CD Projekt Red has announced a Cyberpunk trading card game this afternoon, and the Kickstarter pledges are rising so fast the total never stops growing. The goal was a paltry £75,174. The total was £1.3 million when I started writing this and it’s since soared past £2.7m.

The Cyberpunk Trading Card Game is being made by CD Projekt Red in collaboration with WeirdCo, which is a smallish Seattle-based company that apparently specialises in making trading card games, though this looks to be its first one. WeirdCo’s website says it doesn’t use AI and that its goal is “to make games that remind us what it means to be human”.

The game’s debut set of cards focuses on characters from Cyberpunk 2077, like Johnny Silverhand, V, and Judy Álvarez, whereas the second set will focus on characters from the Netflix anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. That first deck, Welcome to Night City, is due to arrive later in 2026.

Pledges start at $49 for two pre-built starter decks, but scale all the way up to a face-melting $7999 – a mega-bundle that has eight starter decks, 1,944 booster packs, dice, rare cards, metal cards, play mats, a binder, and more.

A how to play video shows an example of the Cyberpunk Trading Card Game in action, and it looks like it uses a blend of dice and cards to create a fairly complex, Magic The Gathering-like experience. You can browse through all of the cards on the Cyberpunk Trading Card Game website; the art is very nice.

Cyberpunk 2077 passed 35m sales late last year, enjoying a lift from a well received Switch 2 release, and the relatively recent Phantom Liberty game expansion and accompanying game overhaul. A sequel is in pre-production at CD Projekt Red’s new Cyberpunk headquarters in Boston, and Cyberpunk 2 will feature a second city that we’ve heard “is like Chicago gone wrong”.

CD Projekt Red is also, meanwhile, in full production on The Witcher 4, which we’ve been told not to expect before 2027 – though CD Projekt Red is bullish about the likelihood of following it with subsequent Witcher games quickly afterwards. We’ll apparently get our next look at The Witcher 4 this summer in Unreal’s annual showcase.
