Since the celebration of 5 years of Cyberpunk 2077the license is in better shape than ever between the Netflix anime Cyberpunk: EdgerunnersVR projects and even a future collectible card game. Next step in this official expansion signed CD PROJEKT RED : a new board game that focuses on nervous cooperation rather than the big undrinkable box.
Baptized Cyberpunk: Edgerunners – Huntedthis cooperative board game promises to revive the animated series in 25 minutes flat, with Night City in a modular board and the entire David crew playable. A timely announcement for fans lacking official content before season 2 of the anime and future Cyberpunk video games.
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners – Hunted: why does this new official board game excite fans so much?
hunted is developed by the Montreal publisher No Loading Gamesalready responsible for the physical version of Gwentand by the German duo APEX Ideas (Andreas and Martina Dobrindt-Ostner). We are therefore on a real licensed project, designed hand in hand with CD PROJEKT RED to stay true to the anime and video game.
The positioning is clear: cooperative “fast gaming”, easy to release and explain. 25-minute games, 1 to 4 players, three tutorial scenarios to get started, adjustable difficulty and high replayability thanks to the modular board Night City. Something to talk about as much to fans of the anime as to groups who want a tense but accessible co-op.
How does Cyberpunk: Edgerunners – Hunted, the real-time Cyberpunk board game, play?
Each part uses the four heroes of the series, David, Lucy, Rebecca and Maineeach with its own capabilities and cyberware. The city is represented by tiles that are revealed gradually, like an urban labyrinth. A Mission card imposes objectives, then an extraction tile appears: it must be reached before the end of the hourglass.
As the publisher summarizes on the official website: “Cyberpunk: Edgerunners – Hunted is a TIMER-BASED BOARD GAME where players take on the role of EDGERUNNERS trying to escape while being pursued by the Maelstrom gang, the NCPD and the notorious Adam Smasher.
It can be played solo or with up to four players COLLABORATIVELY. This game emphasizes coordination, quick decision-making and survival under pressure. Players must EXPLORE Night City, FIGHT enemies, and COMPLETE missions before finding escape. During the Edgerunners’ turn, players act in any order, performing actions and moving around the map. During the enemies phase, enemies relentlessly pursue and attack players.
Successfully collect gigs and REACH THE EXTRACTION POINT before the timer runs out to achieve victory in this thrilling race against time.”
Add to that the rise of threats, the management of Street Cred and implants, and we get an adaptation that clearly seeks to be “unmistakably Edgerunners” on the tabletop.
