Cyberpunk 2077 Players Are Just Discovering A Button That Turns Night City’s Lights Off – TheGamer

Posted: July 30, 2024 at 4:05 am

Highlights

Night City is a vast, neon metropolis. It's a city so vast that even three and a half years later, players are discovering its secrets, new and old, for the first time.

Recently, a player ran into an issue with a hostile vending machine flatlining a citizen, and now, players are discovering that there's a button that can turn the lights out across the whole of Cyberpunk 2077's conurbation.

The magic button, which was initially discovered during the early stages of the game but overlooked by millions of newer players, can be inconspicuously found on the side of a road in Westbrook.

The small red button is found on the side of a yellow box. The box has neon writing above it, with messages that rotate between "Turn out the lights, the party's over", "Baby when the lights go out", and "Press me after dark!"

Upon being pressed, the button appears to switch the streetlights out across the whole of Night City. Reddit user Aggressive_Seacock, who re-discovered the secret, said they "drove around a bit, and where I was, it was off everywhere", when questioned if it hit the whole of the city.

It comes as no surprise that, given how wild Cyberpunk 2077's Night City is, none of the citizens react to the fact that there are suddenly no streetlights. Maybe it's because they're used to chaos, or maybe it's because there are so many luminous signs illuminating the streets that, actually, they just didn't notice.

Cyberpunk 2077, which has now been completed with the release of the Phantom Liberty DLC, has a sequel in the works. Developers CD Projekt Red recently shared advice for anybody looking to get into game development, saying that players should "learn how to mod", just like the creator of the recent "Taxi Work in Night City" mod.

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Is Going To Outlive The Game Its Based On – TheGamer

Posted: at 4:05 am

Bandai Namco has just announced that Lucy from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners will be coming to Guilty Gear Strive as part of a future season pass. This is the most surprising crossover in fighting games since Negan came to Tekken 7, and once again proves that if characters are iconic enough, nothing can stop them from securing a spot on a well-fitting roster.

Lucy has an iconic design with her myriad augmentations and gorgeous eyeliner, alongside her white outfit complemented by a fierce black leotard. She is sexy, daring, and would breezily kick your butt in a fight. And half the cast of Guilty Gear Strive's butts too, apparently. Fans were awfully surprised to see her revealed as a playable fighter at EVO 2024, but the more I think about it, the more I see how Lucy belongs, and the more it speaks to how iconic Edgerunners really is.

The Netflix anime from Studio Trigger arrived in September 2022 and was an instant hit. As a part of Cyberpunk 2077s emerging redemption arc, it encouraged thousands to jump into the flawed RPG after seeing the stories of David Martinez and Lucyna Kushinada unfold. It helped that CD Projekt Red took the time to implement new quests, weapons, and amazing easter eggs that directly referenced the prequel series.

What its ensemble cast gets up to is pretty massive in the grand scheme of things, so it makes sense to retrofit their existence in a game that they wouldnt exist without. But looking back, I remember far more about all the stories from Edgerunners than I do 2077, and for good reason.

It used Night City as a foundation for something entirely unique, while simultaneously trying to flesh out the game world and make it feel lived in. 2077 is a great game, but hardly any of the inhabitants you encounter feel like living creatures. They walk in circles only to provide a false illusion of purpose, while Edgerunners is able to show the main and supporting characters trying to make a living in this dystopian world while uncovering small pockets of joy between all the misery.

Its a harrowing watch, but also undeniably heartfelt and beautiful. Thats why we cant help but rewatch it over and over, or get all choked up when we recall what Davids journey was ultimately leading towards. Phantom Liberty would ape David and Lucys wistful desire to leave their planet behind and find a second home on the Moon too, so it must have left an impression. There is a lot of heart in this universe, and Edgerunners understands that.

One look at Twitter or TikTok following the Edgerunners premiere told me all I needed to know about its cultural longevity. Across its ten episodes, it took its time establishing all the motivations and quirks of its characters, ensuring that big plot twists and tragic events would feel like a twisting knife. I fell in love with the ensemble cast only to end up hurt and betrayed when they changed allegiances in pursuit of profits and survival.

Its also testament to the world CD Projekt Red created in its adaptation of the tabletop title, and how satisfying it is to see it become a place of everyday triumph and struggles, where death is an everyday occurence and the main cast fights to survive on the slimmest of margins, just like the rest of the denizens of Night City. But it doesnt stop them from dreaming big, or fighting back against corporate forces capable of obliterating them in seconds.

Edgerunners legacy can be defined by one song - I Really Want To Stay At Your House by Rosa Walton and Hallie Coggins. The melancholic bop plays in the final episode just as Lucy lands on the Moon and lives out Davids lifelong dream following his death. The two have so many conversations about leaving Night City behind and finding purpose elsewhere, so they can live a normal life away from sex, violence, and corruption.

But deep down, they know its impossible, so they develop this eccentric fantasy of leaving the atmosphere in pursuit of a normal existence. Where you can fall in love with someone and go round their place and fall asleep in their arms, knowing that a gun isnt going to be pressed against your head just as you drift off to sleep. Its a song with a message that craves the mundane, something which Edgerunners craves.

Thats a beautiful thing, and a defining message I will remember years from now even as the show fades from memory. But as you can probably tell, theres no chance of that happening.

Developed by CD Projekt Red, Cyberpunk 2077 is a first-person action role-playing game based on the Cyberpunk tabletop RPG. You must choose your path through life in the lawless Night City, while contending with the memories of Johnny Silverhand (Keanu Reeves).

Guilty Gear Strive’s producer hints at further Cyberpunk: Edgerunners charactersor a continuation of Lucy’s story from the animebefore clamming up to…

Posted: at 4:05 am

Guilty Gear Strive somewhat-surprised fans late last week when it announced its first crossover character, Lucy from the excellent anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, a show based on CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 (and, consequently, the OG Cyberpunk TTRPG).

I say "somewhat", because crossover characters (or 'guest' fighters) aren't at all uncommon in fighting gamesthey're practically tradition. However, Guilty Gear Strive came out in 2021making it three years without so much as a multiversal cough in its direction, so the sudden debut of Lucy was at least enough to raise my eyebrows and make me say 'huh, neat!'

In an interview with IGN, though, producer Ken Miyauchi has hinted that there may very well be more guest fighters coming: "We've been doing this work since 2023, actually. And we've been talking to CD PROJEKT RED because our lead artist, Hidehiko Sakamura, is actually a big fan of The Witcher series."

Miyauchi then reveals that the conversation drifted from The Witcher to Cyberpunk (reasonable, since I think Lucy jacks into Strive's post-sci fi mythology better). She is however, as the interviewer notes, an interesting pick for a crossover: Sandevistan savant David Martinez is the series' leading man.

"I cannot talk much about why [we chose Lucy], because that might spoil what we are trying to do. But there is a reason we decided Lucy. Of course, I personally wanted to see David with Sandevistan, but yeah, so I can't talk about it right now, but I hope people will figure [it] out in the future."

That seems like a pretty clear-cut moment of 'ah, I've said too much'not being able to talk about Lucy's selection because it might spoil something does imply that something else is in the works, even if it's not necessarily another Edgerunners character.

However, Miyauchi could simply be hinting at Lucy's in-game justification for blaming the beasts since, and I'm about to spoil Cyberpunk: Edgerunners here, she's one of the few surviving members of the original cast. David is donezo, as are most fan-favourite choices that'd be first in line for a guest appearance.

Keep up to date with the most important stories and the best deals, as picked by the PC Gamer team.

Either way, the care with which Miyauchi handles the topic is confirmation that something's going on. Strive's continued relevance, either way, adds more fuel to the rip-roaring success that is the fighting game scene this year, according to our own button-mashing aficionado and features producer Mollie Taylor.

Hilary Swank’s Most Underrated Role Is in This Bold Netflix Cyberpunk Thriller – Collider

Posted: at 4:05 am

The Big Picture

The further into the 21st century we get, the more common topical plot lines involving sentient artificial intelligence will become. Filmmakers must bring something unique to the screen to stand out from the pack. Fortunately for director Grant Sputore, he has a unique story to tell in 2019's I Am Mother and a fantastic cast of talented actors to tell it. Currently available on Netflix, the futuristic, dystopian science fiction thriller film stars Hilary Swank, Clara Rugaard, and the voice talent of Rose Byrne as "Mother." When a near-extinction level event almost eliminates humanity, Daughter (Rugaard) is safe in a hidden bunker and raised by a "Mother," a highly sophisticated AI being that has reared her since birth. When Swank's character, credited simply as "Woman," arrives on the scene, the perfect ecosystem established between Mother and Daughter is turned on its head, and Daughter is challenged to make some tough decisions for the first time. But it'sSwank who shines in the role of a mysterious drifter, using the deliberate pacing of the film to her advantage to heighten the carefully designed tension.

It has been approximately five years since almost all of humankind was wiped out after an extinction event. A sentient, robotic AI race is in the process of terraforming Earth to be repopulated by humans raised and taught by units known as "Mothers." We are introduced to the Daughter as a young girl going through her daily life under the care and tutelage of her AI Mother. She is in a sleek, futuristic bunker facility, and the dynamic between Daughter and Mother is very simple. When Woman (Swank) shows up pounding on the bunker door pleading for help with a severe injury, Daughter is reticent about allowing her in but does it anyway. Now a teenager, Daughter is naturally curious about the mercurial stranger, as her life up to this point has been a daily regimen of study and little else. Seeing another human being piques her interest in what is happening outside the bunker, and she begins to challenge the AI Mother, wanting to know more about the plight of humanity. Until the Woman arrives, the robot has been neutral and friendly in her programming, but as her authority is challenged more and more by Daughter and the Woman, a more sinister side of the AI Mother will present itself. It is far creepier with the soft and smooth dulcet of Rose Byrne voicing Mother.

The way Swank dazzles as Woman in I Am Mother, the question needs to be asked: Why hasn't she done more science fiction films? The two-time Oscar winner for Best Actress has proven her dramatic bona fides with unforgettable turns in movies like Boys Don't Cry, Million Dollar Baby, and the underseen and underappreciated Ordinary Angels. So why is there a shortage in the "little green men" genre in her extensive filmography? Whatever the case, her inimitable style and patience as a performer are on full display in I Am Mother and translate seamlessly. The first act of I Am Mother is a slow burn, but after a desperate and dying Swank arrives at the facility, she is masterful at letting the story come to her. She is tight-lipped and confused but also doesn't want to reveal too much about herself or where she comes from because, unlike Daughter, she has been living in the outside world and knows what this race of robots is capable of. Her lack of dialogue means she has to be even more expressive in her facial movements and mannerisms to communicate her emotions effectively. But by the time the movie's final act arrives, Swank also shows the physicality and badassery we have grown accustomed to seeing from her in her best turns on the big screen.

Sometimes, working with child actors can make it difficult to establish a solid rapport. That is not the case with Swank and Rugaard in I Am Mother. From the moment the Woman arrives at the bunker, she and her Daughter play off each other craftily. Credit the young Rugaard, who shows she is a special talent. Both actors have an Ellen Ripley-esque quality to them. Still, Swank's work allows the pair to establish such a believable and compelling dynamic. She takes the lead and deftly steers the relationship as a veteran performer, as she should. By the time they learn to trust one another and work in unison to escape the facility and extreme control of the sentient Mother robot, Swank is firmly in control of the film, bringing the humanity and beating heart of the story to life, even as they are scrapping tooth and nail to survive a droid that is intent on maintaining its deceptive directive of retaining authority over the Daughter, Woman, and her harvested group of hundreds of human embryos. As the Woman, Swank is very convincing in making the Daughter believe that she would be safer with her own kind back in the abandoned mines where she came from. However, the question burning throughout I Am Mother is whether Daughter can trust either of these maternal figures.

Hilary Swank is always at her best when she plays a character you want to root for and see succeed, like in her Academy Award-winning roles as a prizefighter and non-binary individual. I Am Mother is a little more nuanced in its layered plot and character development, but as the Woman, it is still a role that you can get the pom poms out and enjoy. Director Grant Sputore establishes the Mother's ability to be duplicitous and evil early in the film. Still, the extreme lengths she will go to in the end to secure her directive delivers a twist you couldn't possibly see coming. If the Woman turned out to be the biological mother of the Daughter, that would have been one hell of a curveball. Still, the surprise that is saved for the film's penultimate scene and Swank's character at the beach is nonetheless a lovely trick Sputore deftly delivers based on the story he wrote and adapted for the big screen.

I Am Mother is available to stream on Netflix in the U.S.
