Just another CD Projekt Red Tweet, although to the inadvertent publics of the Cyberpunk 2077 wild chat, it was a bombshell. “More than a machine. More than a weapon. (More than you can probably afford… πŸ˜‰) Semimaru β€” from Yaiba. πŸ—‘” It has thousands of engagements only wondering about the Polished design- gamers sighed, “Oh! I am short of an empty Eddie Wallet.”

The vehicle appears to be a daughter of those cybernetic fever dreams. With angles sharp enough to slice through glass and a paint job screaming, “I run Night City,” there is probably little wonder that the culture is confused about how to obtain one. The replies are a mixture of awe, utter confusion, and chaotic energy-you know, whatever occasion follows an update to Cyberpunk 2077. @Penthux said, “OMFG That’s gorgeous! <3,” while @YukkuriLord jokingly replied, “I doubt it will survive my driving style.”

The real tea is: how do you even get this? Well, apparently, it somehow ties up to River Ward’s questline, as multiple players pointed out in the replies. @FaLL3nGh0St said, “You receive a quest from River to obtain the vehicle,” and @fractalhalo added that “You might have to do Claire’s race challenges too.” Anyhow, free rides in Night City!

Hardcore points? Another one: @KaidoFett chimed in with, “Shame on yall for hinting at songbird Alex and aurore but can’t do nothing with none of em,” basically proving that whatever CD Projekt Red tries to do, someone is going to be salty about it; meanwhile, @Don_Melville showed off, “Ayoo, I’ve got over a million eddies in my current playthrough. Still can’t afford? πŸ‘€,” Spoiler: Probably not.

If a Semimaru performance breakdown manages to stir a debate, it is about being worth the hype or not. @KamilKusmierski stated, “But it’s literally a Caliburn in terms of performance, sound, acceleration,” which promptly set off a rapid discussion in the replies over whether front-facing guns (like on the Mordred) are superior to just pulling out your own weapons. Fairly typical gamer discussion.

Since Dodgers obviously asked, one more beg for a crossover: @FanOfLida threw the ultimate question onto CDPR’s plate: “Can we see this in Fortnite?” Listen, stranger things have happened, but we must not give Epic the ideas.

One thing is clear; the new update for Cyberpunk 2077 continues to engage players, earning eddies, debating car stats, or just appreciating car aesthetics. But now, if you’ll excuse me, there is some unfinished business in the River Ward questline.
