Ok_Attempt Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 With CD Projekt Red's "Cyberpunk 2077" being so heavily anticipated, are there any other great cyberpunk games I could play while I wait? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katri Marcell Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Hmmm, that's a great question but a tough one. I've been recently searching for such games and the best I've played in that theme is The Observer. I loved that game and its narrative and art style so I hope you'll like that too. If you want something more "known" then you should go and play the whole Deus Ex franchise. This is by far the best cyberpunk franchise. If I had to choose though. I'd put observer above Deus Ex just by how well it depicts the cyberpunk world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyxx Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) The Deus Ex series is a great and obvious choice but here are some games I would recommend if you're into cyberpunk: Shadowrun Returns (also check out Shadowrun Hong Kong and Chronicles) These games are based on the Shadowrun tabletop game, which combines cyberpunk with fantasy, which means you also have access to magic and magic races. It's a fairly unique world and one I've gotten very fascinated by personally. System Shock 1 & 2 These games predate Deus Ex, but were huge inspirations for it. Definitely worth giving a look. Syndicate Specifically the 2012 remake. A really underrated FPS by the same people who went on to make the new Wolfenstein games. The original is also worth checking out but is in a very different genre altogether and I find the remake more fun to play personally. Has a VERY good multiplayer suite that sadly doesn't have many players nowadays. Think Deus Ex, except a bit more action focused. Project Snowblind It was originally going to be a Deus Ex game but became something else. It's more of a straight up shooter but it has some neat cyberpunk elements such as augmentations. Perfect Dark The spiritual sequel to GoldenEye, using the same engine. One of the most technically impressive N64 games ever. Very dystopian future with plenty of cyberpunk influences. Hard Reset A shooter with a very strong cyberpunk aesthetic, reminiscent of Blade Runner to a large degree. Extremely recommended!

DylanC Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Deus Ex and Syndicate are the two that come to mind for me, definitely. Loved Syndicate in particular back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality vs Adventure Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 I love Watch Dogs Legion. I haven't played many games in this category but would like to know what is all out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he can go a month without playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin11 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 What if cyberpunk 2077 developers decided to cut their video game's price low like halving it, wouldn't you go for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, it would have been a major steal for you to get the game Deus Ex Mankind Divided and the game was worth every penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yaramaki Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 (edited) VA-11 Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action comes to mind, If you like point and click/adventure games you should check it out, it's not every day you get to play as a bartender in the near future.

This looks interesting. Maybe I should look into getting that and see how I'm going to adjust to playing it for starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
