10 Best TableTop RPGs That Aren’t Dungeons And Dragons
3. Cyberpunk
With the release of the video game Cyberpunk 2077 rapidly approaching, there has been renewed interest in this series. Cyberpunk has been a tabletop RPG since 1988, with multiple editions being released over the years. The new edition Cyberpunk Red is being released this year, which may help a new generation to gain interest in this game.
The world of Cyberpunk is set in a future dystopia. All the world superpowers have collapsed, and the corporations have taken over. In this future hellscape, your group of players will be looking for a way to survive and maybe make some money in this horrific future.
The first thing your players will have to do is pick a class. A few of the ones included are Rockerboys (Future-Bards), Solo’s (Assassins and bodyguards), Netrunners (Hackers), and Techs (Doctors or engineers). All these classes have their own specialities and abilities and will be vital for your team to survive.
The stories the players encounter in cyberpunk can be as big or a little as you like. The players may just need to pay off the local loan shark, or maybe they are trying to get some industry secrets. Either way, the world of cyberpunk is ripe for exploration.
