Genesys RPG: Android Shadow of the Beanstalk
The second 'world book' for Genesys was just released and it covers Cyberpunk, specifically the Android setting.
A quick browse through the book reveals that some 'grit' was added to the system by making the bulk of your adversaries NOT minions. Mowing through hordes of enemies is going to be a bit less likely in this iteration of the system, with some exceptions.
My first swag at character creation is to port over my Vinnie DelGado, the loudmouth cop, character from Interface Zero.
