HOW TO PLAY
In Cyberpunk TCG, you lead your own crew of edgerunners, taking on Gigs, building your reputation and battling your rival to become a Night City legend.
Build your crew around three powerful Legend cards, then deploy Units, equip Gear and use Programs to control the field. Eddies act as your resources, while six different dice represent the Gigs available across Night City.
While you still have dice in your Fixer area, you choose and roll a new Gig die at the start of your turn, taking the d20 last. Its value contributes to your Street Cred and can unlock powerful card effects, while fights between Units are resolved by comparing their power.
Key gameplay elements include:
Build your deck around three unique Legends
Play Units, Gear and Programs during a flexible Main Phase
Attack rival Units or target your opponent’s Gig area
Use Gig values and Street Cred to activate powerful effects
React to attacks with Quick effects, Blockers and Legends
Winning the Game
Your goal is to control the majority of Night City’s Gigs.
Start your turn with at least seven Gigs to win
Attack your rival’s Gig area to steal their Gigs
Protect your own Gigs while building your Street Cred
After the final player’s seventh turn, Overtime begins and gaining a majority of Gigs wins immediately
If you must draw a card but your deck is empty, your rival wins
For the latest wording, see the official gameplay guide and Comprehensive Rules. WeirdCo published its latest retail-release rules and errata update on 28 October 2026.
WHAT COMES NEXT?
Set 2, Edgerunners: Burn Bright, has been announced for Spring 2027. It will expand the game with characters and scenes from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, new mechanics and a new chase rarity still to be revealed. For now, Welcome to Night City is where your crew begins.
