CD Projekt RED responds to calls from the community forCyberpunk 2077to get an official cookbook. Games like Bungie’s sci-fi RPGDestinyhave gotten a cookbook, so it wouldn’t be such a huge surprise to seeCyberpunk 2077get a book of recipes of its own.
Cyberpunk 2077Senior Level Designer Miles Tost has taken part in a community question and answer session on the game’s Discord server. While fans had a huge number of questions, with many asking aboutCyberpunk 2077’s genital customization feature, some also wanted to know about official merch plans for the game.

When asked if an officialCyberpunk 2077cookbook would be possible, Tost responded with “f–k yeah” before laughing and suggesting that a fan on YouTube would likely come up with one of their own. After a fan suggested that Tost should just go to the boss and say “I think the community wants a cookbook,” the developer did seem to think it was a good point. “I mean, we did get a chair,” said Tost, talking about theCyberpunk 2077Secretlab chaircollaboration announced back in June.
Months before the game’s release, there are a couple of potential recipes that could make it into aCyberpunk 2077cookbook. One official screenshot for the game shows V’s best friend, Jackie Welles, about to chow down on a bowl of ramen noodles, though a couple of men have their guns drawn on him.
In oneCyberpunk 2077gameplay demo, Jackie can be seen ordering a cocktail based onJohnny Silverhand, the character played by Keanu Reeves. That drink is made of a shot of tequila, a splash of cerveza (the word for “beer” in Spanish), and a chili garnish. In the Discord interview, Tost revealed that the cocktail was designed by CD Projekt RED developers who enjoy cocktails. The developers had suggested that Johnny Silverhand was once given a shot of tequila old-fashioned and didn’t like it, so he decided to put some beer in it.
It’s unclear if an officialCyberpunk 2077cookbook could really happen, but plenty of other games have gotten their own cookbooks. Last year, Blizzard Entertainment’s multiplayer shooterOverwatchalso got its own cookbook, featuring recipes such as an Orisa sundae.
There have also been many other forms ofCyberpunk 2077merch. CD Projekt RED has been selling an expensiveCyberpunk 2077backpack for several months now, despite the game not having been released, so a cookbook could also be popular.
Cyberpunk 2077launches November 19 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One, with PS5, Stadia, and Xbox Series X versions also in development.
