{{Needs More Tropes}}
* [[A.I. Is a Crapshoot]]: Rache Bartmoss's attempt to take down the corps with the R.A.B.I.D.S. virus had the side effect of causing many AIs to be unshackled and go rogue.
* [[Brain Uploading]]: The Soulkiller can read a brain and convert it into an engram. Originally intended by Alt Cunningham to preserve the dying, Arasaka stole it and used the fact that early versions killed the target in the process as a weapon. However, if the target has already been dead for a while, the resulting engram is flawed, as seen with {{spoiler|Jackie}}.
* [[Canon Discontinuity]]: ''V3.0'' was decanonised in response to extensive fan backlash over many changes, including the use of action figure photography instead of drawn artwork.
* [[The City Narrows]]: Night City is already a standout [[Wretched Hive]] even by the standards of this [[Crapsack World]]. The Pacifica district's Dogtown is somehow even worse, being controlled by a [[Dangerous Deserter]]'s gang and something that the cops and corps want nothing to do with.
* [[Combat Medic]]: Trauma Team will fly to the rescue of subscribers in armed aircraft and carry armed security specialists to protect the EMTs.
* [[Divided States of America]]: Several Free States seceded from the old USA and are still resisting unification with the New United States.
