Cyberpunk 2077’s scrapped lunar DLC, unearthed by dataminer SirMZK, reveals a breathtakingly ambitious vision. Game files expose planned lunar surface maps, including locations like an Exterior Movie Set and a Drug Lab, along with a rover model. The scale was enormous—potentially a quarter the size of Night City, offering a vast, open-world lunar experience far removed from the game's familiar neon-drenched streets.

A key element was the Crystal Palace, an elite space station glimpsed briefly in one of Cyberpunk 2077's endings. Further leaks reveal a zero-gravity bar prototype and a cut quest, 201, connected to the Arasaka storyline. This suggests a complex narrative interwoven with the lunar setting.

While this ambitious space expansion never launched, hope remains. Fans speculate that elements of this lost DLC might reappear in CD Projekt RED's upcoming project, Orion, an expansion of the Cyberpunk universe. However, the studio has yet to confirm any such plans.

The revealed details offer a captivating glimpse into what might have been: a bold expansion of Cyberpunk 2077 into the cosmos, seamlessly blending space exploration with the series’ signature cyberpunk style.
