Night City, 2077

Neon pressure, Mercenary survival

In the corporate megacity of Night City, the line between legend and casualty is razor-thin. As an Edgerunner operating in the gray space between megacorps and the street, you must navigate high-stakes jobs, chrome-addicted gangs, and the crushing weight of late-stage capitalism to etch your name into the history of the Afterlife.

World premise

A playable world seed with consequences.

Night City in 2077 is a sprawling monument to corporate greed and human resilience, where the sky is the color of a dead channel and the neon never truly goes out. You are an Edgerunner, a mercenary living in the jagged gaps between the monolithic power of Arasaka and the brutal territorialism of the street gangs. The opening weeks find you in a cramped studio unit within the concrete honeycomb of Megabuilding H10, facing the immediate reality of dwindling Eddies, glitching cyberware, and the constant pressure to find a gig before the landlord's automated system locks your door. Here, survival is a prerequisite for legend, and every day is a delicate calculation of risk, reputation, and the cost of staying human in a city designed to consume you.

Rent for your unit in Megabuilding H10 is overdue, and the sub-grid power is flickering.

A local contact mentions a fixer named Wakako is looking for someone to handle a 'discreet' transport across the North Oak border.

Your neural link has been throwing minor errors, but a specialized ripperdoc visit requires more Eddies than you currently have.

Tensions between the Valentinos and the 6th Street gang are making the usual supply routes through Heywood dangerous.
