The crowdfunding campaign for the official Cyberpunk 2077 board game has been an overwhelming success, surpassing its initial goal of $100,000 in just over 10 minutes and accumulating over $1 million from more than 6,300 backers. Developed by CD Projekt and Go On Board, the game incorporates beloved characters from Cyberpunk 2077, allowing 1–4 players to navigate a new narrative through 13 missions based on altered events from the video game. The campaign, hosted on Gamefound, has also hit numerous stretch goals, unlocking additional content like weapons, miniatures, and extra gameplay modes, with two available editions—standard and deluxe—priced at $79 and $139 respectively. This enthusiastic reception illustrates the strong demand for tabletop adaptations of popular video games.

The Cyberpunk 2077 board game offers cooperative, story-driven tactical gameplay, featuring key characters from the video game such as V, Judy, Panam, and Jackie.

Cyberpunk 2077, first released in December 2020, is a highly anticipated action RPG set in the dystopian Night City. Players assume the role of V, a mercenary navigating a world filled with corporate espionage, cybernetic enhancements, and gang warfare. The game has seen a resurgence in popularity following updates and expansions, solidifying its place in gaming culture and paving the way for innovative adaptations like this new board game.
