Night City—a world of gangs, megacorporations and cybernetics—is well and truly alive in bedrooms, living rooms and home offices all over the world. Sure, it might have been the subject of a slew of worrying reports chronicling bugs, glitches and performance issues, but that’s hardly going to change things at this point: Cyberpunk 2077 is a shoe-in for the biggest gaming event of the year.
