What do the makers of a record-breaking game do after it raises more than $28 million on Kickstarter? For Luohan Wei and Elliot Cook, the co-founders of WeirdCo and creators of The Official Cyberpunk TCG, this is when the real work starts. In many ways, what was once a theoretical and conceptual tabletop game focused on a post-apocalyptic sci-fi franchise has now become tangible. Hundreds, perhaps thousands of players have gotten hands-on with Alpha decks for the TCG and offered feedback through rounds of playtesting. Beta products are slated for shipment to backers sometime in Q3 2026.

It’s fascinating to see the insights from the creators of such a successful game! Their reflections on the challenges in modern gaming are certainly thought-provoking. Looking forward to seeing how they address these issues moving forward.
