King’s gun in Cyberpunk 2077 is Coronation, Weak Kingsley’s iconic Tech revolver, and you get it during the Clampdown side quest added in the free Edgerunners 2 Update (2.5). To unlock Clampdown, finish the main job The Heist, complete two gigs for the fixer Wakako Okada, and then wait for her message. The revolver is in a smuggled package in the prison bathroom, partway through the quest.

The rest of this guide walks you through each step, explains what the gun does, and covers what to try if Wakako’s text never shows up. Details are as of late October 2026 and may change with future patches.

Who King is and why his gun is in the game

King, full name Weak Kingsley, is a character from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2, the Netflix anime’s second season. CD Projekt Red released Update 2.5 alongside it. Push Square’s coverage of the patch notes lists Clampdown as a new side quest set before the events of Edgerunners 2. The official Edgerunners account confirmed that in the 2.5 update you can obtain Weak Kingsley’s iconic revolver, Coronation.

Update 2.5 launched on October 22, 2026 for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, according to the outlets covering the release. Switch 2 and Mac versions followed a few days later. If you play on one of those platforms, make sure your game has the update before you start.

What you need before Clampdown starts

RequirementDetails
Game versionUpdate 2.5 (Edgerunners 2 Update)
Main story progressThe Heist completed
Side contentAny two gigs for Wakako Okada, the Westbrook fixer
ExpansionPhantom Liberty is not required

Gigs for other fixers don’t count. Wakako’s gigs are around Westbrook and Japantown. If you’ve already done two of them on an older save, guides report that the message should arrive once you’ve installed the update.

How to get King’s gun, step by step

  1. Install Update 2.5 and load a save that’s past The Heist.
  2. Complete two of Wakako’s gigs. Open your map to find her gigs, or look in your journal for ones she’s already offered.
  3. Wait for Wakako’s message about King. It arrives as a text, not a call. GameSpot notes that it can take a while after your second gig, and skipping time has worked for some players.
  4. Reply to the text and track Clampdown in your journal.
  5. Follow the quest to the meeting point and then into Night City’s prison. Guides put the meeting at a BuryGer near MLK & Brandon in Santo Domingo. Follow the quest marker rather than relying on that description, in case it moves.
  6. Search the prison bathroom. Look for a Smuggled Package under a bench. Guides say a yellow hoodie marks the spot. Interact with it to get King’s gear, including the Coronation revolver.

You don’t get the gun at the end of the quest. You get it from the package partway through. One walkthrough also points out that your own gear stays locked away until you reach the prison’s armory, so Coronation is your main weapon for the first part of the infiltration. According to PC Gamer, you leave with the revolver and King’s full outfit, glasses included.

What comes in the package

The official posts describe a five-piece gear set based on Weak Kingsley. Guides list these pieces:

  • Coronation (iconic Tech revolver)
  • King’s Coat
  • King’s Glasses
  • King’s Bulletproof Vest
  • King’s Pants

One guide also mentions IconAmerica boots, so lists vary slightly. Check your inventory after you pick up the package. Hold to Reset reports a payout of 7,000 eurodollars when the quest ends, but another walkthrough says Clampdown pays no eddies at all. Treat the cash reward as unconfirmed.

What Coronation does

Coronation is a gold-plated iconic version of the RT-46 Burya Tech revolver. Like other Tech weapons, you charge shots before firing them. The Cyberpunk Wiki and the early guides agree on these stats:

  • Magazine: 8 rounds
  • Charge time: 0.5 seconds (the standard Burya’s is reported as 0.25 seconds)
  • Headshot damage multiplier: +200%
  • Armor penetration: +75%
  • Scaling attributes: Technical Ability and Cool

Where the sources disagree

Coronation is only a week old, so some details aren’t settled yet:

  • Cover penetration. The wiki says shots pierce cover at any charge level. Another source says only fully charged shots do. Test it in your game.
  • Mod slots. The wiki lists four. Player reports say it has two at Tier 3 and Tier 4 and four at Tier 5.
  • Tier on pickup. One source says Tier 4. Since many iconic weapons scale with your level, the tier you get may depend on your progress.

Upgrading it

Like other iconics, you can upgrade Coronation to higher tiers in the crafting menu with weapon components. This keeps it useful later in a playthrough.

Coronation and dual-wielding

Update 2.5 added dual-wielding for pistols and revolvers through the Double Trouble perk. That perk only works with Power handguns, according to the guides, and Coronation is a Tech revolver. So you can’t currently dual-wield King’s gun. If you want two pistols at once, you’ll need Power weapons in both hands.

If Clampdown won’t start

If Wakako’s text hasn’t arrived, work through these checks in order:

  1. Check your game version. Make sure the game shows Update 2.5. On console, check for pending updates manually.
  2. Confirm that The Heist is fully done and you’re past the sequence immediately after it. One guide says the quest won’t trigger earlier.
  3. Count your gigs. You need two completed gigs from Wakako specifically. Gigs from Regina, Padre, Dakota and the other fixers don’t count.
  4. Pass some time. Use the wait option or sleep in an apartment, then check your messages again.
  5. Keep playing. One guide suggests reaching Street Cred 16 if nothing else works. Another site claims you need Street Cred 20 and every Tier 2 Wakako gig, but that conflicts with the other coverage, so treat it with caution.

If none of this works, check the official Cyberpunk 2077 support channels and the game’s patch notes for known issues. CD Projekt Red often fixes quest-trigger bugs in hotfixes.

Is it worth going after?

If you play a Tech or Cool build, Coronation is a strong choice. The high headshot multiplier and armor penetration reward careful, charged shots, and you get a full cosmetic set for the same trip. Clampdown also sits early in the story, right after The Heist, so you can pick it up near the start of a new playthrough. If your build is built around dual-wielding Power pistols, think of Coronation as a collectible or a sidearm for now.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need Phantom Liberty to get King's gun? +

No. Clampdown and the Coronation revolver are part of the free Edgerunners 2 Update (2.5). Several guides confirm the quest does not require the Phantom Liberty expansion.

Can I dual-wield Coronation? +

Reportedly not. Update 2.5's dual-wielding works with Power pistols and revolvers through the Double Trouble perk, and Coronation is a Tech revolver, so guides say it can't be paired.

What if I walk past the package in the prison? +

The revolver comes from the Smuggled Package in the prison bathroom, not from the quest's final conversation, so search the bathroom before moving on. Simply meeting King or reaching the prison doesn't give you the gun.

Why hasn't Wakako texted me about Clampdown? +

Check that Update 2.5 is installed, that The Heist is done and that both completed gigs were Wakako's. The text can take a while, and players report that skipping time helps.
