Origin: U.S. Military-industrial giant, founded in the late 20th century.
After the events of Cyberpunk 2077, Militech emerges as the dominant corporate superpower in the Americas.
With Arasaka banned from most U.S. operations and European corps weakened, Militech rebrands itself as “Defender of Liberty”—a state-corporation hybrid that provides private armies, law enforcement, and military-grade tech to governments and corps alike.
By the 2080s, Militech effectively becomes the American war machine, blurring the line between state and corp.
By 2097, Militech rules Night City outright. The NCPD is a badge, but the real muscle is Militech Enforcement Divisions—urban pacifiers with smartguns and drone support.
They supply weapons, armor, and autonomous war-drones to half the globe, while field-testing the rest in Night City’s urban warzones.
In contrast to Helios Orbital’s luxury lunar dominance, Militech represents brutal terrestrial control.
Their motto has shifted to chilling efficiency:
“Security is Sovereignty.”
Global Arms Monopoly: from street pistols to orbital rail cannons.
Military-Police Integration: they are the law in most megacities.
Mech & Drone Warfare: deploying next-gen autonomous combat platforms.
Neural Combat Rigs: soldiers linked to AI-commanders, making squads fight with machine precision.
“Militech doesn’t ask permission. They don’t need to.”
“You can beat a gang. You can’t beat an army that owns the streets.”
