Cyberpunk TCG Has Broken a Kickstarter Record

Cyberpunk TCG Has Broken a Kickstarter Record

The Kickstarter campaign for the Cyberpunk Trading Card Game has officially come to a close with nearly $27 million raised. This makes the upcoming Cyberpunk game the most successful TCG project in Kickstarter’s history by a massive margin.

The project itself was unveiled in mid-March 2026 by WeirdCo, a Seattle-based company “founded for the deep human connection that TCGs create,” according to its website. The crowdfunding campaign went live alongside the announcement, with Cyberpunk TCG surpassing its $100,000 target on Kickstarter in mere minutes.

Cyberpunk 2077: Ronin is Coming in April 2026

Fans of Cyberpunk 2077 find a brand-new way to celebrate the neon-soaked atmosphere of Night City with a physical release this April.

Cyberpunk TCG Breaks Kickstarter’s TCG Crowdfunding Record by Over $11 Million

The campaign officially ended on April 17, at 7 p.m. ET, raising exactly $26,953,978, thus exceeding its crowdfunding target nearly 27 times over. Weeks before that happened, Cyberpunk TCG already became Kickstarter’s most successful project in the trading card game sphere, when it dethroned Cosmere RPG on April 1. The TCG based on Brandon Sanderson’s fantasy universe previously raised $15.15 million over a four-week period ending August 2024. Cosmere RPG reached that total with more than 55,000 backers, while WeirdCo’s Cyberpunk project reported 47,676 backers.

Everyone who backed the Cyberpunk TCG Kickstarter is guaranteed to receive all the cards and other optional add-ons that they ordered, because the campaign items will be printed on demand. WeirdCo has also made the same guaranteed allocation pledge for all pre-orders placed through licensed distributors by May 1, 2026. On a related note, the company is still accepting sign-ups for its retailer program through its official website, weirdco.net. Some Cyberpunk TCG cards from the higher backer tiers are listed as exclusive to the crowdfunding effort, though the majority of them are expected to eventually make their way to retail. Those who qualified for express shipping by pledging $375 or more will start receiving their orders in the third quarter of 2026. The second fulfillment wave is planned for Q4 2026.

More Cyberpunk Games Are Coming in 2026

WeirdCo’s TCG is not the only addition to the Cyberpunk universe that is due to arrive in 2026. Back in March, CD Projekt Red also unveiled Cyberpunk 2077: Chrome Rush, a twin arcade cabinet with two replicas of the Yaiba Kusanagi CT-3X motorcycles from its hit game. The bikes serve as both seats and controllers for a vehicular combat game in the vein of EA’s Road Rash series, which also possibly inspired the cabinet’s name. Developed in partnership with China-based arcade company UNIS Technology, Cyberpunk 2077: Chrome Rush is currently scheduled to start shipping in May 2026. CDPR has not publicly disclosed its price.

Cyberpunk 2077:
How Well Do You Know Night City?

👻Phantom LibertyDogtown

01

In Cyberpunk 2077, the player character V gets entangled with an experimental biochip that contains the digital consciousness of a legendary rockerboy-turned-terrorist. Who is this iconic character, played by Keanu Reeves?




✓ Correct! Johnny Silverhand, portrayed by Keanu Reeves, is the legendary rockerboy whose digital engram is stored on the Relic biochip. His band Samurai rocked Night City, and his 2023 assault on Arasaka Tower made him a martyr — and a ghost in V’s head.

✗ Flatlined on that one, choom! The answer is Johnny Silverhand. Morgan Blackhand is a solo merc from the tabletop RPG, Adam Smasher is Arasaka’s cyborg enforcer, and Alt Cunningham is a legendary netrunner — and Johnny’s ex. Johnny is the rockerboy whose engram haunts V throughout the game.

02

Night City is located in the Free State of Northern California, situated between Los Angeles and San Francisco. The city is divided into several distinct districts. Which district is the wealthy corporate center of Night City?




✓ Correct! City Center is the gleaming corporate heart of Night City, home to the towering headquarters of megacorporations like Arasaka and Militech. It’s where the money flows, the corpo rats scheme, and the neon lights shine brightest over glass and chrome skyscrapers.

✗ Flatlined on that one, choom! The answer is City Center. Watson is V’s starting district — a former corporate hub now in decline. Pacifica is an abandoned resort district controlled by the Voodoo Boys. Heywood is a sprawling suburban district with gang influence. City Center is where the corps rule.

03

Jackie Welles is V’s best friend and partner in crime at the start of Cyberpunk 2077. He dreams of making it big in Night City and becoming a legend. What tragic event happens to Jackie early in the main story?




✓ Correct! Jackie Welles is fatally wounded during the botched heist at Konpeki Plaza. His death is one of the most emotional moments in the game and sets the entire main storyline in motion. As he always said — he wanted to go out as a Night City legend.

✗ Flatlined on that one, choom! The answer is that Jackie dies during the heist on Konpeki Plaza. Jackie is loyal to V until the very end — he never betrays anyone. He’s mortally wounded during the botched Arasaka heist, and his death is the catalyst for V’s journey with Johnny Silverhand.

04

In the world of Cyberpunk 2077, people modify their bodies with cybernetic implants. What is the dangerous psychological condition called when someone installs too many cybernetic modifications?




✓ Correct! Cyberpsychosis is a dissociative disorder caused by excessive cybernetic augmentation. Sufferers lose their sense of humanity and become violent, often going on deadly rampages. MaxTac, the NCPD’s elite unit, is specifically tasked with neutralizing cyberpsychos — a major side quest line in the game.

✗ Flatlined on that one, choom! The answer is Cyberpsychosis. It’s a core concept in the Cyberpunk universe — when someone gets too much chrome installed, they lose their grip on reality and humanity. The Cyberpunk: Edgerunners anime explores this through the tragic story of David Martinez.

05

The mega-corporation Arasaka plays a central role in Cyberpunk 2077’s story. The heist that kicks off the main plot takes place in a luxury Arasaka-owned hotel. What is the name of this hotel?




✓ Correct! Konpeki Plaza is an ultra-luxurious hotel owned by the Arasaka corporation. V and Jackie infiltrate it to steal the Relic biochip containing Johnny Silverhand’s engram. The heist goes catastrophically wrong, changing V’s life forever.

✗ Flatlined on that one, choom! The answer is Konpeki Plaza. The Afterlife is the legendary merc bar, Lizzie’s Bar is a Mox-controlled club and the Braindance headquarters, and Clouds is a “doll house” pleasure establishment in Westbrook. Konpeki Plaza is where the fateful heist takes place.

06

Panam Palmer is a fan-favorite character and potential romance option in Cyberpunk 2077. She is a member of a nomad clan living in the Badlands outside Night City. What is the name of her clan?




✓ Correct! The Aldecaldos are a proud nomad clan roaming the Badlands outside Night City. Panam Palmer is one of their most capable members, and through V’s friendship (or romance) with her, the Aldecaldos can play a pivotal role in one of the game’s possible endings.

✗ Flatlined on that one, choom! The answer is The Aldecaldos. The Wraiths are a hostile raider nomad gang in the Badlands, the Raffen Shiv are violent nomad outcasts who prey on travelers, and the Bakkers are another nomad clan from the Cyberpunk lore. The Aldecaldos are Panam’s family.

07

The Phantom Liberty DLC expansion introduced a new district to Night City and a major new character played by Idris Elba. What is the name of this character?




✓ Correct! Solomon Reed, portrayed by Idris Elba, is an FIA sleeper agent who plays a central role in the Phantom Liberty expansion. Set in the new Dogtown district, the DLC follows V and Reed as they navigate a web of espionage, betrayal, and political intrigue.

✗ Flatlined on that one, choom! The answer is Solomon Reed. Kurt Hansen is the warlord who controls Dogtown, Alex is an FIA contact who kicks off the DLC’s events, and Mr. Hands is a fixer operating in Pacifica. Solomon Reed, played by Idris Elba, is the expansion’s central character.

08

The Afterlife is one of the most iconic locations in Cyberpunk 2077. It serves as a gathering place for Night City’s mercenaries and fixers. What type of establishment is The Afterlife?




✓ Correct! The Afterlife is a legendary bar where Night City’s top mercenaries, fixers, and edgerunners gather. Its drinks are named after fallen legends — people who made their mark on the city. Run by Rogue Amendiares, it’s where the biggest gigs in Night City are brokered.

✗ Flatlined on that one, choom! The answer is a bar named after dead legends. The Afterlife is the most iconic merc bar in Night City, run by Rogue. Its cocktails are named after legendary edgerunners who died in spectacular fashion — and getting a drink named after you means you truly became a Night City legend.

Are you a legend of Night City — or just another gonk?

Separately, CDPR is also working on Cyberpunk: Edgerunners – Hunted Board Game, announced in early April 2026 and currently targeting a September 2026 launch. This will be the second tabletop game based on the company’s 2020 RPG, after Cyberpunk 2077: Gangs of Night City, another Kickstarter project that was shipped to backers in 2023 and saw a wider release the following year. The sequel to Cyberpunk 2077, code-named Project Orion, remains in development, having entered pre-production as of May 2025. That suggests it is likely to be CDPR’s second or third major release from this point, with The Witcher 4 expected to arrive first.
