What is Cyberpunk?
Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.
Cyberpunk characteristics include:
- Dystopian city setting where mega-corporations rule
- Full integration of technology into society, featuring cybernetic implants
- Outsider protagonists (punks) who often are very familiar with the technology around them
- Hard boiled detective and film noir vibes and influence
- Themes dabbling in trans-humanism, existentialism, and what it means to be human.

I had such a great time with The Ascent and the expansion. They really nailed the cyberpunk world building, lore, and aesthetic. I have high hopes for this one.
Totally agree. I was shocked to learn The Accent was an original IP. The world bullring and lore were so fleshed out I had just assumed it was based on some TTRPG I hadn't heard of. The gameplay was good but the world was amazing.
Kinda looks like a mix of CP2077 and Dying Light.
Maybe cyberpunk shouldn't be abbreviated...
Did i mishear, or was there a line in the trailer "the mayor stepped in where the government couldn't"? Does mayor mean something else other than "the person in charge if the city government"?
Like that line is nonsense to me but trying to figure out if im missing something here...
It’s a little nonsense, but “the mayor” could be some title that a mob boss or whatever chose for himself, like some kind of spiderman-esque kingpin guy.
Some real “Look at me, I’m da mayor now.” energy after the actual government failed.
I couldn't find any gameplay video
This was the first reveal trailer, I think the game was only just now announced.
