Cyberpunk 2077 was released for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Google Stadia in December 2020 and is based on Mike Pondsmith and R. Talsorian Games’ Cyberpunk tabletop RPG. The game follows V, a player-created character in Night City who is left for dead after a failed heist and becomes entwined with the legendary figure Johnny Silverhand.
