‘Cyberpunk RED’ Launches Two New RPG Books – Black Chrome and Interface RED
Cyberpunk RED expands the future with two new books, Black Chrome and Interface RED v2, which open up Night City like never before.
Cyberpunk RED is one of the iconic cyberpunk RPGs (it’s right there in the name). Descended from Cyberpunk 2020 (and Cyberpunk before it) by R. Talsorian Games, Cyberpunk RED takes players inside the infamous Night City. It’s where dreams are made and legends are born—after they go out in a blaze of glory.
Where the right chrome and enough eddies can get you anything. If you know how to take it. And the two new books open up that world in a new way.
Cyberpunk RED – Black Chrome
Black Chrome is an Edgerunner’s dream come true. It’s the bleeding edge of technology, most of it used to get ahead the only way Night City respects: with firepower, chrome, and hutzpah.
The whole book is presented as a guide to an exclusive Night Market. Collectively, Black Chrome adds more than 170 new items to the game, everything from new apps, to new gear, powerful power-armored linear frames, new weapons, cyberware, vehicles, armor, and most importantly fashion.
Fashion is so important, that there’s a free downloadable PDF that updates and upgrades the existing fashion in the game. It’s Black Chrome+ and it’s right here. There’s other stuff too, but it’s not nearly as important.
Interface RED v. 2
Interface RED, Volume 2, on the other hand, is the only book that can satisfy Night City’s voracious appetites. Whether it’s people, places, or things, the one thing Night City needs is More!
This is where Interface RED, Volume 2 comes in handy. This book collects together short articles custom-designed to improve your games of Cyberpunk RED. Each one takes a look at a different aspect of the Night City nightlife. Here’s what you can expect:
