Description

Cyberpunk 2077: Gangs of Night City is a big box strategy game with miniatures in which gangs fight for control of a city, with the city also being a living part of the game.

1 to 4 players take on the role of ruthless gangs vying for control of the underground in the glittering hellhole that is Night City. Clash with other Gangs in the meat or on the Net, as your enterprising band of toughs seeks to gain dominance over the criminal underworld that rules the streets. Only the boldest will be remembered, and your Street Cred will pave your way to the top.

In Single Player mode, you are pitted against an opposing Gang and an Edgerunner (Johnny or either V's) in a free-for-all for Night City. Similar to the multiplayer mode, the faction with the most Street Cred wins.

In the game, players assume the role of a gang leader, with you organizing your gang members to take power in the city. Your actions affect not only your game and your opponents but the city itself. Each gang has different attributes and goals, giving each player a different gaming experience.

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
  • Action combat — Third-person kind of action combat.
  • Character creation
  • Computer Role-Playing Game
  • Hacking/Cyber Skills — System of hacking where you have cyber skills really, and like you can turn on a microwave and draw the enemies over near to it through by taking view up in a security camera. And then when they get near the microwave, you can have explode these explodable canisters.
  • Mission-based gameplay — I love the missions and the combat.
  • Stealth — Leaned away from the melee stuff with swords and clubs and bats and stuff like that, and gone instead to stealth character with, you know, sniping people.

Quotes (from this video)
  • This month I think has a very interesting collection of games, one of which will probably surprise people as it's not something I generally have talked about on the channel.
  • I said I'm going to play for like an hour. Next thing I know, it's 4:00 in the morning.
  • But the gameplay is amazing.
  • So, this game captures, I think, casualties in combat in such a unique and just immersive way that I've not seen in many other games.
  • So, as much fun as I've had with Cyberpunk 2020 2077, and again, I've stepped away from it. I've like, 'Okay, I've gone I've shut myself off for it for a while until I can control myself.
  • So, game of the month for June 2026, Wilderness 1864.
