'''''Cyberpunk 2077''''' is a [[Role-Playing Game]] developed by CD Projekt Red and based off of the [[Cyberpunk (role-playing game)|Cyberpunk RPG]] by Mike Pondsmith. Released turbulently in 2020 after years of hype, a number of patches have since improved the game. A major [[Downloadable Content|DLC]], ''Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty'' was released in 2023.

When a heist to steal an experimental biochip from the Arasaka Corporation [[Gone Horribly Wrong|Goes Horribly Wrong]], he/she awakens with the [[Virtual Ghost]] of infamous Rockerboy Johnny Silverhand ([[Keanu Reeves]]) in his head, and must hurry to get to the bottom of things [[Your Days Are Numbered|before time runs out.]]
