Steam Cyberpunk Fest is here, and from August 3 to 10, you can get hold of cyberpunk games of all kinds at a discount. Dive into dystopian megacities with neon-lit mist, build relationships in life sims, rebel against mystical dictators, or enjoy a peaceful life in cozy sims, and soak in the poignant, rebellious, and edgy aesthetic of neon-noir worlds – from the huge world of the beloved Cyberpunk 2077 to the poignant story of Stray, and more – in detectives, deck-builders, and spy adventures.

We have a selection of 10 cyberpunk titles for you to get inspired, so check them out and share your favorites in the comments.

Cloudpunk 

In this neon-noir story from ION LANDS, the developer of Nivalis Nights, another cyberpunk life sim launching in September, and publisher Maple Whispering Limited, you take on the role of an employee of a delivery company and explore the city full of conspiracy. The game features vertical exploration, as you investigate the city not only on foot but also by a hovering car, meeting androids, AI, and unscrupulous humans.

Nobody Wants to Die

This visually striking retrofuturistic noir story from Critical Hit Games, PLAION, and Deep Silver is set in a dystopian version of New York in 2329, where technology promises humans eternal life. The protagonist, a detective, uncovers the horrifying secrets behind this way of life.

ROUTINE

An atmospheric sci-fi horror game from Lunar Software and Raw Fury, set on an abandoned lunar base designed with an 80s vision of the future in mind. It's instantly reminiscent of Alien, evoking a similar terrifying sense of loneliness in outer space, set against the contrasting beauty of the surrounding galaxy. Launched in December, it invites players on an engaging adventure in eerie isolation.

Cyberpunk in space – Egosoft's open-world game combines exploration and strategic planning as you navigate the galaxy, confront diverse factions, and build a vast space empire. Construct space stations, establish trade networks, and control entire production chains.

Midnight Moments

If you just want to dive into a cyberpunk aesthetic without completing missions, check out Happy Volcano's fresh release – a building sandbox in which you craft cozy dioramas with nostalgic vibes. You can build rain-soaked backstreets, glowing apartment blocks, or quiet neighbourhood corners, decorating your designs with props, placing citizens, and coming up with stories that bring your city to life.

Shadows of Doubt

How about a detective story in a cyberpunk setting? In the immersive RPG from ColePowered Games and Fireshine Games, you take on the role of a private investigator, solving cases and meeting the residents of a breathing city portrayed in a pixel-art style, also exploring its every corner.

Into The Grid

Flatline Studios and Gamersky Games' roguelike deckbuilder places players in the shoes of a cyberspace hacker, building and upgrading a deck of powerful programs. The project draws on an aesthetic of tabletop games and features action-packed card battles and tactical map exploration with resource management.

Transistor

This acclaimed sci-fi action RPG from Supergiant Games, the creators of Bastion, combines thoughtful strategic planning with fast-paced action and vibrant hand-painted artwork, ensuring an immersive and visually striking experience.

Minds Beneath Us

This atmospheric RPG from BearBoneStudio is a melancholic, story-rich adventure set in a world ruled by robots. The cinematic game, featuring hand-drawn animation and a combination of 2D characters and 3D environments, includes choices influencing the story, hidden clues, and an unsettling sense of a looming joyless future.
