Overview
Description

Cyberpunk 2077 is an open-world action-adventure game set in Night City, a sprawling metropolis driven by power, glamour, and body modification. Players assume the role of V, a mercenary outlaw in pursuit of a unique implant that holds the key to immortality, navigating a world where mega-corporations operate above the law. In a gritty future defined by cyberware, violent crime, and extreme poverty, your choices directly influence both the narrative and the world around you. Experience deep role-playing customization of skills, cybernetics, and playstyle as you carve your own legend in the streets of Night City.

Set in 2010 Akihabara, Steins;Gate follows a group of friends who turn a microwave into a device that can send texts to the past. Their experiments attract the attention of the shadowy organization SERN, forcing them to race against time to avoid capture and alter destiny. The game blends science‑fiction intrigue with emotional storytelling, offering branching paths and multiple endings that react to player choices.
