Description

In a city that operates on technology, a power outage brings catastrophe, but in darkness comes opportunity.

It hurts. Night City hurts. The suffering runs deep, and the deeper one falls, the longer the self-prescribed dreams play. Fortune, hope, love—all made possible by DMS technology.

A braindance repairman's daily encounters with his clients reveal the deterioration of the human mind and the desperation driving those to surrender to illusion. But not everyone desires a happy ending. Riddled with doubt, self-hatred, and guilt, he soon discovers the answer to pain... comes in a blackout.

Created in close collaboration with CD Projekt Red, embrace humanity and dare to break the cycle of a corrupt city that offers an escape for the price of your dependence. In Night City, you get what you pay for and... you get what you give.

Cyberpunk 2077: Blackout collects issues #1-#4.
