Summary
Night City is a vast, neon metropolis. It’s a city so vast that even three and a half years later, players are discovering its secrets, new and old, for the first time.
Recently, a player ran into an issue with ahostile vending machineflatlining a citizen, and now, players are discovering that there’s a button that canturn the lights outacross the whole ofCyberpunk 2077’sconurbation.
“Turn Out The Lights, The Party’s Over”
The magic button, which was initially discovered during the early stages of the game but overlooked by millions of newer players, can be inconspicuously found on the side of a road in Westbrook.
The small red button is found on the side of a yellow box. The box has neon writing above it, with messages that rotate between “Turn out the lights, the party’s over”, “Baby when the lights go out”, and “Press me after dark!”
Upon being pressed, the button appears to switch the streetlights out across the whole of Night City. Reddit user Aggressive_Seacock, who re-discovered the secret,said they"drove around a bit, and where I was, it was off everywhere", when questioned if it hit the whole of the city.
It comes as no surprise that, given how wild Cyberpunk 2077’s Night City is, none of the citizens react to the fact that there are suddenly no streetlights. Maybe it’s because they’re used to chaos, or maybe it’s because there are so many luminous signs illuminating the streets that, actually, they just didn’t notice.
Cyberpunk 2077, which has now been completed with the release of thePhantom Liberty DLC, has a sequel in the works. DevelopersCD Projekt Redrecently shared advice for anybody looking to get into game development, saying that players should “learn how to mod”, just like the creator of the recent “Taxi Work in Night City” mod.
