Cyberpunk 2077 Trailer: 10 Details & Gameplay Features You Totally Missed
5. Ability Theory: Mindhack
Peppered throughout the trailer are a number of uber-slick abilities, coming from citizens who've clearly paid for specific body-mods/augments that give a competitive or criminal advantage.
First up, and most visually shocking, is the mind-hack.
Done on an aeroplane as the camera zooms out to reveal somebody having used their laptop to fry a passenger's skull from the inside out, we see an even cooler example as someone sitting in a dilapidated apartment has managed to tap into a high-stakes corporate meeting.
The latter is the most fascinating for mission design and the world overall. What if - like Watch Dogs 2 - you can complete missions by finding the requisite access ports, offing targets without even entering the room, or in this case, without even moving?
