Cyberpunk 2077 Has Found Its Spiritual Successor: This New RPG Will Blow You Away
While we wait for the sequel to Cyberpunk 2077, a promising new RPG is set to take us 60 years into the future, deep into a sprawling megacity. With advanced technology, urban unrest, and hidden mysteries, this adventure promises to be as immersive as it is explosive.
Project Orion, the highly anticipated follow-up to Cyberpunk 2077, is still a long way off. CD Projekt RED is currently focusing all its efforts on The Witcher 4 — dramatically unveiled at the Game Awards, and featuring a radically transformed Ciri. So, fans will need to be patient for a few more years. But if you’ve already explored every corner of Night City and are craving another futuristic dystopia, Neo Berlin 2087 might be the perfect alternative. With its intense sci-fi thriller vibe and ambitious gameplay, this RPG—blending action, stealth, and investigation—could be your next obsession.

A Futuristic Berlin at the Heart of a Conspiracy
“A unique action RPG in both third- and first-person perspectives; a deep cinematic detective thriller set in a dark vision of Berlin’s future”—that’s how the game is described. The story begins with the murder of Berlin’s police chief. You play as Nolan, a troubled detective tasked with protecting Natalie, the victim’s daughter, who may hold the key to uncovering the truth. This investigation will impact the entire city and reveal that Nolan and Natalie’s fates are more intertwined than they ever imagined. The narrative promises an emotionally rich experience, exploring themes like justice, friendship, love, guilt, sacrifice, and betrayal.
Immersive and Flexible Gameplay
Much like Cyberpunk 2077, Neo Berlin 2087 offers a freedom of approach that will appeal to even the most demanding players:
- Switch seamlessly between third-person and first-person perspectives for full immersion.
- Combat system lets you choose between stealth and all-out action.
- Driving mechanics promise high-speed chases through the city streets.
- High-tech weapons and gadgets to suit every playstyle.
Early footage of the game showcases a sleek visual style, despite a few technical rough edges. Whether the gameplay will be fully refined by launch remains to be seen.
Coming Soon to Consoles and PC
As of now, no official release date has been announced for Neo Berlin 2087, but it’s expected to land well before Project Orion. It’s coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and will also be available on Steam. With so much potential, it could become a must-play for fans of cyberpunk RPGs.
So, are you excited to dive into this futuristic thriller? Stay tuned—Neo Berlin 2087 might just be one of the most talked-about games in the coming months!
