PHOTO MODE CHALLENGE
EDGERUNNERS 2 UPDATE EDITION

There's no such thing as a quiet day in Night City. Seems something interesting is always unfolding ‘round here. But hey, that’s a good thing — means you'll have dozens of opportunities to capture the moment and join our Photo Mode Challenge for a shot at some killer Cyberpunk prizes.

RULES

Your next gig is waiting! Unleash your creativity with everything the Edgerunners 2 Update has to offer — this edition of our Photo Mode Challenge is all about putting new 2.5 additions to good, visually striking use. Below, you'll find all you need to know for tuning your Kiroshi optics to snap a winning shot.

Here’s what you need to keep in mind if you want to participate:

Do:

  • Use only the in-game Photo Mode to take the screenshot you wish to submit.

  • Use any and all features available in the Photo Mode — no limits here!

  • Make sure your screenshot aligns with the chosen category’s theme.

Do not:

  • Edit the screenshot using any external software beyond flipping or cropping.

  • Submit more than one screenshot per category.

From all the entries submitted in each category, a jury consisting of CD PROJEKT RED team members and selected virtual photographers will pick three winning submissions. The creators of these top submissions will be awarded a set of prizes.

Important: We want as many mercs as possible to rise and become legends. So, keep in mind: while you can submit an entry in each of the two categories, once you’ve claimed a win, you can’t score another.

The complete set of rules and regulations for the contest can be found here.

CYBERPUNK: EDGERUNNERS 2

Anything goes, as long as it's got Edgerunners 2 written all over it.
COLORS OF CYBERWARE

Let your chrome shine! In Night City, cyberware isn't just about what you can do — it's about looking good while doing it. And with new style and color customization options introduced in the Edgerunners 2 Update, there's never been a better time to show off your implants. Go bold, get creative, and capture some preem shots that put your chrome front and center.

Time to play your hand, choom! With the new Cyberpunk TCG frames available in Photo Mode, you've got everything you need to create your very own card art.

3. CAN I PARTICIPATE IN MANY CATEGORIES?

Yes, you can participate in all categories. That said, you will only be able to win one category, even if you have sent in submissions for multiple.

4. WHEN CAN I SUBMIT MY SCREENSHOTS?

The deadline for submissions is November 29, 2026, at 11:59 PM CET.

5. HOW AND WHEN WILL WINNERS BE CHOSEN?

Winners will be chosen by a dedicated Cyberpunk 2077 Photo Mode Challenge jury. We’ll announce the winners on the game’s social media channels as well as on the challenge website within a month of the competition's submissions deadline.

6. WHO WILL BE THE JURY?

The jury consists of select virtual photographers and CD PROJEKT RED employees, including in-game photography, in-engine, art, and storytelling professionals, as well as members of the Community team.

7. WHERE CAN I FIND THE FULL SET OF RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR THE PHOTO MODE CHALLENGE?

The complete set of rules and regulations for the Cyberpunk 2077 Photo Mode Challenge Contest is available here.

8. CAN I SHARE A SCREENSHOT I SUBMITTED INTO THE PHOTO MODE CHALLENGE ON MY SOCIAL MEDIA?

Of course you can!. It is your work of art, after all. :)

9. WILL YOU USE SCREENSHOTS I SUBMITTED TO THE CONTEST LATER IN ANY WAY?

We will be sharing all winning screenshots across Cyberpunk 2077’s social media platforms and on the Photo Mode Challenge website when announcing the results of each challenge. We might also share other entries to highlight the amazing work and creativity of our community.

10. CAN I USE ANY COMMUNITY-CREATED MODS FOR CYBERPUNK 2077 WHEN COMPOSING MY SCREENSHOT? CAN I EDIT THE SCREENSHOT USING ANY GRAPHIC SOFTWARE BEFORE SUBMITTING?

Community-created mods are allowed to be featured in your screenshot, but they shouldn’t be the main focus of your submission and cannot drastically change the game (e.g. by swapping entire character models).
