Cyberpunk is a Grimdark genre that revolves around big-ass futuristic cities that look nice from the outside, but like 80% of it is ghettos and run-down industrial sectors. The characters in a cyberpunk are technophiles who are always at least 30% metal and cybernetics/bionics. The most common themes in cyberpunk are Asian-themed corporations who rule everything, small gangs of "wired" thugs who use their built in advantages to mug people, vigilante hackers who stumble across engineered viruses made by authoritarian governments to wipe out people they don't like, and there's at least one scene with a fat guy wearing a VR set having sex with a robot or something.
Notable Cyberpunk traditional games include Shadowrun, Cyberpunk 2020 and Netrunner. Cyberpunk has gotten popular again due to video games, especially Deus Ex 3, but upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 and Net Runner (made by a fa/tg/uy) also look liable to show the genre well in the sphere of computer-aided gaming.
