Are you ready to dive headfirst into the heart of Night City and uncover its latest secret? Buckle up, because this tale of discovery is as electrifying as a ride with Johnny Silverhand himself. It’s no secret that Cyberpunk 2077, the neon-soaked RPG from CD Projekt Red, is a treasure trove of hidden references and clever nods. But just when we thought we’d seen it all, a crafty player known as Crushovitz uncovered something that has the community buzzing, and even the devs couldn’t hide their excitement.
Let’s set the scene.
Kicking back in your gaming chair, neon lights flickering in the background, and the main menu of Cyberpunk 2077 glowing on your screen. You’re not diving into the chaos of Night City just yet; you’re simply hovering, perhaps unknowingly, on the brink of discovery. This is where our friend Crushovitz found themselves, a regular player turned digital explorer, who stumbled across something ‘hidden way too well’ – an easter egg so tiny it could slip through the digital cracks unnoticed.

With a bit of patience and perhaps a sprinkle of happenstance, Crushovitz found that if you hover your mouse over the version number long enough, it transforms to display ‘2.0.77.’ For the uninitiated, this might seem like a random assortment of numbers, but to the eagle-eyed Cyberpunk aficionado, it’s a clear nod to the year 2077 – the very setting of this sprawling, cybernetic saga.
I can hear some of you saying, ‘That’s it? That’s the secret?’ But, there’s more to it than meets the eye. This easter egg, seemingly inconsequential at first glance, symbolizes the depth and attention to detail that CD Projekt Red poured into Cyberpunk 2077. It’s a testament to the developers’ dedication, hiding a secret so minute that even they began to wonder if it would ever be discovered.
Paweł Sasko, the associate game director on the next Cyberpunk, couldn’t hide his admiration for the find, tweeting to Crushovitz, ‘Good find, I started to doubt you chooms will ever find it!’ This interaction not only highlights the communal spirit that thrives between developers and players but also showcases the continual unraveling of Night City’s mysteries, even years after the game’s release.
This isn’t Cyberpunk 2077’s first rodeo with easter eggs.
The game is peppered with references to other cultural icons, from Doom to The Witcher 3, and even the beloved Edgerunners. But what makes this discovery particularly special is its subtlety and the fact that it lay hidden in plain sight, on the main menu, a spot visited by millions yet overlooked in its potential to conceal secrets.
While some may shrug at the discovery, others find joy in these small victories of exploration and discovery. It’s these moments, these tiny glimpses into the minds of the creators, that enrich our gaming experience and bring us closer together as a community.
In the vast digital playground of Cyberpunk 2077, where secrets and surprises lurk around every neon-lit corner, this discovery reminds us to look closer, linger a little longer, and appreciate the craft behind our favorite digital worlds. So, next time you’re navigating the main menu, take a moment to explore. Who knows what other secrets are waiting to be uncovered?
As we continue to peel back the layers of Night City, let’s appreciate the hidden gems that lie in wait, celebrating the developers’ creativity and the detective work of players like Crushovitz. After all, in a world where the line between reality and virtuality blurs, it’s these small discoveries that remind us of the human touch behind the pixels and code.
Perhaps, amidst the sprawling metropolis of Cyberpunk 2077, more hidden treasures await, silently challenging us to find them. The quest continues, chooms. Until then, keep your eyes peeled, your cursor ready, and your sense of wonder alive. The next great discovery in Night City might just be a hover away.
