Cyberpunk RED Summary
The fourth edition of Cyberpunk, titled Cyberpunk Red, is set in 2045, following the events of Cyberpunk 2020 and serving as a prequel to the Cyberpunk 2077 video game. The game is set after a fourth Corporate War; however, the events differ from Cyberpunk V3.0, which is considered a separate timeline.

Cyberpunk RED Review
The 4th Corporate War is over and the big dogs have retreated to their corners to lick their wounds. That leaves everyone else to their fate in a shattered world. And that’s okay. Because you have interface connectors on your wrists, metal on your limbs, and chips on your skull. You’re plugged in, loaded with chrome, and ready to take to the Edge. There is a world full of opportunities out there. Maybe this time you can do more than save yourself. Maybe.
Cyberpunk Red is the latest edition of the classic Cyberpunk tabletop role-playing game. This basic rulebook is everything you need to play. Each character role has a unique and expansive special ability and the Lifepath system means that each player character has their own unique and developed background. Combat is forever, with deadly firearms and melee weapons, powerful martial arts, and a visceral critical injury system. Cyberpunk Red is compatible with a variety of accessories, including miniatures and dice. All content is canon with the original Cyberpunk 2020 and CD Projekt Red’s highly anticipated video game Cyberpunk 2077.
