From video game to board game, CD Projekt RED together with board game developer Go On Board have announced the launch of a crowdfunding campaign for Cyberpunk 2077 – The Board Game. This project has now officially gone live on Gamefound, a platform which is focused more towards gaming projects.
Cyberpunk 2077 – The Board Game is pitched a cooperative, story-driven tactical action game designed for 1–4 players. It features a “what if?” scenario that alters a significant event from the original video game, unfolding into a new narrative told through 13 different missions. The game aims to capture the essence of the video game, offering players the opportunity to engage in it with key characters such as V, Judy, Panam, and Jackie.
The Gamefound campaign, which amassed over 60,000 followers prior to its official launch, includes special perks for early backers. Those who support the campaign on its first day will receive an alternate version miniature of V equipped with mantis blades. Additionally, a stretch goal has already been released, which unlocks a Johnny Silverhand miniature and an additional game mode.
Scheduled for release in December 2025, Cyberpunk 2077 – The Board Game will be available in several language versions. As a unique quirk of the game, it incorporates a time pressure mechanic designed to emulate the fast-paced, high-stakes environment of Night City, offering players action sequences and over 50 Street Stories to ensure varied gameplay experiences. There will also be an Afterlife Mission Generator, which is set to offer “high replayability with dozens of single missions for players to create”.
As of writing, Cyberpunk 2077 – The Board Game has achieved $256,572 USD of its original $100,000 USD goal, meaning the campaign has succeeded. There are two pleases available – a $79 USD ‘Standard Edition’ and a $139 USD ‘Deluxe Edition’, the latter offering thick paperboard components and a range of plastic components. A breakdown of the contents of each can be found on the game’s crowdfunding page. Additional merchandise such as a poster, plushie V, thermal mug and more are also available to boost your pledge.
