Thank you all for your support through this project!
We are working through all the files and samples with the factory and making sure everything is printing as expected. Its all looking great, we're just tweaking to get all the details exactly right at this stage!
And we are delighted to be able to share the artwork for the fold out maps with you! These laminated, fold out maps are included in the Cyberpunk Master pledge level, and are 40x30 inches.
The Fold Out Maps
Here's all the fold out maps included as part of the Night City Map Box (In the Cyberpunk Master and Everything +1 pledge level).
Downtown Crossing
With some narrow and wider areas between buildings, elevation changes for rooftops and walkways this section of downtown in the shade of skyscrapers is perfect for street battles.
Chrome Nightclub
A rough and tumble chrome metal nightclub perfect for those rockerboy gigs.
Combat Zone
A section of the combat zone, with the shells of large buildings and the remains of a subway exposed below.
Uptown Plaza
A neon soaked plaza with a raised public area, complete with corporate artwork sculpture fountain.
Pacific Motors
A gang stronghold on the edge of the city based in a former garage.
Turnpike Junction
A large section of highway with slip roads and a bridge.
Waterfront Slums
A shanty town of container dwellings under a bridge by the waterfront.
Block Corner
A city block junction used as a gang hang out, complete with nightclub, street vendors and a ball court.
Dirt Track Circuit
Out in the badlands, this rock outcrop is used as a nomad camp where combat races take place.
Twin Blocks
This map of two adjacent buildings is designed to accomadate the lid and base of the Night City Map Box.
And finally here's our special poster map!
Fight Bar
This map is the special 'Glow-in-the-dark' poster map of a fight bar, 35x23".

The Cyberpunk Set is one step closer and we can reveal all the finished map designs in the books!
The pledge manager links are on the way to all backers via email.
For those of you who are following the campaign but are yet to back this is your final opportunity to secure exclusive rewards! This is your last chance if you're not already a backerlate pledgesare now open!
Now to the maps :)
First, this is all of the map pages from both volumes included in the Cyberpunk 2 Book Set. We show them as the 24" x 24" scenes you get using both books.
All of the map pages from both books that are included in the Cyberpunk Set.
Here's some example of mixing different page spreads to create new scenes. Each of these is 48" x 12" with the books laid out lengthways next to each other.
Some examples of using both volumes to create alternative scenes.
The next few examples show what can be done using 2 Cyberpunk Sets (so four books in total). If you backed the Everything +1 pledge level you'd have the two sets required for these 48" x 24" scenes!
Using two Cyberpunk Sets (4 books total) to make a larger down town city scene.
Using two Cyberpunk Sets (4 books total) to make a larger badlands scene.

This is the last chance to switch pledge levels if you are not already receiving our exclusive rewards! Those who pledge at the Cyberpunk Master level, will also receive an incredible 3D scenery set – a printed box designed to look like a Night City building, which holds exclusive maps, posters, and tokens.

We are working with our factory for a printing completion date and then we can finalise our timelines! We are currently expecting to be able to have rewards with backers in June.
Thanks you all for your support, and your ideas and help voting on your favourite maps.
What Happens Next? Backerkit will now process payments. This takes about 2 weeks, once this is complete we will receive the funds and the project is handed over to us.
We will be using Backerkit's pledge manager survey. It will take us about 2-3 weeks to build and test this, and as this is Christmas we feel it will be easiest to send surveys out in January after the holidays.
As usual the pledge manager is where you confirm your pledge level, add any optional purchases to your order, confirm your address and pay for shipping and any taxes due (for the UK and EU we collect VAT and pay that on all pledges and shipping).
While all this is happening we'll also we busy making the Cyberpunk RED set! Our ESTIMATED timeline is as follows -
Files to printers, trouble shooting, digital sign off and samples - January
Sign off and Mass Manufacture - February
Manufacture complete - April
Freight - May
Last Leg Fulfilment - June
Which brings me neatly onto the outstanding designs!
We will continue to share updates showing the artwork and designs for the maps and tokens, so please do keep sharing your thoughts and ideas, its great to read :)
We are delighted to announce the winning maps from our polls! The following Maps will be added to the Cyberpunk Books of Battle Maps -
Hospital Rooms & Lab Facility
Executive apartment and recreational areas
Low End residential/storage maze
Gang Base set us as a defendable position
When we have completed all the maps and signed off on the files we'll share the digital rewards.
Thank you all again for your help and support on this amazing project. Now, as usual, we cannot wait to get you your rewards to see what you think!!
Our next update will be an update on how the designs are coming along ahead of the holidays!
As usual any questions, queries etc please reach out to us here or [email protected]
Just a heads up that this weekend (Feb 21) we will be smoke testing the pledge manager survey.
This means about 4% of you will receive the survey link so we can check everything is working as it should.
Once we've had a check through everything on Monday we'll send the pledge manager out to everyone. There will be an update as well to keep you up to speed with what's happening!
As always any questions or queries you can reach us here of [email protected]
We are thrilled with how everything is coming along. Matt has been working on the maps, and we have started sampling with our factory.
We have decided to go with a heavier card for the Cyberpunk Master box, and a laminated closed tuck case for the Cyberpunk Set. We have gone back to ask for new samples to confirm the materials, and this will now arrive after Chinese New Year in mid February.
While our factory is enjoying their holiday, we will use the time to finish the map designs and start laying out the wonderful mission "Missing Marbles" which we absolutely love (thanks to Linda Evans for some wonderful work here!!)
We do regret that the pledge manager will be delayed until after CNY so you will be receiving your emails next month. This is due to a change in materials so we need to reconfirm weights. Please reach out if you have any questions or queries, we'll update again with details on how to complete the pledge manager next month.
Here is a look at what Matt has been working on for the maps.
This pair of Cargo Ship designs will make a whole ship map if the books are laid out side by side.
LEFT: Cargo Ship Design from Volume 1 RIGHT: Cargo Ship Design from Volume 2
These have been made so then can also line up with the Storage Yard designs to show part of a ship in dock.
TOP: Cargo Ship Design from Volume 1 BOTTOM: Storage Yard Design from Volume 2
TOP: Storage Yard Design from Volume 1 BOTTOM: Cargo Ship Design from Volume 2
And if you've got two Cyberpunk Sets, like in the Everything +1 pledge, you could set up an epic dockside scene.
