🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This mod enhances the Guts Iconic Weapon in Cyberpunk 2077 by adding unique features when the player equips Gorilla Arms or plays as Female V, inspired by a certain gun-toting gremlin. It's a niche cosmetic/functional tweak for fans of the weapon and character-specific playstyles.

✨ Key Features

Adds unique features to the Guts Iconic Weapon when Gorilla Arms are equipped.
Adds unique features to the Guts Iconic Weapon when playing as Female V.
Designed to evoke the style of a 'gun-toting gremlin' character.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Tiny but dedicated community (50 endorsements, 3.9k downloads) — people who grab it know what they want.
  • Adds flavor to a specific weapon, making it feel more personal for Gorilla Arms or Female V builds.
  • Recently updated (July 2025), so it's likely compatible with current game patches.

⚠️ Cons

  • Very niche — only affects one weapon and two specific conditions, so most players won't see any changes.
  • Low endorsement count (50) means it's not widely tested — expect potential bugs or balance quirks.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Cyberpunk 2077 players who love the Guts weapon and want extra flair when using Gorilla Arms or playing as Female V. If you're a completionist or roleplayer who enjoys character-specific details, this is a neat touch. Skip if you want broad weapon overhauls or don't use those setups.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have the base Guts weapon mod installed (if any) — this mod likely requires it, though not explicitly stated.
  • If you're on PC, use a mod manager like Vortex to avoid manual file conflicts.
  • Test the mod with both Gorilla Arms and Female V to see all the features — they might be separate additions.
