Cyberpunk 2077 fans were taken by surprise when CD Projekt Red marked Adam Smasher’s birthday with a special tribute. The company shared a post on the official Cyberpunk 2077 Twitter account, announcing that Smasher was “expecting preem birthday gifts,” prompting a wave of responses from the gaming community.
Along with the announcement, CD Projekt Red provided a downloadable calendar page featuring an image of Smasher, which quickly sparked a range of reactions. Some players expressed frustration, with one user, FSTH000, noting that Smasher shares a birthday with his father. Others took a more humorous approach, like KennyH496600, who pointed out the coincidence, adding that Smasher’s birthday is just eight days before his own.
In typical Cyberpunk 2077 fashion, the online reactions varied greatly. Some fans, like FirecrackerOfNC, jokingly suggested a gift for Smasher, stating, “Only present I can afford to give that borged-up gonk: 12 eddies every six rounds, directly in the cake hole. BANG BANG.” On the other hand, some were less inclined to celebrate. TRettsch made it clear that he would not be offering any congratulations, citing the character’s actions toward Rebecca.
The post also reignited discussions about other updates to the game. Players, including TheGreenGeddes and crabempero42345, asked about new content and requested patches for the PlayStation 5. CD Projekt Red has remained tight-lipped about any future updates, but it’s clear that fans are eagerly awaiting new developments.
The birthday announcement also sparked a wave of memes across social media. One user, indiexanna, joked about gifting Adam Smasher a fork, referencing his notorious line about being “a cut of ckable meat.” Nashyphoto added to the fun by humorously comparing Smasher to a low-budget version of himself, saying he was “the Temu and Wish combined version” of the character.
While opinions on Adam Smasher remain divided, his birthday has become an unexpected highlight within the Cyberpunk 2077 community. Fans are printing the calendar page, sharing gift ideas, and debating whether Smasher even deserves a celebration, with most agreeing that he does not.
As for what’s next, fans are left wondering whether CD Projekt Red has more surprises in store. One thing is clear: the Cyberpunk 2077 community can turn any random announcement into a major event.
