Yasha’s Sniper Rifle is an iconic weapon in Cyberpunk 2077, but acquiring it cannot be done by simply playing the game.
Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the few games that has managed to do the unthinkable by winning its audience despite a less-than-stellar launch. The developers continue to do an amazing job fixing and improving the game, which also includes new content, like vehicles and weapons. But some weapons, such as Yasha’s Sniper Rifle, are not readily available like others.
Yasha’s Sniper Rifle is an interesting weapon, but it is not available via a gig in the game. In fact, it is no longer available for anyone except those who took advantage of the Twitch drop when it was live from September 25 to October 21, 2023. Keeping this in mind, this guide will cover everything there is to know about this Twitch drop and how eligible players can still get the weapon today.

CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077 is filled with great weapons, and unlocking the Widow Maker gun requires completing a gig for Panam.
The Cyberpunk 2077 Twitch Drop: Yasha’s Sniper Rifle
Cyberpunk 2077 players were encouraged to do the following to get free Twitch drops, including Yasha’s Sniper Rifle:
- Link Gog and Twitch accounts. It is worth noting that Xbox and PlayStation users could also link their platform accounts to GOG and Twitch for free drops.
- Visit the Twitch Drops page (Unfortunately, the page is no longer available).
- Gift two subscriptions to a channel that has Drops-enabled.
- Redeem the code on the Cyberpunk 2077 “Redeem” page to get Yasha’s Sniper Rifle.
Players would only get the Twitch drop if they gifted subscriptions to specific streamers on the

“Support a Streamer” page, which is unavailable since the campaign is no longer active.
Players who got the code but did not use it can still do so on the Redeem page. Unfortunately, those who missed this Twitch drop have no other way to acquire the weapon. The gun will be available in your apartment or vehicle after redeeming the code.
Is Yasha’s Sniper Rifle?
Yasha’s Sniper Rifle is an iconic weapon that can one-shot enemies, but you need a smartlink. However, the biggest drawback of this weapon is that the range is not good. So, if you were looking for a sniper build, this weapon is not worth looking into unless you are willing to get up close and personal with enemies.
