- OnePlus has announced the OnePlus 8T Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition phone.
- The device will go on pre-sale from November 9.
OnePlus recently announced the OnePlus 8T in China and there was a surprise announcement at the event that we weren’t expecting. The company has partnered with Polish video game developer CD Projekt Red for a special Cyberpunk 2077 edition of the OnePlus 8T.
OnePlus showed parts of the upcoming OnePlus 8T Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition at its China launch event for the phone. However, it is difficult to know what is special about the phone. The image that OnePlus presented on stage shows a phone with Cyberpunk-style yellow borders. We’re not sure if this is just a graphical representation based on the theme of the next game or if the phone will actually have some yellow edges or edges that light up with the color.
What we do know is that this special Cyberpunk 2077 version of the OnePlus 8T will be available for pre-order starting on November 4. That’s just a few weeks before the game’s release on November 19. OnePlus also posted a teaser video for the phone on its Weibo account. You can check it down here.
This isn’t the first time OnePlus has released a special edition flagship phone. We’ve previously seen the company partner with McLaren, Star Wars, and Marvel to launch phones with featured designs. However, this is the first time OnePlus has teamed up with a gaming studio to get a version of its flagship phone.
During the announcement of the phone, OnePlus CEO Pete Lau said (automatically translated) that its design required a high level of coordination with the CD Projekt Red team. Lau has promised to reveal more details after two weeks.
For what it’s worth, we expect to see some dedicated gaming features in the OnePlus 8T Cyberpunk 2077 edition. It would also make sense for OnePlus to upgrade the phone’s processor to the Snapdragon 865 Plus and / or deliver more RAM or storage to improve performance. Unfortunately, there is still no news from the company on this.
We reached out to OnePlus for more details on the OnePlus 8T Cyberpunk 2077 edition. We will update this article if OnePlus responds to our inquiry. In the meantime, you can check out our review of the OnePlus 8T here.
