Rideable NCART Metro is arriving

CDPR is introducing five Night City Area Rapid Transport metro lines that will cover 19 stations across the city. This will significantly reduce traffic time while moving around and provide players with a different perspective while traversing.

CDPR's blog post stated that this service will open up in-game once V receives a tet from NCART.
