean profiles. All six of these profiles can be adjusted directly in-game, without needing to edit configuration files manually.

Configurable First-Person Equip Animations

True First Person Camera 2.0 also adds a system governing first-person equip animations, letting players control when those animations play and how likely they are to trigger. Separate settings are available for melee weapons, firearms, and cyberware, so players can fine-tune the frequency of these animations independently across weapon categories.

Reflection-Aware Head Display

Finally, the mod adds a system that displays the character’s head on their body when viewed in reflections. For players using ray tracing or path tracing with player reflections enabled, the character’s head will now actually appear in mirrors and other reflective surfaces, something the base game does not handle by default. The head automatically hides again when the player draws a weapon, along with a handful of other specific situations where it would otherwise look wrong.

Where to Get It

True First Person Camera 2.0 is available now on the mod’s Nexus Mods page, along with gameplay demonstration videos showing the free-look mode, the vehicle camera profiles, and the equip animation system in action.

Overall, this is a substantial mod for anyone looking for a reason to replay Cyberpunk 2077, particularly players who found the base game’s first-person camera stiff or overly restrictive during exploration and vehicle sequences.
