Cyberpunk 2077 has been one of the most anticipated and discussed video games of recent years. The ambitious project born in the CD Project RED studios has generated a real media phenomenon that has brought back attention and interest to the cyberpunk universe, giving way to other projects such as the anime series Cyberpunk: Edgerunner.
