Braindance is a feature in Cyberpunk 2077 that allows anyone who uses it to experience the life of another person, as they lived it.

Users take a Braindance cassette and insert it into their neural system and then they enter a deep meditative state, allowing the product to transport them into the brain.

How to Use Braindance?

In Cyberpunk 2077, you can access braindance, a form of entertainment that is so immersive you forget you're inside it.

Here's how to use braindance and what you can do with it in Cyberpunk 2077.
  • You can watch or listen to whatever you want, whenever you want, and it's even possible to interact with the media you're consuming inside braindance.
  • If you're a user, you'll either have a permanent signal port installed in your head or, if you're getting a temporary fix, a skullcap with a built-in interface.
  • The braindance experience can continue outside your virtual reality pod and into the real world. This is a huge benefit for users who are on the move and want to take their media with them.

Different Types of Braindance in Cyberpunk 2077

In a nutshell, braindance is a recording of your brain’s electrical activity. This activity is then translated into digital information (and a few other things we won’t go into) and used to create a digital simulation of your consciousness a.k.a "play braindance recording"

Braindance is a kind of media, the main part of which is a full-sensory recording of a person's experience, including all their senses, along with their emotional and hormonal responses.

Braindance recordings can be watched, listened to, or directly implanted into someone's brain.

Many people in cyberpunk 2077 heavily use braindance.

How to Access & Download Braindance Recordings

Dangers of Braindance in Cyberpunk 2077

If a BD player has a poor imagination, they may become addicted to the BD, as they will not be able to tell the difference between the real and the fake. (Braindance addiction is a major theme in the game, and will play a vital role in the plot.)

There are many dangers of braindance.

First, the procedure to get the chip implanted in your head is incredibly expensive. If you choose to go the legal route, you have to jump through many hoops and are often denied access. (The official reasoning is that braindance is too addictive; that it could cause psychological damage to the user.) 

If you choose to go the illegal route, you must know someone with access to a black market surgeon that can implant the chip without killing you.  The procedure is risky, but it is the only option for the majority of people who want to experience braindance.
