A hands-on preview of the unreleased Cyberpunk 2077 TCG by WeirdCo highlights fast, 20-minute matches built around 40–50 card decks (no more than three copies of a card) and three Legends. The game uses a dice-driven system (D4–D20) that starts a round clock when rolled; when a player hits seven gigs, they win, with sudden death at eight. Resources (eddies) and selling unused cards add depth, while artwork pulls from CD Projekt Red’s Night City vault and color-codes decks by skill trees. The reviewer praises the streamlined text, sharp visuals, and tournament-friendly structure, and plans to dive back in when the game launches later this year.
