Cyberpunk 2077 News – Collector’s Edition Confirmed, Demo Differences & My E3 Invite Explanation!

Video Leave a comment

In today’s Cyberpunk 2077 News video. Today we have a Q1 2019 Earnings Transcript from CD PROJEKT which gives us some insight into new Cyberpunk 2077 information, the developmental speed of CD PROJEKT RED when it comes to Cyberpunk 2077, and some clarification about what I’m doing for E3.

First we have the Q1 Earnings Conference ran by CD PROJEKT where they go into some financial details about CD PROJEKT and CD PROJEKT RED. Now I’m going to heatseek out the meaningful content here as im sure all of you are mainly interested in Cyberpunk. In the opening summary for the earning section CD PROJEKT references payments remitted (which means sent back) by CD PROJEKT RED to its suppliers in relation to the production of physical components of the Collector’s edition of Cyberpunk 2077. This production is carried out at a remote location; Hence it needs to begin early and calls for advanced payments. They also mention their funding of their marketing materials for their ongoing marketing campaign including the quickjly approaching E3.

This is great news because it all but confirms a Cyberpunk 2077 Collectors edition. Now the remote location is interesting because CD PROJEKT RED loves to do all of their stuff in house. Their geralt ronin statue the latest high quality figure from CD PROJEKT RED is produced in house, so I’m incredibly interested to see what will be in the collectors edition if they feel like outsourcing it is a better idea than using the incredible talents they have in studio. Now they don’t necessarily speak on outsourcing, but they do say a remote location which could be owned by CD PROJEKT and CD PROJEKT RED so maybe it is in house but being created somewhere other than in the studio.

CD PROJEKT also mentions that the CD PROJEKT RED store is a limited undertaking but they are satisfied with being able to present high quality designed items for their consumer. They want their merchandise to match the quality of the games they produce. They do plan to expand it in preparation of the launch of Cyberpunk.

Next they mention E3 and make note that they will have a public exhibition with Warner Bros where selected fragments of the content shown at the private business demo will be showcased. While the slides summarize the bulk of our presence at the fair, they are also preparing certain surprises and invite us to monitor social media and / or come to E3 in person.

Now later on in the video I want to clarify up my E3 plans so stick around for that.

In a statement to a question asked to CD PROJEKT, they mention that they want the expansion of the merch store to occur prior to the release of Cyberpunk. They intend to launch it in america as well, but they want to provide American gamers with access to the same selection as the Europeans. According to them, This is coming soon – maybe not in a week or two but soon.

In a question about VR support CD PROJEKT answers that is its not technically speaking difficulty to support VR, but that the issue comes in when factoring game design. They add that their focus on PC and console editions they are not moving in the VR direction as of now.

CD PROJEKT RED also mentions that the 400 people working on Cyberpunk is a team that is no longer growing, except for the QA branch. They also mention that the development of Cyberpunk 2077 is going at Full speed.

Now I did want to clarify on my invitation from CD PROJEKT RED to business sides demo.

Cyberpunk 2077 – Megacorporations Explained! (Agricorps, Mediacorps, Computing & More!)

Video Leave a comment

In today’s Cyberpunk 2077 and Cyberpunk lore video we are talking about the prolific megacorporations in Cyberpunk 2020 that may have a presence in Cyberpunk 2077. We will look at all the types of megacorporations and the corporations within these subsets.

In the world of Night City, Megacorps run the Cyberpunk landscape with an iron fist and are essentially judge jury and executioner. They are the kings within Cyberpunk and slaying a top tier corporate only means another unscrupulous individual, who is frothing at the mouth at the opportunity, will fill the void in the corporation.

The corporation power structure is set up so that the President and CEO are at the top and underneath them is a variety of mid to high level executives thirsty to climb up the corporate ladder.

At senior management and higher, corporates start to have true power and always travel with a heavy armed presence.

Next let’s look at the type of corporations there are, and the most prolific megacorps within that subset.

First we have Media-corporations. There are huge conglomerates that grew from a trend in the late 1980s where firms bought up all forms of media networks such as film companies, tv networks, book and magazine publishers to control the media and the narrative.

First up in our Mediacorps is network 54 news a 24 hour news service across the United States. No matter where you go within the States, it is always on channel 54. Despite it’s name it offers more than just raw news.

Next we have world news service, which is as you can imagine a news servide which keeps tabs on the world by any means possible.

Next we have Agricorps. IN the world of Cyberpunk the age of the family farm ended somewhere in the 1990s. With the United States being the world’s foremost producer of raw food stock, and the increased need for grain and crops to create fuel and plastic, agribusiness became incredibly powerful post-crash.

Petrochem is an agricorp focusing on petrochemical products and keeps the world running as the worlds largest producer of superfuel CHOOH2.

Soviet Oil world Industries known in the west as SovOil is a petrochemical corporation headquartered in the USSR.

They have a license to produce CHOOH2, although their product is inferior to Petrochems.

Next we have the Manufacturing corporations. There corporations were least affected by the collapse due to the capitalistic nature of the industry. Manufacturing ranges from vehicles to weapons, to even children’s toys.

First we have Militech which is a megacorporation specializing in weapons manufacturing of all kinds, and private military contracting.

Next we have Arasaka which deals in Corporate security, corporate policing and various corporate suboperations. Arasaka is one of the most powerful if not the most powerful corporations in the world of Cyberpunk.

EBM or Euro Business Machines is a megacorporation that specializes in the manufacturing of computer products, information tech and electronics.

Next we have IEC the world largest cybernetics developer. Now many megacorps in the world of Cyberpunk can trace their power and influence to some sort of speciality, but IEC is dominant in many areas.

Next up we have Computing corporations. With the emergence of the Net and the availability of advanced technology almost everything in the Cyberpunk world revolves around computing.

Zetatech in 2020 is an up and coming high-tech company focused on wetware, computer hardware and software designs.

Microtech is a megacorporation who produces ultra-sophisiticated mainframes and workstations and are proficient at building full-size computers.

Next we have Science corporations who produce and develop anything from bioware to cybernetics, to human clones, to crops and bio-fuels.

Biotechnica is the main Science corporation, who specializes in genetic engineering, microbiological and biochemical research.

Biotechnica had worldwide patents but could not keep up with worldwide demand and was forced to livense production to several large agricorps.

Next we have Armed Force corporations.

Lazarus is a megacorporation focused on contracting mercenaries and is lead by south American war veterans.

Finally we have the Service industries of 2020.

First we have Trauma Team one of the largest private medical firms in the world and provides ambulance services for a client base of at least 15 million people.

REO Meatwagon is Trauma Teams competitor, and provides a similar service.

Next we have Orbital Air which focuses on Cargo and passenger transport to Earths orbit and maintenance of commercial orbital facilityes.

Next we have Infocomp a corporate think-tank and group of information brokers.

Finally we have Merril Asukaga and Finch an exclusive investment and financial counselling firm. They are the top corporation dealing with investments of all kinds.

Cyberpunk 2077 News – E3 Booth, Public & Private Demo & New Screenshot!

Video Leave a comment

In today’s Cyberpunk 2077 news we are talking about some new information from CD PROJEKT RED regarding Cyberpunk 2077’s booth at E3, a New image of Male V, Marcin Iwinski and a Keynote at E3, and Cyberpunk 2077 finally joining Instagram.

I am incredibly crunched for time this week and weekend, so this is going to be a quick update, but I’m going to try to pack in all the vital information you need in this quick segment.

First we have a new Cyberpunk 2077 promotional video showcasing where Cyberpunk 2077 will be at E3. They will have a public booth in the South Exhibit Hall with Warner Bros who is their distributor for North America and typically has a dominant presence on the showfloor. Now this morning I got an invite to the private showcasing, which will last 1 hour long, and is going to be different from the public demo that they will show. Visitors will not be able to play the game at either the warner bros public booth or at the private event so im curious to see what the differences will be and why they even have a private event in the first place if they also hosting gameplay presentations for the public.

In any case, yes 2077 is looking to have a dominant presence on the showfloor. Now with this news they released a set of really awesome Male V wallpapers for mobile devices and your computer monitors. Dissecting this image a little further we see a little shift in the aesthetic of male V. He seems to have longer hair on top, his collar sports a blue LED, he has a new patch with a skull and stars, he’s holding a new weapon and 2 more curious details. He has a pin that says night city with a picture of the city being Nuked. We know in Cyberpunk Red according to Mike Pondsmith there is someone carrying around a nuke in the city, so maybe in 2077 there has been some cataclysmic event which originates from that detail. We also see his new shirt which seems to feature a broken heart and pills. The pills are highly symbolic of the movie Akira, and it even features the red and blue design of the Akira pills. Seems like it’s a nice like homage to the cult classic. There’s also some Trauma Team AV’s flying around in the background.

Next we have CD PROJEKT RED CEO Marcin Iwinski discussing the past, present and future of CD PROJEKT RED including Cyberpunk 2077, live at the E3 coliseum. I’m sure this keynote will be incredibly insightful for Cyberpunk 2077 and there’s always the possibility that CDPR’s unannounced game will be further teased.

Next we have Cyberpunk 2077 finally joining Instagram so go give them a follow as there is always the potential for exclusive content on their various social media platforms.

Cyberpunk 2077 – Richard Night, Night City & Mob Wars Lore!

Video Leave a comment

In Today’s Cyberpunk 2077 & Cyberpunk Lore video we are talking about Night City, how it was founded, the visionary behind it, Coronado City vs Night City, Richard Night, The Mob wars and the downfall of America’s dream city.

Now within the world of Cyberpunk 2020 this was reprinted to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Night City on May 17th 2019. If you take a gander at the calendar that is today in our time atleast in North America it is also May 17th 2019.

Night City was first conceived by Richard Night when he was a young partner in a construction company called Halsey Ferris and Night, which was a firm tackling massive corporate construction projects.

With hard effort and excellent results, the firm prospered and all three partners became very wealthy men. By 1990 however working on office plazas and corporate structures started to not be enough for Richard Night who departed to start his own firm Night International.

An ambitious man Night had a dream of creating a city of the future so grand that all cities build before or after it would pale in comparison. With immense design and visionary aspirations, he drew up plans for Night International to make this city a reality.

His next move would be to secure the unheard of amount of capital needed to finance the gargantuan project.

In Night’s Idealistic city, governments would be run by the corporations allowing optimum zoning and no anti-business elements to interfere with corporate growth. Ideally it would be a capitalist mecca of opportunity.

By 1992 Arasaka, EBM and Petrochem had all signed on with Night and all that was left, was to find the ideal location to build.

From the beginning Night focused on the central Californian coast due to its seaport potential, lush environment and an ideal location for an intercontinental maglev.

Funny enough whilst drafting a buy-in package with Petrochem, it was discovered that the megacorp owned the rights to drilling and most of the land situated around the Del Coronado Bay region. By 1993, Coronado City, Richard Night’s dream city was under construction.

Night’s plan involved a bay which accommodated bulk carriers, a picturesque old downtown and a gigantic corporate plaza, the new heart of the city.

During its construction however, Night International used a large number of advanced building styles and techniques which didn’t include archaic methods being used by older companies. His old associates of Halsey, Ferris and now Skiv were excluded during the building process. Furthermore, they had unwisely joined with a local mob figure who had a domineering presence over the NorCal region.

Via his scorned ex-coleagues, Night received frequent threats to his life within the first 4 years of the construction of Coronado City. A proud and self-reliant man, he typically ignored these threats. When the threats escalated, he called in for backup from his Corporate partners who dealt with the issue swiftly and ruthlessly.

Night’s luck eventually did run out however, and was shot and killed in his penthouse suite in newly constructed Parkview tower on September 10th 1998. The killer was never found, and in his memory the newly appointed city council renamed Coronado City Night City.

The next seven years were bloody as a multitude of different powers and influences battled for control of Richard Night’s vision. Whilst corporations controlled the government and the corporate center, the mob controlled the surrounding businesses and outskirts.

In this time, gangs backed by either the mob or the corporates began their ascent to power, in one of the forgotten areas of the city, known as The Combat Zone. Gangs are so firmly rooted here that only way to scramble them all would be a full on destruction of the zone.

By 2005 the Mob had ousted everyone else and became the ruling force. The next 4 years were the dark ages of night city with the mob ruling with an iron fist killing anything and anyone. In this time notorious gangs like the Blood Razors and Slaughterhouse formed, and Night City soon became the closest thing to hell on earth.

After 4 years and countless blood spilled on the streets, the corporations had enough and thus the Mob war was started between 2009 and 2011. Lagging behind in profits and reach within the city, the corporations took the battle to the streets to destroy anything not aligned with their corporate agenda.

Led by Arasaka trained para-military troops in assault vehicles, tanks and combat aerodynes, a wave of bombings, assassinations and killings descended down to the Mob who in their hubris was ill prepared.

The corporations inevitably succeeded and replaced the Mob as the new rulers of night city.

As it stands in 2020 Night city has just about recovered from its initial rocky stages. Night City is an armed society, and while complete chaos may be over, night city is very much still a dangerous place.

Cyberpunk 2077 – What’s America Like Prior To 2077? (Lore!)

Video Leave a comment

In today’s Cyberpunk 2077 and Cyberpunk lore video well be talking about America and the United States in the world of 2020 from the environment and weather to the government to the state of some of the cities and the events that have led up to 2020 that sets up the world for Cyberpunk Red and 2077.

America in 2020 isn’t the drug and gang infested hellhole many will havev you believe it is, but it isn’t also the oasis of opportunity the corporates will claim either.

In reality America in 2020 is more nuianced than this and is faced with a multitude of challenges and changes.

First let’s look at the environment and landscape of the pre 2020 era in the US. During the last 30 years or so, numerous ecological disasters have wrecked havoc on the United State’s Infrastructure. Global warming has melted the caps resulting in a higher sea level, and Large parts of the east coast and the south are now underwater or swampland. Rising temperatures due to this global warming have thawed out southern Alaska, central Canada and the upper US.

Global warming however has shriveled up The great plains and southwest, which have turned them into expansive deserts with furious sandstorms and screeching winds.

Over the past 20 years The pacific northwest region has had to contend with drought-stricken forests and a lack of water.

Night City, straddling the line between NorCal and SoCal gets the culmination of everything. – sweltering dry summers and cool dry winters with periodic acid rainstorms and choking poison ground smogs.

Sloppy pollution controls in the latter half of the 20th century has left a dent in the environment. Massive acid rainfalls hammer the Midwest, poisoning drinking water and crops.

Rock strikes from the ESA’s lunar-based massdrivers have decimated Tampa and Colorado springs and have churned up millions of tons of dust and heat into the atmosphere to aggravate global warming.

Ocean life has been hit hard as well due to the dumping of medical wastes from years of the wasting plague. Marine mammals, fish and phytoplankton necessary to replenish earths oxygen supply have all but died off.

Plagues have also dramatically impacted America. The AIDS epidemic of the 1990’s evolved into the AIDS crisis of the early 2000’s. Political infighting stalled researchers from finding a cure leading to the mutation of AIDS to a more lethal form.

Next let’s look at the government. The United states is pretty much a nation in name only. The executive branch is the only effective part of the federal government and it controls the military. It’s governed by a variety of advisors and appointed agency heads. For the last 3 administrations the president has been chosen in a background, since only 12.6% of the US population bothers to vote anymore.

The US government doesn’t really control what happens in the states, but it does control the border with a powerful volunteer military.

This resulted in the America of today: A few large densely packed urban areas, surrounded by ecological wastelands, ghost towns, agricorp farmlands and abandoned suburbs. This has led to the creation of 3 distinct types of urban environments in the Old Cities, Corporate Citites and New Cities.

Old cities are very similar to a late 20th century city.

Old cities have a mix of old and new buildings, factories, and shopping centres.

Corporate cities are cities whose governments and municipalities broke down during the Collapse. Powerful corporations moved in to fill the void and provided police, fire control and medical services.

New cities are very much a mix of old and corporate cities. They are characterized by modern building, urban planning and well laid out-streets. Night city for example was planned as a “model” city but when it’s visionary designer was murdered by organized crime, it rapidly degenerated into an urban nightmare and one of the worst cities in the early 2000’s

Every US city has a combat zone where law enforcement is non existant and gangs and gang warfare take place.

By eurostandards most places in the US have all the modern amenities such as video stations, cell phones, aerodyne vehicles, biosculpt parlours and cyberware. Whatever you can find in Paris, you are likely to find in Night City.

The level of technology in America is monumental. Huge videoboards, monster ad blimp clusters, pedicabs, cyberbikes, and holograms screeching out the latest headlines.

Weather wise, the acid rainfall percentage has been steadily dropping. As more cars are converted onto CHOOH2 and methane, the poison fogs that previously enveloped American cities are now less common.

American cities in 2020 live and die by the gun. An armed society has new rules and in certain parts of many cities there are designated free fire zones where weapons can be freely used to settle disputes.

Cyberpunk 2077 News – Alienware “Leak”, Aesthetic Changes & Game Design Listing!

Video Leave a comment

In today’s Cyberpunk 2077 and Cyberpunk 2077 News video we have a cryptic tweet sent out by CD PROJEKT RED and Cyberpunk 2077 and some clarification and debunking about it, a new game design job listing from CD PROJEKT RED, an Alienware training event and a potential 2077 leak of sorts, some Cyberpunk forum answers including aesthetic and design changes, and some Countdown the the dark future details highlighting a cataclysmic event in the lore of Cyberpunk.

First we have our art section where we highlight some community creations focused on Cyberpunk 2077.

Getting right into today’s News segment we first have an interesting leak via reddit that was later deleted involving Alienware and Cyberpunk 2077. This was initially discussed on our Cyberpunk 2077 community podcast, so thanks to Mad Queen and IvanGT on twitter for some of these developments.

In this deleted reddit thread a verified Alien ware employee created a post titled “attended a training event for my job last night – I have reason to believe Cyberpunk 2077 is coming out this year”. Again this is from a verified used and goes on to say Attended an alienware hardware training event last night and they had promotional material for their new laptop plastered all over the wall – a cyberpunk 2077 edition that was coming later this year but they couldn’t tell us when or what exactly the partnership would entail, and they had not received permission from CPDR to announce it yet. Our trainer implied that they would announce the hardware partnership when CDPR announces a release date – which isn’t too far away.

Next we have Cyberpunk 2077 tweeting “Soon, Soon” early last week with seemingly no context until some clarification later in the thread, where they mention it’s in reference to the opening of their US Merchandise store.

Now I was in the Cyberpunk 2077 discord as people were speculating on this when Lilayah, CD PROJEKT REDs community manager tried to clear some confusion. She mentions that it was supposed to be a reply in the thread and not its own tweet.

Just as an aside to tweets that the Cyberpunk 2077 twitter has made, I’ll also be keeping my eyes out for a potential dev diary or documentary from the CDPR team based off of this tweet saying I hope CDPR and Cyberpunk teams are making a documentary like how Santa Monica studios did with God of War to which they responded with “who knows…”

Next we have a new job listing for a lead game designer for CD PROJEKT RED. This was found by a subscriber of LastKnowMeal’s and highlighted in one of his videos so you can check that out for additional information and more dedicated coverage. In essence this is a listing for a lead game designer who will help guide the team and supervise the design of gameplay systems and online mechanics in CD PROJEKT RED titles. Some of the responsibilities include directing the gameplay design around fun mechanics, reviewing gameplay and balance, and ensuring that the design and gameplay experience are of the highest quality.

Recent leaks are also suggesting a teaser of sorts for the new IP will be dropped at E3 2019, but then the rumor goes on to say it will release in 2022, after CDPR has explicitly said by 2021, and that they are focusing on 2077 for this particular E3, so take it with a grain of salt.

Next we have some official forum answers from again Lilayah CDPR’s community manager. In a thread regarding if ideas pitched within the forum by fans during the developmental process was incorporated Lilayah says that we will leave that for you to find out.

In a question regarding aesthetic and design changes to the game and some concerns that the game will deviate from what the original poster thought was an amazing gameplay reveal aesthetic, Lilayah responds that changes are super common to pretty much every single aspect, which includes art and graphic designs. This hints at some aesthetic changes for likely the better when it comes to 2077.

This comes along with recent news of the game being quite different than before, and some older news from Adam Badowski specifically mentioning that after the release of the 48-minute gameplay reveal that they will still be modifying netrunning, how weapons behave, driving physics, facial expressions and animations, and that what we’ve seen is very much a draft version.

In our final forum question we have a revelation that CDPR will have something exciting when it comes to cosplay in the future so keep your eyes open, your sewing machines ready and your cyberware nearby. This hints at a cyberpunk 2077 cosplay competition of sorts.

Finally, we have some countdown to the dark future episodes regarding an important moment in the world of Night City called The Collapse. This is a series dedicated to understanding RTlasorian Games source material of Cyberpunk 2020 which Cyberpunk 2077 is largely based on.

Cyberpunk 2077 News – Cyberpunk Red & 2077 Timeline, RTalsorian & LARP!

Video Leave a comment

In today’s Cyberpunk 2077 and Cyberpunk news we are talking about a new Cyberpunk Red FAQ which gives us details about the connection between Cyberpunk 2077 and Cyberpunk Red, Some Countdown to the Dark Future episodes highlighting references CDPR has made to 2020 in Cyberpunk 2077, an IGN Article featuring 2077 details, Some Timeline clarification from Mike Pondsmith and an officially sanctioned LARP event for those of you into live action role play and immersive lore experiences.

Starting off the news we have a new IGN Article about Cyberpunk 2077 coming from IGN Brazil which reveals a few more details about the world of Cyberpunk 2077. Although most of the article is a repetition of what we’ve already heard before, there are some interesting facts. Mateus Tomaskiewicz was interviewed for this one, and in a statement made about his work as a mission director for 2077 says

“It is largely a quality control position, but I believe one of the most interesting responsibilities is to review the game frequently and ensure that the missions do not conflict or contradict another in their Implementation” “There are a lot of dependencies between missions, especially on main story missions. We try hard to have missions that intertwine and compliment each other organically”. He later mentions in regards to the world of 2077 that “it’s a dystopian vision of the future, but gives us an opportuntiyy to play with various themes. We can play on serious subjects and show a distorted mirror of our current social problems. On the other hand, you have a myriad of art styles – a mixture of flamboyant advertisements, colorful communities, stylish bodies, insane gangs and so on.”

Next we have a Cyberpunk Red FAQ released and updated by the creators of 2077’s source material RTalsorian games. These are the guys who created the original pen and paper Cyberpunk 2020. As you guys already know Cyberpunk Red will help bridge the gap between the events of Cyberpunk 2020 and 2077.

Does Cyberpunk red take place in the same universe as Cyberpunk 2020 and 2077? Yes. RTalsorian and CD PROJEKT RED have worked together on a common timeline for the original Cyberpunk in Cyberpunk 2013 to Cyberpunk 2020 to Cyberpunk Red to Cyberpunk 2077.

When in the timeline does Cyberpunk Red take place? Cyberpunk Red takes place between the end of the 4th Corporate War (2022) and 2077.

What is Cyberpunk Red’s Relationship to Cyberpunk 2077?
Red will show the Cyberpunk world in a period of rebuilding following the 4th corporate war.

When will Cyberpunk Red be released. We’re aiming for August 1 release but that will change if we aren’t read.

What formats will Cyberpunk Red be available in? It will be in a full color hardcover book and a full color PDF in digital form. They’ve also commissioned new artists and say that the illustrations will be on par with any modern RPG.

Next we have some Countdown to the dark future details from again RTlasorian games. These help tell the story of the Cyberpunk lore and narrative and this week is super important as they are showcasing 2020’s influences in 2077.

In episode 121 we have comparisons from the Cyberpunk 2020 cover to a cyberpunk 2077 wallpaper featuring female V.

In episode 122 we have the Raven Microcyberenetics Spider Microwaldo Bracer from Chromebook 3 of the Cyberpunk 2020 source material.

In episode 123 we look at some potential inspiration for the Samurai Logo by looking at the Pacific Rim sourcebook.

In episode 124 we see the Air hypo from Cyberpunk 2020 and it’s equivalent in Cyberpunk 2077 as we use it to clear the airway for Sandra Dorsett.

episode 125 features how the logo for Silverhand Studios from Chromebook 1, a husing project owned by Silverhand has been reformatted into the cover of a 2077 Silverhand album cover.

In episode 126 we have the comparisons between AV-3 Aerocop from Chromebook 3 to the Police aerodyne from the Cyberpunk 2077 teaser tailer.

In episode 127 we see the verticality of the world being present in 2077 after it’s representation in 2020.

Finally we have some details about an officially sanctioned Live action role play event featuring Cyberpunk and Night City.

Cyberpunk : Night City is a Live action role playing event created by Jackalope studios and in collaboration with RTalsorian Games. The event will take place on memorial day weekend (Which is may 24th and May 25th) and will transform a portion of San Antionio, Texas into the open air market of Carter Street in Night City, California. The Bespoke-style LARP takes place after the end of the 4th corporate war. While not an official part of the timeline, Jackalope has worked with Mike Pondsmith to be as accurate as the format allows. That means that Cyberpunk Night City LARP will provide the first glimpses into the possibilities of the upcoming new edition Cyberpunk Red.

Cyberpunk 2077 News & Guide

Cyberpunk 2077 – Mini Games & Side Activities!

Video Leave a comment

In Today’s Cyberpunk 2077 video we are going to be talking about potential mini games and Side activities that will be available in Night City and in Cyberpunk 2077. Some of these side-quests have more credibility of showing up in 2077 and some will be more of what I think would fit and will be more speculation than anything.

The main attraction of Cyberpunk 2077 will most definetly be the main story and side quests, but I can imagine due to the narrative and heavy nature of the world of Cyberpunk 2077, we will likely need to diffuse with some more mind numbging arcadey mini-games as a break from hunting down corporates and prolific gangs.

First we have the potential for Boxing, MMA fighting and street fights. We’ve talked about this a bunch before, but boxing and MMA seem to be the main sport in night city with it all over the worlds screens, and how often we see people training on these robotic punching bags in the world. Boxing and fist fighting was also in The Witcher 3 as also mentioned before, so this style of melee combat may be something CDPR is comfortable with. This is also something that can weave nicely into the violent world of the Cyberpunk lore.

Next we have Braindance, which could possibly be something much larger than mere side activities, but can also be something to do in the privacy of your own apartment based off our initial viewings. Braindance would open up an infinite amount of psossibilites as Braindance allows you to live out your wildest dreams as a sort of sanctioned hallucinatory experience. Braindance bars and shacks are present in the lore, so maybe we can stop in at one of these to indulge in the myriad of possibilities it offers. Do take note that Braindances seem to be advertised on posters that have a “BD” in one of the corners.

Next we have bar games such as pool and darts. In the Trailer we see an augmented pool table and in a frame by frame series episode it is also mentioned as being retrofitted with technology. I can see a variety of bar games being present as mini-games and competing against NPCs within these. These mini-games would be your standard run of the mill bar activites such as slots and gambling, drinking, smoking and previously mentioned pool and maybe air hockey. There would likely be a high stakes Cyberpunk spin to it, so I hope if they go this route with it. You can bet your eddies or cybernetic enhancements in the hopes of stripping everyone in the bar dry.

I can also see a mini game pitting you against Jackie or other NPCs in who can pick up the most dates or one night stands at these bars.

We also have more traditional sports like Basketball as seen in the trailer, and some of the Cybersports present in the Cyberpunk genre as a whole. Rollerball from Alita seems like it would be a neat option, and obviously all these sports would have athletes with augmnets and cyberware which makes them more physically impressive and the sports themselves could be much more of a bloodbath.

BattleBots or an underground robot fighting league would be my personal addition to the game. If you guys have seen the Netflix series Love Death and Robots first Episode Sonnies Edge or Movies lIke big hero 6 you can kind of extrapolate on these concepets and kind of see what I’m talking about. Drones are a huge element of Night City. being able to use ones to defeat others and collecting their scraps for our crafting ability would be a nice addition.

Ofcourse they could go with the approach of having a card game like Gwent as NEteunner is a similar card game that’s license was not extended, and although CDPR have somewhat denied the prospect of having Netunner specifically, that doesn’t mean they couldn’t have something similar.
