- Bullet Time: Enabled by the Sandevistan implant.
- Crapsack World: Night City has a lot of crime and societal problems.
- Cyberpunk: It's in the name.
- Cyborg: Common in the setting. Some characters have more cybernetic augmentations than others.
- Education Mama: Gloria undertakes dangerous work to get David into Arasaka Academy. He does get good grades, but he doesn’t fit in with his wealthy classmates.
