Cyber Knights: Flashpoint Blends the Best of Cyberpunk 2077 and Baldur’s Gate 3

For fans of deep, character-driven RPGs and immersive sci-fi worlds, a new title has emerged
that is a must-play. Trese Brothers Games’ recently released Cyber Knights: Flashpoint has
been drawing comparisons to two of the most beloved RPGs in recent memory, successfully
blending the gritty, neon-soaked streets of Cyberpunk 2077 with the tactical, turn-based combat
and deep storytelling of Baldur’s Gate 3.

Like Cyberpunk 2077, Cyber Knights: Flashpoint drops you into a sprawling, dystopian future.
The world of 2231 is a detailed and dangerous place, where megacorporations rule, technology
has blurred the lines of humanity, and the underworld is a network of backstabbing factions and
shady contacts. You don’t just play as a single protagonist; you lead a crew of mercenaries,
each with their own history, skills, and even cybernetic enhancements.

This is where the Baldur’s Gate 3 influence truly shines. While the setting is pure cyberpunk, the
gameplay is a masterclass in turn-based tactical combat. You’ll engage in tense, gridless battles
where every move matters. The game features a wide array of options, from using
environmental cover to manipulating the turn initiative order. This allows for both loud,
guns-blazing assaults and clever, stealthy infiltrations. The game’s emergent storytelling
systems mean that your choices—both in and out of combat—have consequences, building a
reputation with different factions and shaping the world around you.

The character progression is just as deep as its combat. You can create a unique “Cyber
Knight” with a custom background and a dual-class system that allows for endless build
possibilities. Whether you want to be a stealthy hacker, a heavy-hitting gunslinger, or a
melee-focused brawler, the game gives you the tools to create a squad that fits your playstyle.

Cyber Knights: Flashpoint also features a dynamic “strategy layer” where you manage your
underground base, build influence with criminal contacts, and plan heists. This layer adds a
strategic element, offering a sandbox experience where you can choose your jobs, manage your
resources, and build your own criminal empire. While the game provides scripted story quests,
much of the narrative is emergent, allowing players to create their own stories of corporate
espionage and high-stakes heists.

If you loved the world of Cyberpunk 2077 and found yourself craving the tactical combat and
player freedom of Baldur’s Gate 3, then Cyber Knights: Flashpoint is the game you’ve been
waiting for. It’s a challenging, rewarding RPG that respects player choice and delivers a gritty
cyberpunk experience with a tactical twist.
