The tabletop world has a new heavyweight champion. The official Cyberpunk Trading Card Game has officially become the most-funded TCG in Kickstarter history, pulling in a staggering $7.5 million and counting. Developed by WeirdCo in partnership with CD Projekt Red, the project reached its initial $100,000 funding goal in a lightning-fast five minutes.
A "Nova" Launch for Night City
The debut set, Welcome to Night City, marks the franchise's first foray into the physical card game space. Fans can expect to see legendary faces like V, Johnny Silverhand, Jackie Welles, and Judy Álvarez as playable characters.
The momentum shows no signs of slowing down; the campaign blew past the $5 million mark in less than three hours. The developers at WeirdCo were clearly stunned by the community’s "choom" energy, noting that stretch goals were being demolished faster than they could be posted.
Exclusive Rewards & Future Content
With the $7.5 million milestone in the rearview mirror, WeirdCo has introduced high-tier stretch goals to keep the hype train rolling:
- $8.5 Million: Johnny Silverhand Legend Pack Upgrade
- $9.5 Million: Saburo Arasaka Legend Pack Upgrade
- $10 Million: A "Nova Rare" Rebecca: Having a Moment card (from the Edgerunners series) awarded to all backers.
While Welcome to Night City launches later this year, the roadmap already includes a second set that will fully integrate the cast of the hit anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.
Why It Matters
This successful crowdfunding effort comes at a pivotal time for the IP. While CD Projekt Red has shifted focus away from further Cyberpunk 2077 DLC, this TCG offers a fresh way for fans to engage with Mike Pondsmith’s iconic dystopian universe.
Backers who jump in now gain access to limited "Beta" products and exclusive card art, allowing them to shape the competitive meta from the ground floor.
We at VarmaCards looking forward for more players to join the CyberPunk TCG soon !
