The lottery for Cyberpunk 2077 merchandise on bilibili, a Chinese video sharing site with a focus on animation, comics, and gaming, is drawing some attention. The centerpiece of this giveaway is a previously unheard of Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 Cyberpunk 2077 Edition graphics card. Nvidia did offer a custom 2080 Ti as part of a number of giveaways earlier in the year, but this is something different. While fans will get exclusive content for buying Cyberpunk 2077 on Steam and GOG, they won’t be taking home anything like this.
Also available as part of this giveaway are a Razer Viper Ultimate mouse, Xbox One controller, a Secretlab gaming chair, and an excellent OnePlus 8T 2077 Edition smartphone that will only be available in China. The draw appears to be quite popular, with the counter on the website showing over 1.2 million people (as of November 30th) who have pre-ordered and registered their entry.
With the bilibili lottery featuring an Nvidia RTX 3080, it is sure to fire up rumors about a proprietary deal with the graphics card maker. Cyberpunk 2077 will not support ray tracing on AMD graphics cards at launch, after CD Projekt Red offered specs for Nvidia cards only. The company saying it will introduce ray tracing for AMD as soon as possible.
Cyberpunk 2077 looks to be a big hit across the world, and with the emerging Chinese market landing a pretty neat giveaway, CD Projekt Red is spreading the love. The developer also looks to support the game long term, with Cyberpunk 2077 DLC plans soon to be revealed. It won’t be long before the game is finally in players’ hands.
Cyberpunk 2077 will be released on December 10th on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
