Hello and welcome to our list of Frequently Asked Questions for Cyberpunk RED NEXUS, the official digital companion for Cyberpunk RED!
Here you’ll find answers to many of your questions about Cyberpunk RED NEXUS and how to get started.
Thank you for joining us on this journey to Night City, Choom - we’re excited to be your official digital companion!
Q: Is Cyberpunk RED NEXUS affiliated with R.Talsorian Games?
A: Yes! We have officially partnered with R.Talsorian to provide the official digital companion and digital tools for Cyberpunk RED!
Q: What is a NEXUS / What is the Cyberpunk RED NEXUS?
A: A NEXUS is a digital companion with several different components for players and GMs.
- Character Tools. Stylish, powerful tools to build and play your character, allowing you to track them from lifepath to flatline—and everything in between.
- Digital Compendiums. These compendiums are not just about the rules, mechanics, and world of Cyberpunk RED. They have tooltips, cross-linking, and a searchable function so you can get information quickly without having to stop the game. This means you can stay immersed in the game world while easily accessing the information you need.
- Digital Listings. Everything you need in the world of Cyberpunk RED is broken into filterable listings! Streetslang? Got it. Equipment? Yep. Vehicles? Your Nomad is about to be so spoiled. It's also searchable, which helps you quickly find what you need.
- Content Sharing. Grab a Demiplane subscription and share your Cyberpunk RED Nexus titles, along with ALL of your other Demiplane Nexus titles, with up to 24 friends (or frenemies) of your choice.
Our NEXUSes are designed to be versatile, catering to your gaming needs on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices. This adaptability ensures you can enjoy your game sessions wherever you are.
Q: What do we get with these Character Tools?
A: Players and GMs get to enjoy a ton of different digital character tools, including pregenerated characters.
- Character Builder. The Character Builder will walk you through how to create your next character. The benefits of the digital compendium also apply, with tooltips, rules, and mechanics to help you along the way. This allows you to get through character creation quickly but gives you plenty of information and understanding of Night City.
- Character Sheet. This is your Character Sheet! Not only can you check out your character’s stats, but you can roll inside the sheet, and find rules references with the click of a button.
- PDF Export > Print. RED has a PDF Export > Print option for those who would instead print and play with a physical copy. This feature allows you to have a physical copy of your character sheet, which can be useful for some players or for backup during online play.
- Edgerunners Mode. Alongside RED, Demiplane has released a toggle to switch to the Edgerunners rules variant. It's up to you how you’d like to experience the game!
- And you can share your sheet! With a direct link or QR code, quickly connect your sheet to your GM, other players, or your mom when she asks you to explain what a netrunner is.
Q: I just want to try it!
A: You can take the Cyberpunk RED Nexus for a spin right now!
Character Tools are available for you to try out and make your next Edgerunner!
We have a few freebies, like Easy Mode and Toggle’s Temple, that allow you to see why the NEXUS is so powerful.
Q: Can I create characters for other people?
A: Yes! Once you’ve created your character you can click or tap on the menu icon by their name to open the management sidebar. Scroll down to the bottom for sharing options–a QR code or link. Make sure to set the privacy to your desired setting before sending it! Once a user opens a shared character, they can either browse it as a viewer, or create a copy onto their own account.
Q: Do we need a subscription to play in the RED NEXUS?
A: You do not need a subscription to enjoy the benefits of the RED NEXUS. You can create characters in the brand new Character Tools for free using options available in Easy Mode and the current collection of free DLCs Demiplane has to offer. These basic rules also include pregenerated characters to help you start playing at no cost. To access more options for roles, gear, and everything else Night City has to offer, you can purchase full digital rulebooks.
If you want to expand your character creation count of seven active characters or you want to content share your purchases with up to 24 friends (from ANY and ALL Nexuses you own digital books from), you can get a subscription.
Note: If you have a Roll20 Plus or Pro Subscription, you get the Demiplane Subscription automatically!
Q: Is there a Discounted Bundle?
A: You are able to unlock all titles on the RED NEXUS at 25% off in the Cyberpunk RED Ultimate Bundle:
- This bundle will take into account what you’ve already spent on titles included with it, so you will only be charged for what you do not own.
- This bundle will continue to grow. Every new release will go into the bundle and you will get 25% off those titles going forward—forever!
Q: What if I want to share my content with the table?
A: Great question. As long as one person at the table has a Demiplane Subscription (less than $5 a month), they can share content with up to 24 people - making you the hero of this story :)
If you have Roll20 Plus or Pro already, that includes the Demiplane Subscription so next extra steps!
Q: When will we get more releases?
A: Demiplane is working closely with R.Talsorian on catching up to their library. While it will take a bit of time, we will eventually have all of it! We will be prioritizing new releases to release day-and-date with R.Talsorian but will be releasing the backlog as we can.
Q: When will (previously released official book) become available on Cyberpunk RED NEXUS?
A: Demiplane does not provide release dates, but we will make announcements across these forums, as well as our Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Discord when a new title is available to pre-order or purchase.
Q: Do I have to buy the titles again if I bought the PDF or the print version?
A: Demiplane’s NEXUS listings are not the same as a PDF, print, or even VTT version. It is simply not copy and pasting the data from PDF, but instead is a few months of scoping, designing, building, coding, and testing that our team does to enhance the experience of playing Cyberpunk RED. You will find that the RED Nexus titles have cross-linking, tool tips, searchable compendiums, searchable gear listings, and more. When you’re buying a title on Demiplane, you’re buying a completely different format that you haven’t experienced before – much like if you bought only Demiplane titles and bought a print version for the first time.
Q: Can I get a refund?
A: Digital items are not returnable or refundable. See our Terms of Sale for the full details on making purchases on Demiplane.
Q: Where can I provide feedback or ask questions?
A: The best place to provide feedback or ask questions is here in our Forums!
You can also contact our Support team, or visit us on our Discord.
Q: I found a bug!
A: Great job! If you find a bug, please report it to us in our Forums, Demiplane Discord (#red-nexus-discussion), R.Talsorian Discord (#cpr-demiplane-nexus-discussion), or by opening a Support Ticket. Our preem team is here to support you and will ensure it gets to the right people for resolution.
Q: How can I keep up to date on Cyberpunk RED NEXUS news and releases?
A: Excellent question! You can keep up to date on the Cyberpunk RED NEXUS by following Demiplane here on our forums, on our Twitter or BlueSky, by jumping directly into our Discord community, or joining our Office Hours every Tuesday in our Discord. Don’t worry - we won’t be shy about sharing updates as soon as we can!
