Cyberpunk TCG Beta Bundle: The First Print, 36 Packs, Extremely Limited

The Cyberpunk Trading Card Game's Beta is the first print of Welcome to Night City, and it's the one collectors are chasing. Beta cards carry a Beta symbol, they include art variants the retail print doesn't have, and a Beta booster box holds 36 packs instead of the retail box's 24. We have an extremely limited number of Beta bundles in stock in Dublin, each a full Beta booster box plus a Beta starter deck.

Why the Beta print matters

The Cyberpunk TCG is made by Weird Co. under licence from CD PROJEKT RED, and it launched through Kickstarter, where more than 50,000 backers got their starter decks. The Beta was the first wave of product from that campaign. The retail print of Welcome to Night City followed on 6 November, with Set 2, Edgerunners: Burn Bright, already announced. The publisher has been clear on what sets Beta and retail apart:

• The Beta symbol. Beta starter decks and booster boxes carry a Beta mark that later retail product doesn't have.
• Art variants. The Beta product includes card art variants you won't find in the retail print.
• More packs. A Beta booster box holds 36 packs; the retail box holds 24.

Beta boxes are also hard to get. Many shops limit them to one per customer, and once the first print is gone, the retail print is what's left.

Beta vs retail: same card, different art

Welcome to Night City has 31 Iconic Rares, the set's top chase cards, and each one has a Beta printing and a retail printing. The art isn't always the same. On some Iconics it's a completely different illustration: Beta V is a different V, and Beta Johnny Silverhand is in black and white.

What's in the bundle

• 1 Welcome to Night City Beta booster box: 36 packs of 12 cards (7 commons, 3 uncommons and 2 rare-or-better cards per pack), 432 cards in all.
• 1 Beta box topper: a bonus Nova Rare Legend packed inside the booster box, one of six at random (more below).
• 1 Beta starter deck of your choice: a ready-to-play 40-card deck with 3 Legend cards, 6 dice and 5 cards exclusive to that deck.
  • The Heist (SD01): Night City Mercenaries, the street-level edgerunner side of the city.
  • Embracing Power (SD02): Arasaka, the corporate side.

The Legends in each Beta starter deck

Every deck is built around 3 Legends, the characters you play as. Here they are in their Beta printings:

The starter deck teaches you the game, and the box gives you enough cards to build around it and start a Beta collection in one go.

The Beta box topper: a Nova Rare in every box

Every Beta booster box also has a box topper: one random promo card packed inside the box as a bonus, in addition to the 36 packs. The toppers were unlocked by the Kickstarter's $6M and $8M stretch goals, and there are six of them, numbered β001 to β006: Nova Rare versions of the six starter-deck Legends.

• Different art. The box toppers have new illustrations by Ito (Kirby's Comic Art) and Vincenzo Riccardi, not the starter-deck art. Compare them with the deck versions above.
• Not in packs. Nova Rare is a rarity you can't pull from a booster pack. It comes from box toppers, pre-release kits, events and promotions.
• Random. Each box has one of the six, so you won't know which Legend you've got until you open it.

Who it's for

• Collectors who want the first print, with the Beta symbol and the Beta-only art.
