Cyberpunk 2077 – E3 2019 Trailer Analysis! (In-Depth!)

In today’s Cyberpunk 2077 E3 Trailer analysis / breakdown will go through the E3 2019 trailer and in a follow up video the gameplay trailer and the showcase at E3 2019. As always we will pick apart all the details, things you missed and piece together the story in between. This is going to be a long and detailed video so grab a Ciderpunk or NiCola Soda and enjoy.

Our first shot of the gameplay trailer is an expansive shot of Night City. Now we’ve analyzed all the ads before so after this video go check that one out. For now we will only dive into the redesigns and the new ads. The only notable thing here is the change of color from the Arasaka sign and the Kiroshi ad redesign.

I have to say watching this in 4K is absolutely stunning. The game was announced to be 80GB in size and I’d imagine thats due to the explorability of all these floors and levels.

At 13 seconds we see the NCDP Aerodynes flying above. These are likely similar to the police aerial vehicles from the teaser trailer. At 14 seconds in we see a new ad with a bunny infront of an American flag. Due to the nature of the building it’s on, this makes sense and well get to that shortly.

At 15 we see the no-tell motel which is obviously has some sexual connotation. This is a brothel hotel of sorts and there is a ton more evidence as we go through.

At 17 seconds we see the first ad we didn’t get a look at in the All Ads explained video. It seems this man laced in gold is representing an Ad for Mr Studd, a sexual augmentation used in the source material of Cyberpunk 2020. We can also see the catchphrase all night every night distinctly.

We also see a sign for the Love Hub down below. In last years demo we saw the sign for the Love hub and entered it, so it looks likely we are still in the Watson area. We’ll get concrete proof of this later on/
Braindance is another advertisement we see within the city background. We’ve seen this before on advertisements from the demo, and it has a heavy presence. Braindance is a sort of VR on steroids that has high addiction potential.

As Male V pulls up we get a brief glimpse of the cabs logo on the side. It doesn’t seem to be the same logo from the Combat Cab service from the demo and the source material. It’s likely this is a new or redesigned cab service for 2077 as we fast forward a bit to see a Minotaur logo on the vehicle .

As we pull up to the back shot of Male V we can inspect his jacket to see it’s slightly different than the one from last years demo. This could possibly be the differences between Male and Female variants, variants in general or a redesign.

As the camera pans out we see a better shot of some joygirls and possibly a joyboy outside the brothel. These are in sessence the prositutes in the world of Cyberpunk and we see their hourly rate which is likely 120 eddies. I say 120 eddies versus 12 from a hint we will see later.

As Male V bangs on a hotel apartment door we see an image of the hallway. It mirrors the megabuilding the Scavengers were held up in the 2018 demo, at least aesthetically.

At 39 seconds, Dex’s bodyguard answers the door. We’ve seen him before guiding Female V into Dexters cruiser and potentially him pre cyberware upgrade due to his hands in the 2018 trailer. His hands in the trailer are Augmented versus the human hands he has prior. We also see his neck augment is made by Zetatech a prolific megacorp from 2020. They also own the Knowhouse that V lives in in the 2018 demo. Also he kind of looks like Jon Bernthal, and let me know if you agree in the comments.

At 43 seconds we see his Cybernetic hand and the fact that he’s plugged into something originating from his lower back.
At 51 we see a red light bed also further reinforcing the fact that this is a brothel. I’d imagine if we visit these areas in game we can bring back NPC for some extracurriculars.

At 57 we see apple is still alive and well in the future as Dex seems to be tracking his daily caloric goals. Or maybe it’s a new fitbit. Doesn’t seem like its working however and he still has quite the gut.
Male V seems to have brought back a chip for DeShawn. Now if we look at the description of the trailer on YouTube and descriptions of the main story of the game on online retailers, we understand what this could be. It says “Become V a cyber enhanced mercenary outlaw going after a one of a kind protype implant. The key to immortality”.

We also see Tbug helping out DeShawn. TBug was our netrunning companion that can be seen frying an araska agent in the 2018 trailer, as well as helping us pick locks and doors in the 2018 demo. She has a J.O.H.A patch.

Tbug proceeds to open a Trauma Team device to use in combination with what im theorizing is the key to immortality or something of the sort. Remember trauma team is a high end insurance in night city and will literally bring you back from death. This chip looks like its going to be used in conjunction with a TT device.
