Press reviews: “There are plenty of cyberpunk games which allow you to use hacking in combat, but few with such immediate, explosive consequences” Rock Paper Shotgun “It feels absolutely badass to use your hacking powers in varied violent ways, and I’m looking forward to causing a lot of damage with them. When I think of hacking in games I think of puzzle mini games, but Deadwire’s hacking focus is so much more than this” Loot Level Chill
