The New Scorch Tech Pistol in Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty

Phantom Liberty Iconic Pistol – Cyberpunk 2077 faced a turbulent launch back in December 2020, with a multitude of technical issues and a general sense of incompleteness. But as time passed, the developers kept their promise to improve the game, and now, almost three years later, Cyberpunk 2077 has made a triumphant return with the v2.0 update and the introduction of the Phantom Liberty DLC.

This expansion brings with it a fresh wave of content featuring new characters, weaponry, gear, a new spy-thriller storyline, and a whole new district known as Dogtown. And for fans of The Witcher series, there’s a delightful surprise waiting! In this article, I will guide you through the steps to acquire the new Tier 5/Iconic tech pistol, Scorch, in Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty.

Much like the Witcher-inspired Gwynbleidd sword, Scorch is a promotional reward for the Phantom Liberty DLC in Cyberpunk 2077.

To claim Scorch in CP2077, you need to meet one key requirement: own the new Phantom Liberty DLC and have Gwent: The Witcher Card Game in your Game Library. Gwent: The Witcher Card Game is a free-to-play game available for mobile devices (iOS and Android) as well as on PC. The essential step here is linking your Gwent and Cyberpunk accounts to the same GOG account. Once this is sorted, follow these simple steps to snag this tech pistol for free:


For PC:

  • After installing the game, log in to REDlauncher using your GOG account.
  • Click on ‘My Rewards’ in the REDlauncher to claim your Scorch tech pistol.

For PlayStation/Xbox:

  • From the main menu of Cyberpunk 2077, open MY REWARDS and log in using your GOG account.

Note: If you haven’t already got a GOG account, you can quickly register for one here.


Once you’ve successfully claimed your rewards via the “My Rewards” section, make your way to V’s Apartment in Little China, Watson. Inside the apartment’s stash, you’ll discover your new and high-tech sidekick, the Scorch tech pistol. Simply select it and press the Transfer button to add it to V’s inventory.
