Über dieses Spiel

Welcome to Night City, 2045. In this alternate Earth, widespread economic and ecological disaster paved the way for the rise of sovereign megacorporations, powerful street gangs, and corrupt politicians to take control. Neon-lit urban sprawl covers population centers, where the underclass labors under the yoke of corporate wage slavery while the wealthy augment themselves with cybernetic implants, enjoy cutting-edge technology, and do designer drugs. But Cyberpunk Red is a tabletop roleplaying game, so where you do you fit in? You play a cyberpunk, a rebel surviving on the edge of society by their highly valuable set of skills. You might be a hacker, a cyborg road warrior, an assassin, street doc, or fixer; but will you use your talents for a big payday from corporate interests? Or fight back against a rigged system and liberate the people? Cyberpunk Red is the latest installment in a series of tabletop roleplaying games that have directly inspired video games and television shows like Cyberpunk 2077 and Cyberpunk Edgerunners.

How to Make a Character in Cyberpunk Red

Cyberpunk Red gives players three levels of control over character customization: Streetrat, which is a ready-to-go character template, Edgerunner, where a few key decisions have been made but allows some customization, or Complete, where players have full control over their character build.

Characters start with a role, which has a unique ability and defines their place in Night City's edgerunning society and subculture. There are ten roles to choose from, and they might offer some suggestions of skills to take. Next, you'll run that character's Lifepath, a unique system for determining their personal history where you roll or choose results from a series of tables that reveal their origin, family, relationships, style, and more. You can pick the result that fits your concept best, or roll for a complete surprise of a character! Next, you'll buy your characters stats, allocating points to the ten main stats that form the base of their talents. These stats will also feed into a few derived statistics, like hit points and humanity, which you'll calculate next. Then come skills, perhaps your character's most important assets, which you'll buy similar to stats to determine what they're trained in or especially skilled at. Finally, you'll be able to purchase gear, including weapons, armor, tech, and cybernetic augmentations!

Classes

Corporate

Corporate

Living in Cyberpunk is a struggle, a battle for resources against the greedy corporations that control all. But what if you were on the side with all the cool stuff? The Corporate Role gives you the resources and personal skills that come with a high spot on the career ladder. But they also come with a target on your back put there by company rivals.

Fixer

Fixer

The key to survival in Cyberpunk Red is getting others to take the bullets for you. The Fixer does this by arranging the jobs guns for hire take on, taking a cut and staying out of the action. Choose this role to play the dealmaker and put your street smarts to use for the team.

Lawman

Lawman

When the gangs and corporate-backed mercenaries are upgraded with savage cybernetic weapons, beat cops don’t stand a chance. And yet when you play this Role, you’ll be the guy on the front lines just trying to keep the peace while the city turns into a warzone. At least you’ll have authority abilities and backup to get what you need when the situation gets really hostile.

Media

Media

The world of Cyberpunk is a bleak one, and everyone has to get their hands dirty to survive. But if you want to play a character with a more noble calling, consider the Media Role. Armed with a camera and tenacity, you work to expose the shady corporations that rule the world. The more successful you are, the more credibility you earn to tackle bigger stories.

Medtech

Medtech

The Cyberpunk Medtech is a valuable Role. Professional medical care costs a fortune in the dystopian future, so you save a lot by having the skills yourself. Not only can you patch up allies (or randos for a price) with a hasty surgery, you can also install new cybernetic mods.

Netrunner

Netrunner

In the Cyberpunk future, the internet is a reality unto itself. Netrunners are the master hackers who can move freely within this world. You plug your brain in directly, so there’s risk, but that’s what makes the game fun. Your gameplay abilities here will be infiltrating secure servers and stealing their valuable data.

Nomad

Nomad

The Cyberpunk Nomad Role is a little Mad Max, a little Fast & Furious. They gather into large family units that live by their own code and live on the road. When you play this Role, you’ll probably be a tough gunslingers who’s great behind the wheel. You can call upon your family for shelter or firepower, but you’re obligated to return the favor.

Rockerboy

Rockerboy

If you’re drawn to the Bard class of DnD, or Keanu Reeves’ performance in the Cyberpunk 2077 video game, be a Rockerboy. That's what Keanu’s character Johnny Silverhand was. These performers sway fans with their anti-corporate messaging, rallying them and gaining allies for battle.

Solo

Solo

Here’s your full combat class. Be you a mercenary or loyal soldier, Solos are great with guns and often enhanced with lots of cybernetics for protection. Their special ability allows you to ready your skills as soon as battle starts so that you’re always prepared for what’s coming.

Techie

Techie

Every team needs someone to fix all the gear they rely on in Cyberpunk, and that’s you if you play a Techie. You can build, maintain, and modify people’s gadgets and even vehicles. You can also make use of junk you find around the city to make quick repairs.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

When does Cyberpunk Red take place?
Cyberpunk Red takes place in an alternate universe’s year 2045, between the events of previous editions Cyberpunk 2020 and Cyberpunk 2077. It deals with the aftermath of the Fourth Corporate War ending in the detonation of a nuclear device in its core setting, Night City.
How does Netrunning work in Cyberpunk Red?
“Netrunning” is a subsystem for hacking in Cyberpunk Red. While in previous editions, a hacker or netrunner worked remotely, in Red they wear virtual reality goggles that allow them to access the Net from alongside the rest of the party. Hacking occurs concurrently with other events in the game, and a group’s Netrunner must balance their actions in “meatspace” with the actions they take to hack ever deeper into a system. Each system has a number of levels based on how secure it is, and each level is guarded by a code, passwords, or anti-hacking software that attacks Netrunners who intrude. When a Netrunner defeats all the levels of security in a system, they can access it to get whatever they’re looking for. But watch out! You’ll need to rely on the rest of your crew to ensure you’re not vulnerable in meatspace while you do it.
What do you need to play Cyberpunk Red?
To play Cyberpunk Red, you’ll need a character sheet, dice, and a group of friends! All of these can be physically or virtually present, and at least one of you should understand the basic rules. Usually, that’s the Game Master, the player who prepares the scenario, presents it to the players, and facilitates the game. This player can help the rest learn as they play, creating characters and letting the job unfold!
What system does Cyberpunk Red use?
Cyberpunk Red uses an updated version of the Interlock system, streamlined from earlier editions. The core mechanic involves rolling a d10 and adding stat and skill bonuses to beat a target number, and it has several subsystems for such cyberpunk activities as combat and hacking.
What dice do you need for Cyberpunk Red?
At minimum, you’ll need one ten-sided dice and one six-sided dice, as Cyberpunk Red uses only d10s and d6s. Some cases may require multiple dice, however, and players may want to have an extra d10 and a few extra d6s as well.
