Quick Start Guide for Tabletop Role-Playing
The recent update 2.2 for Cyberpunk 2077 introduced Easy Mode, which offers a condensed version of the tabletop role-playing game. This includes shortened rules and a beginner-friendly mission to help players transition from using controllers to dice pools. Gamers can choose to play as one of five pre-made characters: Rockerboy, Solo, Tech, Medtech, or Media. While providing a brief overview of Night City, players of the video game will find themselves immersed in the familiar prequel world of Cyberpunk RED.
Exploring the World of Cyberpunk
Cyberpunk RED, which originally debuted in 2020 alongside Cyberpunk 2077, is the latest edition of the iconic Cyberpunk 2020 RPG from 1989. The game delves into a dystopian sci-fi universe where mega-corporations reign supreme in a world dominated by capitalist technology. Set in 2045, Cyberpunk RED bridges the gap between the events of Cyberpunk 2020 and Cyberpunk 2077.

According to Polygon, the Cyberpunk RED: Easy Mode is currently accessible for PC users.
