You play V, a mercenary navigating Night City's criminal and corporate underworld. After a job leaves a biochip in V's head, V searches for a way to survive while a digital presence shares their mind.
Take on the main story, mercenary jobs, and character-focused side quests, meeting people and making dialogue choices along the way. Explore the city's districts and surrounding Badlands on foot or by vehicle, with optional activities and discoveries off the main route.
This first-person action RPG lets you shape V's approach through skills, weapons, and cyberware. Use guns or blades, sneak past enemies, or hack devices and foes; character progression supports distinct combat builds.
In the supplied reviews, players repeatedly praise Night City's atmosphere and detail, the story and characters, and the freedom to explore or tackle combat in different ways. Side quests and the music also stand out for some reviewers. Others point to lingering bugs, demanding performance, and limits in how interactive the wider world feels.
