A new Cyberpunk 2077 game brings Night City Gangs to the tabletop in Cyberpunk 2077: Gangs of Night City — The Board Game. Tabletop versions of popular video games are becoming more and more common these days. A notable example is Resident Evil: The Board Game, which launched on Kickstarter in October of last year, just in time for Resident Evil's 25th anniversary. Within hours, the campaign gained enough backers to be fully funded. Now Cyberpunk 2077: Gangs of Night City — The Board Game has followed suit, with tabletop publisher CMON teaming up with CD Projekt Red to launch a Kickstarter campaign for the new tabletop RPG.
Night City and the various gangs that run it are a major feature of the CyberPunk 2077 world. In the 2020 video game, the player must navigate through the decrepit Night City, which is crawling with feuding gangs. Throughout the game, the player interacts with Cyberpunk 2077's various gangs as V travels through a gang's territory or loots their main hideout for money and street cred. Each group looks and operates differently from its rivals, adding depth to Cyberpunk 2077's Night City setting and overall plot. A new tabletop game focuses on these gangs vying for power in Night City.
