Reviews:

  • User Evdude (Score: 9/10):
    This is absolutely a must watch. You'll probably like it even if you weren't a huge fan of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. It could maybe be seen as a prequel to the show, but it's mostly telling it's own story (and it's first and foremost a showcase of the music anyway). The visual style is seriously impressive, especially for a music video. The story, though obviously simple due to the time constraint, is surprisingly touching and takes a much more serious tone than most of the mainline show. Highly recommend to any fans of the genre or to anyone who simply likes some sweet eye candy.
