CD Projekt Red is bringing a piece of Night City into the real world with a life-size replica of the Thermal Katana from Cyberpunk 2077. This release matters to collectors and fans who want to interact with the game's iconic weaponry in a tangible way. The company is offering two distinct versions of the prop, allowing buyers to choose the aesthetic that best fits their collection.
Life-size prop with red LED blade and sound effects available for pre-order
The Thermal Katana is a detailed replica of the weapon used by players in the open-world RPG. It features a red LED blade that lights up during use, adding visual flair to the prop. A built-in sound chip plays combat sound effects when the blade is swung, enhancing the immersive experience for the owner.
Construction of the replica relies on injection-moulded plastic to keep the weight manageable for display or handling. The package includes a dedicated display stand, ensuring the katana can be showcased securely when not in use. The standard length of the prop remains 47 inches, matching the 119cm specification seen in the game.
Buyers can choose between the standard Errata edition and a Valentino edition inspired by the Heywood gang. Both versions are priced at $120 USD, making them accessible for most fans of the franchise. Pre-orders are now live through the official CD Projekt Red Gear Store for those who want to secure a unit early.
The official launch date for the Thermal Katana is scheduled for July 2026. This timeline gives fans ample time to plan their purchases ahead of the release. The replica serves as a concrete piece of merchandise for the Cyberpunk 2077 universe.
