Dystopian fiction continues to feel worryingly relevant, let's play some cyberpunk games.
On a holographic billboard a Japanese lady sips the new Spicy Metaverse flavor of Mountain Dew and turns to smile, before abruptly glitching out to be replaced by anticorporate agitprop. In the street below a hardboiled detective sighs over a corpse with a grossly distorted head, the latest victim of the Funko Pop Killer, while above a drone repeatedly blares,"Cyberpunk is a sci-fi subgenre born in the 1980s that's started to feel distressingly relevant over the last few years.
In videogames, the recent boom of interest in the genre had Cyberpunk 2077 as a mascot—at least, until its underwhelming release. Even ignoring the bugs, Cyberpunk 2077 turned out to be a narratively unambitious game full of foreshadowing that led nowhere, storylines that fizzled out, and a race-against-time plot in conflict with its open world structure.
Luckily for us, there are alternatives both old and new that explore what cyberpunk has been, and what it could mean for our era. From the classics of the 1990s and early 2000s through to the revivalism of the late 2010s onward—and the handful that kept hope alive during the dark times in-between—there's a wealth of cyberpunk games more interesting than Cyberpunk 2077 out there. Here are the best of them.
