Gosh, is it a flechette rifle with a specific location? Or is it a rifle with a specific flechette format?

The 4th Corporate War’s over and the big dogs have retreated to their corners to lick their wounds. That leaves everyone else to fend for themselves in a shattered world.

And that’s just fine. ‘cause you’ve got interface plugs in your wrists, metal in your limbs, and chips in your skull. You’re wired in, loaded with chrome, and ready to take it to the Edge.

There’s a world full of opportunities out there. Maybe this time you can do more than save yourself. Maybe.

Cyberpunk Red is the latest edition of the classic roleplaying game of the Dark Future, featuring updated mechanics and new lore from the era between 2020 and 2077.

Q: What is Cyberpunk Red?
A: Cyberpunk Red is a new edition of Cyberpunk, the original tabletop roleplaying game of the Dark Future created by Mike Pondsmith and published by R. Talsorian Games.

Q: What is the Cyberpunk Red Jumpstart Kit?
A: The Cyberpunk Red Jumpstart Kit is a “starter box” introduction to Cyberpunk Red. It will contain essential rules, world lore, pregenerated characters, an adventure, Screamsheets, dice, and more. Everything needed to play right out of the box for people curious about the game and the world.

Q: When will Cyberpunk Red and the Cyberpunk Red Jumpstart Kit be released?
A: The Cyberpunk Red Jumpstart Kit will be released on August 1st at GenCon. It will go on sale at our booth at GenCon and online via DriveThruRPG at the same time. It will be available on our webstore and via retailers as soon as resources allow after GenCon. Cyberpunk Red will most likely be available later in the year.

Q: What system is Cyberpunk Red? Fuzion or Interlock?
A: Cyberpunk Red will use the classic Interlock system, though, as with any new edition of a TRPG, there will be revisions and updates. The Cyberpunk Red Jumpstart Kit will use the same rules, though they will be streamlined because they are part of an introductory set.

Q: Is Cyberpunk Red going to be compatible with Cyberpunk 2020?
A: While there will be changes to the rules, it should not be too difficult to convert Cyberpunk 2020 material to Cyberpunk Red.

Q: Does Cyberpunk Red take place in the same universe as Cyberpunk 2020 and Cyberpunk 2077?
A: Yes. R. Talsorian Games and CD Projekt Red have worked together on a common timeline for the original Cyberpunk (Cyberpunk 2013) to Cyberpunk 2020 to Cyberpunk Red to Cyberpunk 2077.

somehow this thing just manages to look incredibly boring to me. there are instagrammers with more interesting takes on cyberpunk fashion.

that melting face picture is SO COOL

shnozlak · August 21, 2019, 7:40pm

when “pixel sorting” got popular the glitch art-o-sphere got inundated with these face waterfalls.

daphaknee · August 21, 2019, 7:43pm

yeah i loved when all the jpeg artifacting and datamoshing got popular

there was like a year where every music video i saw did it on purpose

gonna take a moment to plug my album cover which I think is the piece of visual art I am the most proud of:

I took that picture in the rain room at LACMA and then pixel sorted it, I just wanted to let everyone know about my hipster bonafides

cylindrome · August 21, 2019, 10:04pm

would be happy for this to just become a general cyberpunk thread with only tangential relation to the videogame

Mr_Mechanical · August 21, 2019, 10:28pm

Bona fides is two words fyi.

Cormac McCarthy says to hell with your two words

Dracko · August 22, 2019, 1:33pm

Go for it.

Please use English here. You’re the only one who understands Latin.

my prediction is that this game will be okay to passable at best, spectacularly uninteresting at worst, and the gamerbros that put these folks on a pedestal are going to be screaming

i think witcher 3 was strong because it played to CDPR’s strengths (and they had made 2 other games using the setting), but even then while the writing/visuals were excellent the rest of the game was solidly average

Lil Nas X is a good fucking popstar

Dracko · December 13, 2019, 4:30pm

Grimes being in this is very onbrand for both parties involved but certainly speaks to what kind of expectations you should have going in.

isfet · December 13, 2019, 5:11pm

ah, well.

maybe i’ll pick it up when it’s on sale for $15 or something eventually.
