How to respec in Cyberpunk 2077
To respec your skills and character perks in Cyberpunk 2077, it costs money
To respec in Cyberpunk 2077 and reset your skills and perks, you simply pay for it - an option available to you on the character menu, and a change made as part of the major 2.0 update, whereas before you had to spend an ungodly amount of money at Ripperdocs to get something called a Tabula E-Rasa. But that option is gone now, and there's instead a far more accessible (and cheap) option available from the main menu. Here's how you respec in Cyberpunk 2077 in the wake of the 2.0 update.
How the Cyberpunk 2077 respec system works
To respec your character in Cyberpunk 2077 you simply need to go to the character menu and access the Reset Perks option in the bottom left of the screen. That will show you how much it will cost to refund all your perk points only - your attribute points are untouchable however, so those points can't be changed. Click on it to open a confirmation dialogue and if you're happy with the cost and ready to respec, click to continue.
It's a big improvement over the old Tabula E-Rasa Progression Shard. At an initial cost of 100,000 eurodollars it made respecing your character an expensive luxury. Clearly CD Projekt Red was aware players didn't like it as it was initially reduced to a cost of 25,000 in patch Patch 1.2, and then removed entirely with patch 1.3 and replaced with the current system. Now you just pay according to the perk points you have unlocked, which is a cheaper and fairer option. For my character, even with 71 point to play with, I've only got to spend 16,200 Eurodollars for a full reset.

After playing the scariest mission in Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, I'm going to need CDPR to make a fully-fledged survival horror RPG right now
Cyberpunk 2077 sequel director says CDPR may "never" win some fans back, but hopes future games like The Witcher 4 will: "That's unfortunately the price we have to pay"
