Words by Jose Alvarez

Many games and other media have been made about the future. Blade Runner, Metro, and Cyberpunk are just three examples of what the future might look like. CD Projekt Red, already known for gaming successes such as The Witcher(which has also become a successful TV series), set out to create something even bigger and better. Cyberpunk 2077 has gone through many delays through its eight-year development cycle, but was it worth it?

The game takes place in Night City, which is controlled by corporations. You play as V, a mercenary you can customize to your own liking. You can make the main character male, female, or even non-binary. The character customization is very robust. The player can choose the voice, face, hairstyles, body type, modifications, background, and clothing of their character. Afterward, you can choose to be a nomad, streetkid, or a corpo, which will also give you special dialogue you can use in the game.
