Cyberpunk 2077 Mod Turns the Game Into Superhot

A Cyberpunk 2077 mod turns the game into indie favorite Superhot, where time only moves when the player moves.

Nexus Mods user jackexe shared the Cyberpunk Super Hot Mode mod, which adds a new element to the beloved sci-fi first person role-playing game.

“When you move, time moves. How fast you move determines how fast time moves,” the description reads. “You can use the Cyberpunk engine tweaks to bind the controls to toggle this mode on and off.”

Longtime fans looking for a new way to play Cyberpunk 2077 — on the one year anniversary of its one and only expansion Phantom Liberty launching — could perhaps find some entertainment here. Toggling in and out of the mode for certain battles seems like it would add some new intensity to the game and allow players to perform some particularly dramatic takedowns.

In fact, the gameplay change somewhat recreates a piece of cyberware available to players in Cyberpunk 2077: the Sandevistan. Though this does exist in the game, it’s not available in quite the same flashy way it was shown off in anime Cyberpunk Edgerunners, where protagonist David Martinez would manipulate time to dodge through bullets and take down baddies.

This mod is based on Superhot, a puzzle game which debuted the mechanic of time stopping if the player stops. “Every level in Superhot is an exciting, self-contained, time-bending puzzle that turns typical fast-paced first-person shooter mechanics on their head,” IGN said in our review.
