The tabletop gaming world is witnessing a digital legend returning to his roots. Inspired by CD Projekt Red’s iconic universe, the official Cyberpunk Card Game (Cyberpunk TCG) collected $15.4 million on the Kickstarter platform, becoming the most funded game of all time. The campaign, which went live on March 17, 2026, signaled a record by exceeding the $8 million threshold in just 24 hours. As of March 31, it surpassed Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere RPG project and reached the top.
Goal Achieved in 7 Minutes: A WeirdCo Success The project, signed by WeirdCo, founded by Elliot Cook and Luohan Wei, initially set out with a modest target of $100,000. However, with the intense interest of Cyberpunk fans, this goal was achieved in just seven minutes; In fact, Kickstarter servers experienced short outages during this period. In the blog post published by Kickstarter on Wednesday, it was confirmed that this success is the largest game project not only on the platform itself, but in the history of all crowdfunding platforms.
🔸What is Cyberpunk 2077 Legends of the Night City: Special Packages and Rare Cards Behind the success of the campaign are the packages with extensive content offered to fans. In the project supported by more than 21 thousand backers, average spending amounts are quite high: Street Cred Package ($499): This package was preferred by 4,264 backers; It offers two decks, 108 booster packs and many special content. Night City Legend Package ($7,999): This ultra-luxury package was purchased by 700 loyal fans; Features serial numbered metal cards of iconic characters like Adam Smasher and David Martinez.
Celebration Gift: To celebrate the record, WeirdCo announced that it will gift all donors the “Foil Nova Rare V: Street Kid” card. “Return to Desktop Roots” WeirdCo co-founder Luohan Wei, in his statement at PAX East 2026, stated that they were honored that Cyberpunk’s return to its desktop roots (Cyberpunk 2020 and RED) was met with such enthusiasm. The project is not just a card game, but also a celebration of the entire Cyberpunk oeuvre, from the Edgerunners anime to the main game.
There are still 2 weeks until the end of the campaign and it is a matter of curiosity how high the donation amount will rise. This physical reflection of the cyber future seems to have opened the doors to a new era in the desktop gaming industry.
