THE TOP 10 CYBERPUNK GAMES

There’s an innate joy to a good cyberpunk game; that sense of fighting The Man, of struggling up from the gutter in a world that doesn’t care, of being a rebel with a cause and, more importantly, some serious hardware. Sometimes it’s a depressing odyssey, other times, very tongue in cheek.

Here, then, are our pick of the games worth selling your genitals on the black market for.

10 ANACHRONOX

RELEASED: 2001 | PUBLISHER: EIDOS INTERACTIVE | DEVELOPER: ION STORM

Few cyberpunk games have the same indie-rock feel as Anachronox, the game from Ion Storm that wasn’t Deus Exor . It’s Tom Hall’s tribute to pretty much everything Tom Hall loves, from the dimension-shifting titular planet to comic book worlds, to the fact that you spend much of the game travelling with a planet as a companion. A literal planet. Shrunk down, hovering next you, its people voting on what they all want to do next. a janky experience to be sure, but an unforgettable one, and it’s a genuine tragedy we’ll never get the planned sequel.
