Cyberpunk 2077 Expands with New Comic Series ‘Chrome’
The world of Night City is expanding through a brand-new comic book series. Cyberpunk 2077 Chrome comic is a four-part series from Dark Horse Comics launching on January 14, 2026. The story introduces four new protagonists modeled after classic game archetypes: a netrunner, a graffiti artist, a rockerboy, and an autotechie. This series explores slasher-horror themes within Night City for the first time. It offers fans fresh stories while they await news on the sequel, Project Orion.
A New Horror-Tinged Adventure in Night City
Written by Doug Wagner with art by Tommaso Bennato, Chrome promises the franchise’s signature dark humor and aesthetic. Each 32-page issue will cost approximately $5 and be available at all major comic retailers. The story delves into a darker, horror-inspired corner of the Cyberpunk universe, a new direction for the franchise’s extended media.
This series follows other successful Dark Horse adaptations like Trauma Team and XOXO. The focus on new, everyday characters provides a different perspective on the mega-city’s endless conflicts. Therefore, it deepens the lore beyond the video game’s central narratives.
Keeping the Universe Alive Between Games
The release provides engaging new content for the community as CD Projekt Red develops Project Orion. Early reviews for the first issue are already beginning to trickle out from advanced readers. The comic will be available both in local shops and through online retailers.
This series demonstrates the enduring appeal and narrative potential of the Cyberpunk 2077 setting. It allows the universe to grow in compelling ways without requiring a massive game development cycle. Ultimately, it’s a perfect pick-up for fans craving more stories from the neon-drenched streets of Night City.
