This is some of the slickest box art I've ever seen while still ticking the exact same Character/Gun/Color tone checklist of the Cyberpunk cover.Here we go! Since we don't care if a cover has anything to do with the game itself per the perfect dark thread, I just created the best cyberpunk cover!

Sorry, I'm not seeing it. They all look distinctive. The only common factor here is race and gender.
I can understand why they went with this, It's marketed towards people that never seen the game and will pick it up in stores by looking at the cover, not people like us who would buy it anyway.
I do however think it's a tad boring, would have been cool with some deadly cyborg looking character.
I see so there is so much talk about the guy being white. Color doesn't matter right. Should they have put a random non white dude on there? That makes sense since the main characters they shown off are both white.. I'm guessing they are sticking with what they shown in previous marketing.
I also think going with the female version of V would have made it feel to much like ghost in the shell the movie.. good call
Anyway that being said, the box art is boring yes.

Ummm...no? I mean complaining there isn't more variation in characters who grace a videogame cover is one thing. But the statement that they look EXACTLY the same is not only off base, it's simply false. The only thing they have in common is they're white and male, that's it. If you see them all as EXACTLY the same then that's a you problem, not anyone else.

The irony here is chilling. Not a good look for you.
You know, I really don't care about the box art. But this is a game about customization, do whatever - and they put that dude on the cover instead of something that is realizing the world.
Just put the world on the cover.

Someone on the Cyberpunk reddit found a ARG site for Trauma Team from the game. Not sure if it's actually owned by CDPR or anything but there's a "Order" section that's currently offline...

That would look too busy though.

Nah I don't think that would work. It would be too out of context and ugly as compared to typical boxarts. I would've gone with something like this
Obviously it would need to be a cleaner image but you get the gist of it. Instantly recognizable to those who have been following Cyberpunk but also simplistic enough of a front cover to draw peoples attention.
It's to symbolize daylight because they know how well a lot of people responded to there being daylight in Cyberpunk.
Most likely it's because neon plays a notable role in the world and bright yellow neon is one of the most eye-catching colours of neon.
If the cover is reversible which would make sense and be good, I suspect yellow will all of a sudden grow on everyone.
The only conclusion I can come to whenever I read threads about Boxart is that people have to get these tatooed to their bodies. It always baffles me how literally every box art reveal is gamers losing their shit on how horrible it is, does it matter?
If this kinda stuff will be released so soon, can we assume a early 2020 release isn't out of the question?
2019 isn't out of the question. At most it'll be early 2020.
The curse of 'head down, gun up' returns!I like the yellow, but otherwise flashbacks of this
I was thinking the same, lol. It's like they tried to make the most generic looking boxart and then added some "yellow" to it.
This.
Who really buys boxed games? And if they do, are they going to frame the box and stick it on their wall?
I believe it was Jason Screier that said 2019 absolutely isn't happening.
As for early 2020, I'm on the fence what to do. I bet this game will truly shine on the new consoles. I might wait.

That wasn't the cover I was suggesting, just the idea.
You really think this would sell the game? Maybe for the sequel because as of right now nobody knows that logo or even anything in the world of CP77.
The official boxart looks a lot like The Witcher 3's. I think this will be the design for all CDPR games going forward.
The generic white dude they... didn't even fully create
Well... they've released lots of games now!
With the same character :|
But wait, Thronebreaker, that isn't Geralt, bet it's another generic white dude
👀
He flipflopped on himself hard. Not 2019... maybe 2019... maybe 2019 or 2020... 19 with delay to 20.. who knows? :shrug.emoji:
At least he has all his bases covered so no matter what people will say he was right.

Hold on... did you just gender swap Meve so she fits your agenda?
Lmao nobody actually cares to the point that they're losing their minds. It's just there's not really much else to be talking about when this thread is about the contents of the physical version of the game leaking lol
What? I was poking fun at the original comment because outside of The Witcher staring Geralt the next character CDPR created was a woman.
Somehow my brain missed context and went over my head. Fuck.
To be fair neon yellow will make it pop hard from shelves and people are likely to pick it up so check out back cover.
