About this topic
Released by CD Projekt Red, Cyberpunk 2077 is an open-world role-playing game set in Night City, a sprawling metropolis shaped by powerful corporations, cybernetic enhancements and stark social divisions. Players take the role of V, a mercenary navigating the city’s competing interests and dangers. Its setting and themes give a film adaptation a broad canvas, while also presenting the challenge of translating a player-directed story into a focused narrative for moviegoers. The game has also expanded into other media, including the animated series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.
