Getting Harris’ IP address is an optional prompt during The Hunt sidequest in Cyberpunk 2077. Doing so may be fairly simple, but will need a prerequisite done prior to setting out on this quest with River Ward.
The Hunt quest is part of River Ward’s story and is necessary to complete if players want to romance him. After getting his NCPD badge taken away for attempting to reopen a coverup, he asks V for help in tracking down his missing nephew Randy as he no longer has the same resources. Their investigation leads V and River to discover Randy’s laptop, containing a series of emails between a child abductor as well as a disturbing video. Successfully leading this investigation to the farm is important to saving Randy and maintaining a positive relationship with River.
After reading through the emails between Harris and Randy and finding the video file on the laptop, River will ask V if they can “use any of that netrunner magic” to get Harris’ IP address from the emails. This requires an Intelligence Level of 12, which will then open up the hacking window, but the code that V needs to input is simple. If V doesn’t have a high enough Intelligence Level at this time in Cyberpunk 2077, they’ll tell River it’s too advanced for them.
However, the task of obtaining Harris’ IP address during The Hunt is somewhat pointless. Whether or not V is able to crack the code and get it will likely not affect the outcome of the quest at all. What leads V and River to discover the location of Harris’ farm is not the IP address but rather the dream braindances from Rhyne that V will need to scan for clues regardless of whether or not they got the IP.
This side quest in Cyberpunk 2077 can be failed according to fans if V guesses the name of the farm incorrectly. River will mention that Harris’ IP places him outside Night City approximately within a dozen miles, but the correct name of “Edgewood Farm” is found through the braindance session. The investigation can lead River and V to this conclusion whether or not V obtains the IP.
This child abduction case is one of the more disturbing side quests in Cyberpunk 2077 along with quests like Sinnerman. Once V and River successfully get to Edgewood Farm, they’ll see that Randy isn’t the only boy that was kidnapped and players should be wary of the terrifying imagery that can be found there because unlike Sinnerman, V can’t opt out of seeing it while still successfully completing the mission.
Cyberpunk 2077 is out now for PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One, and is currently in development for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
