What's the best option for Jackie's body?

For the best story, loot, and closure in Cyberpunk 2077, sending Jackie's body to his family (Mama Welles) is the superior option, unlocking the emotional "Heroes" questline, a proper funeral, and his iconic weapons, while still granting you his bike; sending him to Vik results in Arasaka taking the body, locking you out of these meaningful moments.

What should you do with Jackie's body?

In Cyberpunk 2077, you should send Jackie's body to his family (or tell Delamain to wait) to get the full emotional story, attend his funeral (the "Heroes" quest), receive his ARCH motorcycle and unique pistols, and experience a more complete narrative; sending him to Vik's clinic skips most of this, leading to a tragic outcome where Arasaka gets his body and uses Soulkiller on him.

What is the best option for Jackie in cyberpunk?

It's just a shame that going that route ends up with Jackie being taken by Arasaka. With this last tidbit it makes sending him to Mama Wells the best option. But that requires knowledge V wouldn't have. So in character Vic is the right option, as a player Mama Wells is the best option.

What happens if I tell Delamain to wait with Jackie's body?

Telling Delamain to wait with Jackie's body (or sending him to his family) unlocks the "Heroes" side job, allowing V to attend Jackie's funeral, collect his iconic pistols, and get his ARCH motorcycle, providing a more complete emotional closure, though it delays getting V's car; otherwise, if sent to Viktor, Arasaka steals the body, leading to a darker, more tragic outcome where you miss the funeral and gear.

Is there a way to prevent Jackie from dying?

No, in Cyberpunk 2077, you cannot permanently save Jackie Welles from dying; his death during "The Heist" mission is a scripted event central to the story, but you can influence what happens to his body afterward, leading to different story paths and potential encounters with his personality in an engram (like with Viktor or Hanako). While some players explore glitches or mods, the core game narrative makes his death unavoidable for a full playthrough.

What if Jackie died with the biochip?

If Jackie died with the biochip (Relic) still in his head, he likely still wouldn't have survived because his fatal injuries were massive blood loss and organ damage, which the Relic isn't designed to fix; it's for rewriting brain damage, not physical trauma, so the chip would have activated and probably just failed to save him, or at best, started Johnny Silverhand's engram on a doomed journey into a body with no life left to sustain, making the main story happen to Jackie instead of V.

Would the Relic have saved Jackie?

No, Jackie Welles would likely not have lived even if he kept the Relic because he died from massive blood loss and trauma (gut/chest wounds), not a head injury that the Relic's nanites were designed to repair like V's. The Relic saved V by repairing the bullet damage in the head, but Jackie's fatal wounds meant his heart stopped and there wasn't a functional brain for the chip to save or integrate with before he died, so he still would have bled out.
