Cyberpunk 2077

Night City: a dense, vertical metropolis where every street corner hides a story. Best on a big screen at night.

01The territory

As V, a mercenary in a city ruled by corporations, you take contracts, drive across districts and the surrounding Badlands, and follow a story about identity and survival.

02Who should travel here

Adults who love dense cities, choices and story-driven side quests.

AA vertical city

Night City is smaller than many open worlds but extremely dense. Buildings, alleys and rooftops reward slow walking more than driving.

BGetting around

Driving is fun, but the metro (added in later updates) is a calm way to see the city between districts.

CToday's version

Years of updates have greatly improved the game. The version you buy now is very different from the 2020 launch.

Worth the trip

  • Superb city design
  • Excellent side quests
  • Strong expansion available

Rough ground

  • PEGI 18 themes
  • Demanding on PC hardware

Surveyor's verdict

The best urban open world for players who love detail and story.
