New official Gang Logo images, A Cyberpunk 2077 PC modding contest, some hints into seeing the Bozos, an insane clown gang in 2077, CDPR setting a new record, Gang logos & more all in today’s Cyberpunk 2077 news video!
First up let’s jump into the new PC modding contest announced by CDPR yesterday morning. This is a contest where you can design the Cyberpunk 2077 PC case of your dreams, and five professional case modding teams will make the best entries come to life.
Megacorporation logo, and on the main contest page, CDPR has attached these assets. We get to see updated looks at the logos of the gangs we have already seen, and some that we haven’t as of yet.
First up we have the logos for a new gang we haven’t seen yet called “6th street”, we have the muscled up juiceheads from Pacifica, the Animals, we have the body mod obsessed Maelstrom from Watson, we have the Moxes, which seem to sport the Lizzy Wizzy logo and might be related to The Lizzies somehow, we have the Arasaka backed Tyger Claws, from Japantown, The womanizing seduction specialists the Valentinos, and the Haitian hacker-extraordinares the Voodooboys from the Pacifica district.
These are all fantastic and I cannot wait to see some of these new gangs in game. Keep in mind these are only the main gangs, and there will be sub gangs and factions prowling night city as well.
Now speaking of Gangs, as you guys know RTalsorian the company who has licensed the Cyberpunk IP to CDPR, has been making a lot of Cyberpunk Red miniatures as of late in collaboration with monster fight club. Cyberpunk Red is a tabletop primer to 2077, and so it gives us a ton of hints about whats to come in Cyberpunk 2077.
The Bozos a killer clown gang from the lore, seems to be one of the most requested gangs in 2077, and here we see a couple miniatures from the Cyberpunk Red series which leads me to believe we will see these in the video game adaptation. First we have this more traditional penny-wise looking clown, and this augmented really colorful clown with what seems to be a squirtgun. Yes squirtguns are also in the lore, and they are typically filled with drugs, so I’d imagine this will go nicely with the Mr Studd augment for those who want to mess around and make their playthroughs a little more meme-friendly.
Moving on, check out this Cyberpunk soundtrack snippet featuring Mr Rubin who I believe was or still is the drummer for Nine Inch Nails. If this is any indication of the more punky, rock tracks in 2077 I’ll be pretty pleased.
Next up, check out some of this dedication to what seemed to be a leak of what is essentially Cyberpunk 2077’s Disneyland equivalent being built in Poland to support the game and CDPR. NightCityLife, german fan-site for Cyberpunk painstakingly set up this incredibly elaborate April Fools prank.
This fabricated leak featured tentative plans for CD PROJEKT to open a Cyberpunk 2077 nightclub in Warsaw which included a game café, a disco bar and a shopping arcade.
There were concept art pictures drafted up and a ton of promotional images and supposed evidence on socials that were absolutely amazing. Just look at this concept art, and some of these drink label designs. This was all called the Red Diamond, with the Game café modelling a netrunner themed coffeeshop, The Atlantis bar and disco, and merch via vendors in a remodeled section of Night City. There were a ton of people in on this, and I got to say, It was very convincing. Although, I’m not sure how popular a bar and disco would be amongst the gamer demographic, which kind of put a pin in this for me personally.
Incredibly well-done April Fools nonetheless, but let me know if you guys would enjoy something like this in the real world or even elements of this prank in the game. SOulkiller polish craft eer and blackhand whiskey sounds pretty awesome to me.
