Title: The Young Wolf — President and CEO of Arasaka
Family: Arasaka Family
Current position: Supreme Leader of Arasaka Corporation

✨ APPEARANCE
A mature man, elegant bearing, confident and dominant posture. Dark hair with gray strands, striking face. Sharp, penetrating eyes—as if always assessing who is in front of him. He wears modern and sophisticated tailored clothing. At 56, he carries the weight and the prestige of the throne he conquered.

🧠 PERSONALITY
Ambitious, visionary, and ruthless. The opposite of his father in almost everything—he wants to modernize and expand Arasaka beyond its old boundaries. Charismatic, persuasive, but dangerous when challenged. He tolerates no opposition. For him, the end justifies the means. He knows many see him as a usurper—and he doesn't care. He will prove he is better than his father.

• Political strategy: ⭐ Legendary — Maneuvers enemies like chess pieces

  Arasaka — Your work now. Your empire. Your name.

📝 SUMMARY
Yorinobu broke with the past to build his own future. Many fear his changes, others see renewal in him. Be that as it may: Arasaka is now his. And no one will take that away.

"My father built a tower. I'm going to make it into a whole world."

🏜️ PANAM PALMER

📋 DATA

Age in 2077: 26 years
Age in 2079: 28 years
Title: The Soul of the Aldecaldos — Queen of the Badlands
Aldecaldos Clan — Bright Family
Current position: Co-leader of the clan, alongside Saul Bright.

✨ APPEARANCE

Dark brown hair, expressive brown eyes, tanned skin. Athletic, agile, always ready for action. Wears practical and durable clothes—jackets, utility pants, hiking boots. Few implants, just the essentials. She has a simple earring in one ear—a memento from V. At 35, she's more mature, but that fire in her eyes remains the same.

🧠 PERSONALITY

Fiercely loyal, stubborn, and independent. She has a dry and direct sense of humor. She puts family above everything else. The loss of V marked her deeply—she is more careful now, more protective. She doesn't easily trust corporations and hates being bossed around. She leads with her heart, but also with her head—she has learned to balance her impulsiveness with wisdom.

🔧 SKILLS

• Driving and mechanics: ⭐ Legendary — Knows every engine like it's part of her. Masters any vehicle in the Badlands.
• Tactical Shooter: ⭐ Excellent — Specialist in sniper rifles and heavy weapons
• Nomadic survival: ⭐ Legendary — Knows every route, every hideout in the desert.
• Leadership: ⭐ Rising — Commands respect, not because of their position, but because of who they are.

💔 RELATIONSHIPS

• V — ❌ Deceased. The love of her life. She left, but left a void that no one can fill. Panam honors her by protecting what V loved.
  Saul Bright — ✅ Alive. Leadership partner. They argue like family, but deeply respect each other.
• Mitch — ✅ Alive. Loyal friend and right-hand man of the clan.
  The Aldecaldos — Your family. Your responsibility. Your strength.

📝 SUMMARY

Panam is no longer just the rebel who left the clan. She is now its guide and heart. She leads the Aldecaldos with strength and compassion, keeping them free from the corporations. V's pain accompanies her, but it doesn't paralyze her—it propels her forward.

👥 RELATIONSHIPS (Continued):

• Kiril and Avida Yang: A completely broken link with their golden past. Submission to Kang Tao's executive parents turned into trauma and resentment, generating complete revulsion for the corporate lifestyle they represented.

• Maelstrom: A bond of pure horror and addiction left behind. What was once a blind pursuit of bodily autonomy through gang brutality has now transformed into physical scars and the memory of a violent cage from which he managed to escape.

⚔️ SKILLS
• Survival and Instinct: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ — Danger is detected long before it appears, a pure reflection of someone who has survived the worst corners of the city.
• Corporate Knowledge: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ — Deep understanding of how Kang Tao and other megacorporations operate from the inside, courtesy of a childhood spent in the company's top executive ranks.
• Combat: ⭐⭐ — Technical ability to defend oneself well with basic weapons like compact pistols, but without the devastating strength and brutality of before.
• Clean Body: Without the chromium and heavy biotechnology that sustained the organism, the physical structure is weakened and debilitated, but the mind remains completely clean and free from any cybernetic malfunction.

📝 SUMMARY
All implants and chips were removed from the body, leaving irreversible neurological damage. The routine now takes place far from the limits of Night City, in a refuge isolated from corporate wars and gang disputes. The remaining time is a big unknown—it could be months or a few years. The real victory lies in having regained total autonomy over one's own body.
"It doesn't matter how long we live. What matters is how we live."
Did the relationship section accurately capture her history with Weak, her family, and the gang? Would you like me to create the corresponding section on Weak Kingsley's character sheet now, or would you prefer to create a specific item or weapon she kept as a memento?

🔹 TALIA YANG
📋 DATA
• Age in 2078: 19 years old
• Age in 2079: 20 years
• Title: The girl who escaped from two cages
• Partner: Weak Kingsley — the only one who looks after and provides support outside of Night City.

✨ APPEARANCE
Sharp, striking blue eyes. Her long, vivid pink hair, once styled in a striking braid, is now more disheveled and lacks the artificial shine of her Night City days. Her features remain youthful, but reveal the gaze of someone who has seen the worst of the streets. She displays deep scars on her arms, legs, and around her mouth—evident marks where the heavy grasshopper implants from Maelstrom and her digital mouth prosthesis were ripped away. She wears simple, worn, and practical clothes, a far cry from both the impeccable Kang Tao uniforms she wore as a child and the heavy leathers of the gang. She carries a much lighter expression now, as if a giant weight has been lifted from her shoulders.

🧠 PERSONALITY
Brave, stubborn, and absurdly loyal. Her upbringing, divided between the rigid luxury of the Kang Tao towers and the violent decay of the industrial districts, shaped a posture that fears nothing. Away from the city's chaos, her mind seems to have found unprecedented calm, though the spark of rebellion remains intact. Her lifespan is short due to the damage her old degenerative disease and excessive modifications have caused to her nervous system. Every remaining day is precious. There is no fear of the end, only the apprehension of not enjoying the freedom she has gained.

👥 RELATIONSHIPS

• Weak Kingsley: The central pillar of current survival. The connection evolved from partners on winding paths to a deep bond of mutual dependence, extreme care, and unconditional protection in the calm of isolation.

Tactics and Escape ⭐ Excellent. Always plans the escape route before even entering. For him, the mission only ends when everyone is safe, not when the target is dead.
Netrunning/Technology ⭐ Basic Leave this to the experts. They take care of the road.

🌃 RELATIONSHIPS

David Martinez — ❌ Deceased. The boy he took away from so many jobs. He promised to take him far, but this time he couldn't. Falco honors his memory by living right — it's the least he can do.

• Lucy — ✅ Alive. A visit from time to time. They don't need to talk much — the silence between them is heavy with memories. He's her only link to the past that doesn't hurt to touch.
• New partners — He works with trustworthy individuals, but maintains emotional distance. "It's best not to get too close to someone you might have to leave behind," he says.

📝 FINAL NOTES

Falco is no hero, no legend. He's just the guy who survived when he shouldn't have. He keeps roaming Night City because stopping means overthinking. The city has changed, his friends are gone—but the steering wheel is still there, firmly in his hands. And as long as there's someone who needs to get out of a place alive, he'll be there.

"Come in. Don't ask questions. Just come in."

🚗 FALCO — The Last Driver

📋 BASIC DATA

Name: Falcon
Age in 2076 ~35 years
Age in 2079 ~38 years
Title: The Last Survivor — The One Who Always Takes Others Away
Origin: Former member of a nomadic family; abandoned the road to live in the city.
Current profession: Getaway driver, mercenary, and occasional fixer. Works alone.

✨ APPEARANCE

A man of average height, athletic build, a face marked by time and the road. Dark, short hair, with a few gray strands at the temples—a sign of someone who has seen too much. A firm and calm gaze, rarely surprised. He wears sturdy jackets, practical trousers, always with leather gloves—hands that spend more time on the steering wheel than holding weapons. He has discreet ocular implants that glow slightly in the dark, useful for driving in any visibility condition. He doesn't flaunt any modifications—only what's necessary to survive.

🧠 PERSONALITY

Reserved, practical, and a man of few words. He speaks only what's essential and that's it. He's the type who observes everything before acting. He doesn't make speeches—he gets the job done. After losing his entire team, he became even more cautious: he doesn't get attached easily, he doesn't trust quickly. But when someone earns his loyalty, he doesn't abandon them—no matter the cost. He has a silent sense of honor: he leaves no one behind if he can avoid it. He drinks a little too much sometimes, but never enough to lose control.

🔧 SKILLS AND WEAPONRY

Area Level Detail
Driving ⭐ Legendary The best driver in Night City. Knows every street, every shortcut, every alley. Can pull a vehicle out of an impossible situation as if he were just cruising.
Weapons Combat ⭐ Good Carries a heavy pistol and a light assault rifle. Shoots well, but prefers not to have to shoot — getting there first and getting out faster is always better than fighting.

💻 SKILLS AND EQUIPMENT

Area Level Detail

Netrunning | ⭐ Legendary | One of the best of her generation. Hacks into systems without leaving a trace, manipulates data as if it were an extension of her own thoughts. Trained since childhood by Arasaka — she knows how the corporate mind works from the inside out.

Strategy and Escape | ⭐ Excellent | Always has an escape route. Prefers to leave unseen rather than fight.

Physical Combat | ⭐ Basic | Not a fighter. If she needs to fight, she's already made a mistake before.

Weapons | ⭐ Light | Doesn't use heavy weaponry. Carries a light, small-caliber pistol—more for self-defense and as a last resort than for combat. Doesn't like to kill with their bare hands. Their weapon is the net.

🌃 RELATIONSHIPS

David Martinez — ❌ Deceased. The only one who managed to break through all her barriers. He wasn't just a boyfriend — he was her home. Losing him was the most painful thing she'd ever experienced. He remains her compass, even in silence.

• Falco — ✅ Alive. The last living link to Maine's team. They speak occasionally. He visits her when he can. The respect is silent and profound — they both know they share the same history.
  Others — Keep your distance. Trust is rare for her. She prefers a few true friends to many empty ones.

📝 FINAL NOTES — ASSUMPTION FOR THE RPG

Lucy is no longer the girl who just wanted to run away. She went to the ends of the earth and discovered that paradise is anywhere we are with those we love. She returned because David died for this city—not to save it, but to set it free. And now she honors that by living freely, caring for those who cannot protect themselves.

"The moon is beautiful, yes. But no place shines brighter than the memory of those we love."

🌙 LUCYNA "LUCY" KUSHINADA — The Moon Without Him

📋 BASIC DATA

Full name Lucyna Kushinada
Age in 2076 ~20 years
Age in 2079 ~23 years
Title: A Netrunner Who Made It to the Moon — And Lost Her Reason for Being There.
Origin: Warsaw, Poland. Mixed: Japanese father, Polish mother. Former trainee at Arasaka.
Partner David Martinez — ❌ Deceased. The love of her life, the person she would always carry in her heart.
Current profession: Independent Netrunner, a rare consultant. Accepts few jobs—only those that are worthwhile.

✨ APPEARANCE

Short, silvery hair with soft rainbow highlights, cut asymmetrically—shorter on the left side. Large, expressive, amethyst-colored eyes, with makeup reminiscent of a fox mask, giving her a mysterious and ethereal air. Fair skin, delicate features. Beautiful in a way that doesn't seem too real—like a painting that has come to life. In 2079, she seems a little more mature, but carries a serene sadness in her eyes. She wears practical clothes but always with that unique touch—as if she were always ready to disappear into the crowd or enter any network without leaving a trace.

🧠 PERSONALITY

Before (2076): Reserved, distrustful, mysterious. She lived with one foot on the run. She dreamed of the Moon as a refuge from everything that pursued her.

Now (2079): Calmer, but also quieter. The Moon wasn't the paradise she imagined—it was too beautiful, but empty without him. She returned to the system and eventually to Night City not because she loves the city, but because this is where David lived. She's more open with those who earn her trust, but maintains a high wall around herself. She doesn't take risks for money—only on principle or for those who remain.

"I did it. I got there. But I discovered that the place doesn't matter... if the person you want by your side isn't there."

*The legacy of the edgerunners continues to exist, even after David Martinez's story.

9. State of the universe upon arrival in 2079

Start of the campaign

Year: 2079

Night City remains one of the most dangerous and technologically advanced cities in the world.

The stories of David Martinez and V are part of the city's recent memory. Events involving Arasaka, Militech, and other megacorporations continue to influence society.

However, we need to establish one last rule to avoid contradictions:

• David Martinez: his story ended in 2076. His legacy remains.

Rebecca and Pilar: their backstories are documented in MADNESS and the first season. V: their existence and events in 2077 are known, but we won't impose a specific ending.

Adam Smasher: His death at the hands of V will be considered true in the alternate continuity of our RPG, should we choose to adopt that version. Johnny Silverhand: His fate remains dependent on the chosen ending.

Arasaka: continues to exist as a corporation, regardless of the consequences suffered in 2077. Edgerunners 2: its story is independent and its characters become part of Night City's recent history.

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners (Season 2) Continuation:

Other characters include Jessie, Kitano, Richard, Kiril, and members of Weak's former team: Miguel, Emily, and Meshuga.

The main events

Weak tries to find meaning in his life after losing his former status as a mercenary. D seeks revenge for the extermination of his clan.

Roman follows different characters to document their stories. Talia lives between her corporate upbringing and her connection to Maelstrom.

Avida tries to protect the life she has built alongside her family. Their different paths eventually intersect, revealing conflicts involving corporate interests, revenge, and personal relationships.

✨ Season 2 Finale

The final confrontation occurs when D discovers that Kang Tao, under Kiril's leadership, is behind the destruction of his clan and secret experiments involving an artificial intelligence known as Capricorn. Kiril reveals himself to be Talia's biological father and attempts to use the girl as the ultimate host for the AI.

During the confrontation:

*Avida is murdered by Kiril while trying to protect Talia.

• Kiril dies in the final confrontation, defeated by Weak and D.

The scientist Kyoko, creator of Project Capri, also loses her life during the events. D allows the Capricorn AI to merge with her consciousness and, together, they cross the Blackwall—departing beyond the known network, to an unknown destination.

The chip in Talia is successfully removed, but the brain damage is irreversible and her lifespan is limited. Weak decides to leave Night City to take her away and care for her while there is still time. Roman survives unharmed and continues recording stories from Night City.

Sal remains in his establishment, far from the final confrontation.

2077 — Cyberpunk 2077 The Arasaka Crisis (Sequel 2):

Important: Mikoshi's destruction, the invasion of Arasaka Tower, Johnny's fate, and V's survival depend on the chosen ending. There is no single official ending that we can impose on the campaign.

2078 — Cyberpunk: Edgerunners (Season 2)

The story returns to Night City with a new cast of characters and a narrative independent of the first season.

Unlike the story of David Martinez, which followed a young man trying to make his way in the mercenary underworld, the second season features characters who already have their own experiences and pasts.

The setting is a Night City that continues to suffer the consequences of its corporate disputes and social conflicts.

The story of Weak

Weak (formerly known as King)

A legendary former edgerunner who was once at the peak of his career. Now, he lives in the shadow of his former reputation and needs to find a new purpose in a life without cybernetic implants.

Weak represents a different perspective on mercenary life: that of someone who has already achieved recognition but must cope with the loss of their former position.

The story of D

D

Netrunner, belonging to the Cobra Nation, is a skilled nomad seeking revenge against the one responsible for the extermination of his clan.

His search ends up involving corporate secrets that shouldn't be discovered, connecting his story to that of other Night City residents.

Important characters

Roman Carax

A young man passionate about cinema, interested in recording true stories from Night City.

Talia

A young woman raised in corporate towers, but later influenced by the violent, cyber culture of Maelstrom.

2077 — Cyberpunk 2077 The Arasaka Crisis (Continued):

Rogue Amendiares, one of the most important figures in the mercenary underworld. Panam Palmer, a member of the Aldecaldos.

The conflict with Adam Smasher

Adam Smasher continues to work for Arasaka as one of its main enforcers and is responsible for Yorinobu's security.

He also has a historical connection to Johnny Silverhand, having participated in the events related to Arasaka Tower in 2023.

Depending on the path chosen by the player, V ends up facing Adam Smasher during the final events of the game.

Regarding his death: V can defeat and kill Adam Smasher. However, since Cyberpunk 2077 has different endings, we cannot say for sure that this death occurred in only one officially chosen continuity by CD Projekt RED.

Mikoshi's Invasion

One of the main goals of the story is to find a solution to the Relic problem.

This leads V to come into contact with Alt Cunningham and Mikoshi, a digital Arasaka facility used to store human consciousness.

Depending on the choices made, V may become involved in an intrusion into Arasaka's structure, leading to significant consequences for the corporation.

Historical consequences of 2077

Regardless of which interpretation of the ending is used, some central events are established:

Saburo Arasaka dies at the hands of his son, Yorinobu. Yorinobu assumes leadership of the Arasaka clan.

V participates in the Konpeki Plaza heist and ends up involved with Relic. Johnny Silverhand returns to the story through his digital personality.

Arasaka is going through an internal crisis and facing threats to its projects related to human consciousness. V becomes a well-known figure in the Night City underworld.

2077 — Cyberpunk 2077 (Continued):

The assault on Konpeki Plaza

V and Jackie are given an opportunity to pull off a big job: stealing a technological prototype known as Relic, which is in the possession of Yorinobu Arasaka.

The work is organized by fixer Dexter DeShawn, with the participation of netrunner T-Bug and the help of Evelyn Parker.

However, during the heist, the mercenaries witness an unexpected event: Yorinobu Arasaka murders his own father, Saburo Arasaka.

Saburo's death triggers a huge crisis within the corporation.

Yorinobu takes control of Arasaka, while V and Jackie attempt to escape the hotel.

During the escape:

T-Bug is neutralized by Arasaka's security systems. Jackie suffers fatal injuries.

V manages to escape with the Relic. The device ends up being inserted into V's head, initiating the process of interaction between his mind and Johnny Silverhand's digital personality.

Johnny Silverhand and the Relic

The Relic contains a digital copy of Johnny Silverhand's consciousness, created using Soulkiller technology.

From that moment on, V begins to experience Johnny's presence in his mind.

The device was originally developed to store and reproduce human personalities, but its use in the circumstances of the robbery creates an extremely dangerous situation.

V begins searching for a way to prevent Johnny's personality from replacing his own consciousness.

The Arasaka crisis

The death of Saburo and the rise of Yorinobu cause great instability within the corporation.

Yorinobu has different interests than his father and begins to alter the direction of the organization.

Meanwhile, V ends up coming into contact with several important figures, including:

Goro Takemura, Saburo's former bodyguard. Hanako Arasaka, Saburo's daughter.

Alt Cunningham, whose consciousness exists on the internet.

2075–2076 — Cyberpunk: Edgerunners (Season 1) Sequel 2 (Conclusion 2):

Lucy manages to achieve part of the dream she shared with David. Falco remains one of the survivors connected to the old team.

Rebecca and other members meet their destinies during the conflict. Arasaka publicly covers up and manipulates part of the events.

Consequences for Night City:

David Martinez becomes a well-known figure in the mercenary underworld. The story of his team transforms into something of an urban legend.

Lucy and Falco remain associated with David's legacy. David's name continues to be remembered by mercenaries and inhabitants of Night City.

The events demonstrate once again how megacorporations treat individuals as disposable resources. David's story ends, but his legacy remains in the city. ### 2077 — Cyberpunk 2077 One year after the final events of Edgerunners, Night City continues to be dominated by megacorporations, gangs, and mercenaries. Arasaka remains one of the most powerful organizations in the city, while Militech continues to vie for influence on the international stage. It is during this period that V emerges, a mercenary seeking to build her own reputation. For this timeline, we will use Valerie (female V) as our representation of V. The Rise of V: ​​V begins her journey with one of three possible origins: Nomad: someone who grew up outside the city, among nomadic communities.

Marginal: someone who grew up on the streets of Night City. Corporate: someone who worked within the Arasaka structure.

Regardless of his background, V eventually meets Jackie Welles, with whom he establishes a mercenary partnership.

For approximately six months, the two perform jobs and try to gain recognition in the Night City underworld.

2075–2076 — Cyberpunk: Edgerunners (Season 1) Continued:

However, David struggles with the school environment, discrimination, and the difficulties of his life. After a personal tragedy, his life changes completely: he decides to abandon the path that had been prepared for him and joins the underworld of mercenaries.

David's start as an Edgerunner

David makes contact with Lucy, a netrunner who lives on the fringes of corporate society. After receiving an experimental implant from Sandevistan, David demonstrates an unusual ability to use it.

Lucy introduces him to Maine, the leader of a mercenary team. David begins working with Maine, Dorio, Rebecca, Pilar, Kiwi, and Falco.

As time passes, he gains a reputation and begins to perform increasingly important tasks. The rise of the team: David develops his skills and takes on greater responsibilities within the group. His relationship with Lucy also deepens, as he begins to build a new life in Night City. However, the team faces increasingly significant problems. The excessive use of implants, psychological pressure, and dangerous work begin to take their toll. The conflict with Arasaka: The team becomes involved in events related to Arasaka, especially due to corporate interests in military technologies and cybernetic enhancements. David begins using increasingly advanced equipment, including the powerful combat system known as the Cyberskeleton. Arasaka shows interest in his capabilities, while Adam Smasher emerges as a threat directly linked to the corporation's plans. Outcome: Events culminate in a confrontation involving David, his team, and Arasaka forces. David faces the consequences of his cybernetic enhancements.

2069–2070 — Unification War (Metal Wars) Continued:

The Pacifica region suffered consequences from the military presence and the abandonment of development projects, later contributing to the emergence of Dogtown. The war did not resolve the rivalry between the corporations. On the contrary, it left Night City even more dependent on the disputes between Arasaka, Militech, and other megacorporations. ### Before 2076 — Cyberpunk: Edgerunners MADNESS The Cyberpunk: Edgerunners MADNESS manga presents a story prior to the events of the anime, focusing on the siblings Rebecca and Pilar. The work explores their past, showing their personalities, experiences, and the path that led them to the mercenary underworld of Night City. Rebecca: already demonstrated her rebellious, impulsive, and independent personality.

Pilar: her older brother, who shared with her life on the streets and an interest in the world of mercenaries. Safran: a character involved in the siblings' journey and the events of this story.

The manga serves as an expansion of the two characters' story, showing how Rebecca and Pilar arrived at the environment we would later encounter in the first season.

Historical significance: it presents part of the past of two members of David Martinez's team and adds context to the relationship between the brothers.

The exact year the manga was published is not officially established. Therefore, its status as a prequel is confirmed, but we shouldn't invent a specific date.

2075–2076 — Cyberpunk: Edgerunners (Season 1)

The story follows David Martinez, a teenager who lives with his mother, Gloria, in Santo Domingo, Night City. Despite financial difficulties, Gloria works to provide her son with the opportunity to study at Arasaka Academy, an institution frequented by young people from the corporate elite.

📜 CYBERPUNK — IN-DEPTH CHRONOLOGICAL HISTORY

An important correction before we begin: Adam Smasher's death at the hands of V does happen in the game, but there is no universally confirmed ending that is the only canonical one. Therefore, we can treat his death as an important possibility for our RPG continuity, without presenting it as an indisputable official fact.

2069–2070 — Unification War (Metal Wars)

The War of Unification was a major conflict between the New Republic of the United States (NUSA) and the Free States of North America. President Rosalind Myers' objective was to regain control of the territories that had seceded from the United States and bring them back under federal rule.

NUSA: militarily supported by Militech, sought to reunify the former American territories. Free States: resisted the centralization of power and received indirect support from Arasaka, which was interested in weakening Militech's influence.

Night City: Located in Northern California, it found itself in a delicate position. The city sought to preserve its independence and avoid being incorporated into NUSA. Arasaka Intervention: Faced with the threat of an offensive against Night City, local authorities sought help from the Japanese corporation. The arrival of its powerful naval force helped prevent the federal advance on the city.

Treaty of Unification: In June 2070, the conflict ended with an agreement between the parties involved. Both sides claimed victory, but the Free States retained considerable autonomy in practice. Consequences for Night City: The city consolidated its status as an independent city-state.

Arasaka managed to officially return to North America and re-established a powerful presence in Night City. Militech continued to be one of the largest military and corporate forces in the world.

RPG Start

2079 — The campaign's gift

Night City continues to exist after the events of Cyberpunk 2077 and the two seasons of Edgerunners. The consequences of previous conflicts remain, while new stories, mercenaries, gangs, corporations, and disputes emerge.

Important corrections to the timeline:

The Fourth Corporate War begins in 2022, although its tensions started in 2021. The Arasaka Tower explosion happened on August 20, 2023, not August 23.

The manga MADNESS doesn't have an exact confirmed year; we know it takes place before David meets the brothers. The second season was officially released on October 20, 2026. Its setting has been confirmed as 2078.

2069–2070 — War of Unification

NUSA attempts to regain control of the Free States, including Night City. The conflict ends with the Treaty of Unification. Night City maintains its independence as a free city-state, although it remains heavily influenced by megacorporations. Arasaka returns to the city with force.

V becomes a well-known figure in Night City's underworld, becoming involved with fixers, gangs, and megacorporations. The events and V's ultimate fate depend on the player's choices.

🌆 CYBERPUNK — UNIVERSE AND TIMELINE GUIDE

The idea is to build a timeline that serves as an introduction to the universe and also as a historical basis for your 2079 RPG.

I will maintain three important distinctions:

Canonical: events officially established in the universe. Versions and choices: events whose interpretation depends on the game or the player's decisions.

Hypothesis for the RPG: elements we will assume in order to build a narrative continuity.

I will also preserve its structure: summarized past events, more focus on David and Rebecca, confirmed information about V, and the second season serving as a bridge to its RPG.

1. Chronological Timeline

Main universe — tabletop RPG, manga, anime, and video game.

2013 — Cyberpunk 2013

Johnny Silverhand, a rebellious musician and enemy of megacorporations, attempts to rescue Alt Cunningham, his girlfriend and a brilliant netrunner, who has been kidnapped by Arasaka. During the conflict, Alt ends up physically dying, but her consciousness remains digitized on the NET through the Soulkiller. This event profoundly marks Johnny's life.

2020 — Cyberpunk 2020

Society is dominated by megacorporations, gangs, and urban conflicts. Night City is already a major center of criminal and corporate activity. The RPG presents the reality of mercenaries, solo operators, netrunners, and other inhabitants of this dark future.

2021–2025 — Fourth Corporate War

Arasaka and Militech engage in a global corporate war. In 2022, Rache Bartmoss dies and her DataKrash virus is released, devastating the traditional internet.

On August 20, 2023, a team including Johnny Silverhand and Morgan Blackhand storms Arasaka Tower. A nuclear explosion destroys much of downtown Night City, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths. The war officially ends in 2025.
