The highly anticipated video game Cyberpunk 2077 has launched after multiple delays.
The title - featuring movie star Keanu Reeves - takes place across a hugely detailed futuristic city filled with characters fitted with technological implants.
BBC Click's Marc Cieslak met some of its creators and took an early explore inside.
When Mike Pondsmith was writing the first Cyberpunk game back in the 1980s, he didn't think he'd predict as much of the future as he has.
"From cyberware to instant communications and massive corporate control, we've got it all now," he says.
"The only thing we don't have is flying cars, which is really what I was hoping for.
"But we do have an awful lot of Cyberpunk stuff going on in the real world and that's why I think the genre is popular again today."
Mike's been a key part of the team that's turned the world he created for role-playing games all those years ago into one of the most anticipated video game releases in years.
He says he's been "pretty involved" from the beginning of the project, and his main role has been to keep it in line with the gritty realism of his original vision.
"It's very easy for a world like this to drift into pure science fiction, and you don't want that to happen.
"Cyberpunk is a dystopian future, that's about five minutes from our own current existence.
"The technology is a couple steps higher, and so forth, but in this particular universe, technology is not good for people.
"Pollution is rampant, crime is rampant and social and economic inequality is just accepted."
This dark setting is somewhere players have escaped to live out adventures since the first version was released in 1988.
