The cyberpunk genre has been popular ever since Cyberpunk 2077's launch, and No Law might be the next best addition to the dystopian sci-fi club. No Law made serious waves at Gamescom 2026 because of its action-packed FPS gameplay, but what makes this neon-fueled fight fest even more exciting is that it has some serious Deus Ex qualities running through its veins. While the presentation appears to be heavily inspired by Cyberpunk 2077's approach to the subgenre, No Law might actually be better-suited for fans of immersive sims.
It can be hard to find a game that counts as a truly great immersive sim, which makes No Law incredibly intriguing. There are a lot of details that go into crafting immersive sim games, so it's understandably difficult to nail the formula. Games like Deus Ex require wild levels of design complexity, so I can only imagine what a headache it can be to bring this kind of game to life. Developer Neon Giant seems up to the challenge, though, which could make No Law one of the biggest games to keep an out for in 2027.
After No Law's big Gamescom reveal, Game Informer discussed the project with Neon Giant co-founder Tor Frick about what sets it apart from other cyberpunk titles. Games like Cyberpunk 2077 have heavily influenced the modern era of the genre, and that makes it extra challenging for No Law to really stand out in a meaningful way. Cyberpunk world design tends to be fairly similar across all forms of media, but when it comes to video games, gameplay is the key to offering something fresh and compelling.

It sounds like Neon Giant fully understands this, and what Tor Frick had to say about No Law's gameplay makes it clear that the developer is determined to give players the best of both worlds with the option to go through the story guns blazing or be extra methodical with a more immersive playstyle. It's completely up to the player, and that's what made the early days of Deus Ex so successful.
The story of the game is very simple: it's a revenge story about retrieving your thing. That's all you need to know to shoot people in the face, but it's opt-in. If you want a simpler shooting experience, we've got you covered; if you want an immersive sim, that's there, too.
Frick confirmed that NPCs go inside when it rains, which can make it far easier to sneak into secured buildings. Also, many of the shops close at night, making it harder to get more supplies. It's these lifelike elements that make No Law very Deus Ex-inspired, because the world responds in a truly believable way and allows players to approach obstacles and goals however they please. Realistic game worlds can sometimes go overboard and feel too restrictive, but No Law still leaves room for over-the-top John Wick-style playthroughs.
You can never play the game wrong – that's our core tenet. It's all up to you how you experience stuff.
