Cyberpunk 2077's Tabletop Roots Revealed

While Cyberpunk 2077 is a top-selling video game, it was inspired by the Cyberpunk RPG created by Mike Pondsmith and published by R. Talsorian Games. Night City and many of the characters from the video game first appeared in various Cyberpunk products, which have been published by R. Talsorian Games since 1988. Pondsmith has since updated Cyberpunk three times, updating the world and jumping forward in the timeline via new editions. Pondsmith's R Talesorian Games currently publishes Cyberpunk Red, which is set approximately 22 years prior to Cyberpunk 2077 but uses the same continuity. In a recent interview, Pondsmith noted that his company is in charge of maintaining the Cyberpunk timeline up to the the in-universe year of 2060, with CD Projekt Red in charge of events afterwords. However, Pondsmith did serve as a consultant for Cyberpunk 2077 and collaborates with CD Projekt Rd on making future DLC for the popular video game. R. Talsorian Games has said they plan to publish more Cyberpunk 2077-related material in the future.
