Cyberpunk Guía y cronología

In Cyberpunk's dark future, corporations wield enormous power and a person's body can be another piece of technology to buy or replace. Stories of mercenaries, ambition and survival develop across Mike Pondsmith's tabletop setting, the games and Edgerunners. Their shared history gives the changing world consequences beyond a single protagonist.

Phantom Liberty overlaps the base game. Edgerunners 2 takes place in 2078. The free Update 2.5 adds Clampdown, a Cyberpunk 2077 quest that takes place before the second anime.

Overview & recommendation

Night City's shared history supports several ways into the world. Tabletop books establish eras and tools for play, while the anime and video game follow particular lives inside that setting.

Reading every earlier edition is not needed to understand V's immediate situation. The important game-specific distinction is Phantom Liberty: it develops an adventure within the base game's context, not a universal future after any ending you choose.

No Coincidence offers a standalone prose story in Night City. The comics follow other residents and crews.

Play 2077 and Phantom Liberty together. No Coincidence is a standalone starting point for readers. Find the animated short Let You Down and the MADNESS manga under the first Edgerunners anime.

A shared world across different forms of play and story Tabletop eras, V's adventure and animation

The tabletop eras, 2077, the Edgerunners stories and their tie-in fiction use the shared Cyberpunk setting. The developing live-action film has its own provisional route until its screen continuity is established.

  • Shared Canon (24 entries)

    The common Cyberpunk setting across tabletop eras, 2077 and animation. Rulebooks, complete stories and Phantom Liberty's overlapping expansion have different scopes; future placements remain qualified.

  • Live-action Film (1 entry)

    The Paramount Pictures film in development tells a new Cyberpunk story. Its precise relationship to the represented game and animation stories is unconfirmed.
