Within the Cyberpunk 2077: Edgerunners anime, it is made clear that Adam Smasher is aware of the process and production of constructs. This theory proposes that Smasher isn’t a simple borg conversion, but rather Arasakas most powerful construct.

Edit: Adam Smashers scan during the ending DOESN'T show his body composition. Take this information as you will, whether it's because V lacks the tech to properly perform a composition scan or if it's because it is a different Smasher than during the braindance. Let me know what you think.
Let me know all your thoughts down below! Do you believe Smasher is a construct or not? What additional evidence might you have to support or refute the theory? Interested to see what you all have to say. Have a great week chooms!
During my first play through I was extremely convinced that smasher was a construct even to the point I was wondering how he even got a full body replacement and the process of that procedure. I truly believe that smasher is just a skin mask and a brain 💯
I already knew he was a construct since the nuking of 2023. After he came back, It was confirmed.
That’s something I always thought about, it’s very obvious actually. Arasaka has no reason not to turn him into a construct considering he’s a very valuable asset and basically a machine already.
Couldn't he be both at the same time one taking out Johnny & the other fighting Blackhand since yes Adam Smasher is 80 Machine. meaning He was always in the one that fought Blackhand. Remember Adam didn't know what V meant when you say Johnny send his regards while fighting V.
great vid bro
Him being a construct wouldn't explain his damage while fighting him, so I believe V indeed has killed Smasher in the flesh.
However, I can believe Adam was experimented upon, seeing as he'd do anything to become stronger and having little say to what happens to his mechanical body, it is possible Arasaka's robots have his killing = reward attitude, minus the property damage part involved with his mindset.
❤👍🏾
I’m going to act like the Rebeca we saw die was also a construct to cope with reality.
S'why I didn't shoot him after beating him. Let him sit with the loss, he'll be back anyway. Plus it's a waste of a perfectly good bullet!
Well, another book i did not know existed. The Bartmoss one i mean. The existence of self-construct blows apart my other theory regarding 2023. If Smasher had it, then he would have definitely survived the nuclear blast, no matter if his borg body was blown apart or his biopod baked. TT-TT
If Samantha could restore even part of an iradiated memory chip, then Arasaka can pull Smasher's engram out of his mildly slagged body's memory storage.
It's a shame the dude doesn't seem to have a way to make another appearance – we deserved a better showdown than what V got to have with him. Seriously, I zeroed Smasher in less than 1 min (30 seconds?) in my first playthrough. Of all the things the devs had to cut out, I most regret the time that would have been needed to make the last boss fight in the game something memorable.
They have clones of his brain on standby to be injected with his engram and to be installed into replacement bodies upon death. If you look at his model the only thing about him thats not metal is the brain and potentially the spinal column.
I don't know if he was construct or not but in my head I like to think that he have been copied at some point, just like Saburo Arasaka. He is super dangerous and effective and he's been serving Arasaka for so long so it would only make sense to make a copy of him. He is so iconic in the Cyberpunk world and I can see him returning in the CP2077 sequel or even in Phantom Liberty DLC somehow. I would love to see him come in and crush our loved ones into a pulp once again
Whoa didn't know that.
Here is a larger theory. I suspect arasaka is not letting on just how far their biochip program has really gone. They have made several variants of the biochip. A cyborg variant that can interface with certain android types with a certain degree of bio components. The lead example of that is adam smasher. The second is what I will call the V chip which is what johnny was put into. That chip can interface with a body and introduce a new operating system to replace the current software but the process is very slow hence there is dual boot possibilities. The third is the suburo chip which unlike the V chip can copy data far more rapidly resulting in a faster transfer while deleting the original operating system. The fourth though is one I think is a much simpler faster tech that merely turns anyone anywhere any time into a doll. This tech though is no longer in the hands of arasaka as its now used by the likes of Blue eyes and other individuals who use a combination of genetic modification and hardware modifications to slowly convert someone into a doll without their knowledge. Then when the time is right they simply take control and control that person as an engram. Once they are done they simply exit out as the person resumes their normal life. Unlike dolls though they have full control of the body. Dolls unless damaged cybernetically have some control but in engram form there is absolute control. That is why V can not force control while johnny has control. Its just a theory but it makes sense. The perallez family shows the modification process. A cyberpsycho attack investigated by winter which seems almost like the person in question was controlled remotely. The way that blue eyes was able to carry out a cyberattack on V that unlike any other attack in the game seems to ignore all the basic mechanics. Honestly this is all theory but it makes a degree of sense.
Makes sense he's more machine than man now regardless. I don't doubt his threat of this isn't over.
Smasher is a construct and so is David from Edgerunners or atleast I mean he gets turned into one like they tried to do with Jackie after he died
The more I think about Smasher and the circumstances of his death the more I think about the possibility of Arasaka having an engram of him they’ve been hiding as a backup.
And that he very well could come back as a full robot implanted with the engram
i like more the thoery like in dark souls 1 like hollows you dont become a hollow if you have an objective and goal in mind once you lose it you lose your self thats why the main character can't go mad
I don't think the Smasher we (V) fights in the game is a construct. He has a brain, as one can see after finally winning the fight.
But I do think Arasaka has a backup of him somewhere, to put in a robot.
Also, why wouldn't a construct work in a fully robotic body? Alt Cunningham (or at least her AI version) is perfectly fine, out on the net, which is just a bunch of computers, which she can infiltrate and control. How would a construct controlling a robot be any different?
Considering that we see his brain before fully taking him out, I'm saying no… the Smasher we fight is probably not a construct. However, I would find it extremely unlikely that Arasaka hasn't created a backup.
It was always obvious to me that he was a construct, personally.
We know that relic constructs do better when they are matched to meat that is keyed to the original construct, as Arasaka has not yet completely perfected the technology. It makes perfect sense to me that construct Smasher may still require his biopod to function properly.
