Cyberpunk 2077 Fans See Eerie Similarity Between Mr Blue Eyes And Taylor Swift Tour’s Mysterious Figure

There aren’t too many times when video games and the pop icon Taylor Swift cross paths, but here we are. Cyberpunk 2077 has had its fair share of celebrity appearances, like Keanu Reeves, Grimes and Hideo Kojima, but this time, the mysterious Mr Blue Eyes from the metropolis of Night City may have (written facetiously) jumped universes and straight into the world of the pop princess.

If you’re not a Taylor fan, then you might be wondering what this is all about. On one of her recent Era Tour’s, a mysterious person was spotted in the top section of Taylor’s concert and now Cyberpunk fans have their conspiracy hats on by likening the strange person to Cyberpunk’s strange figure involved in the politics and life of Night City.

Always Watching…

As the 34-year-old pop star, Taylor Swift, was singing her heart out at her Era’s Tour in Spain recently, a fan noticed a tall, dark shadowy figure standing at the top of the stadium seemingly keeping watch over the crowd and Swift. While conspiracies ran rampant across the internet about who this strange person was in a section apparently blocked off from the general audience, Cyberpunk 2077 put their thinking caps on and came up with only one person it could possibly be.

If you’ve played Cyberpunk 2077, then you may have come across Mr Blue Eyes, although you can complete the entire game without even crossing his path. The mysterious man, named for his extremely blue eyes, can be found during the finale of the Peralez questline where he can be spotted by players standing on a terrace overlooking your conversation with Jefferson Peralez. Although he can be found in a few other incidences in the game, the common assumption is that he is always there, watching…waiting.

When Cyberpunk fans heard about this “mysterious figure” at the Taylor Swift concert – who was more likely to be a member of security in reality – they instantly drew a connection to Mr Blue Eyes due to his creepy appearance, imposing stance and ‘I’m watching everything’ vibe. In the post made by Ameer, Director of Content Strategy at VGT, and who started the whole Mr Blue Eyes reference, the comment section has been going wild at how eerily similar the two mysterious figures are to each other.

“Night Corp got their hands in everything” said one comment. “Mr blue eyes a swifty is confirmed lol” joked another, while another comment suggested the dark figure was “keeping tabs on his fellow rogue AI”.

While most Swifties have been freaked out at the unidentified person in the rafters, Cyberpunk 2077 fans have embraced the strangeness and see it as a curious little side quest to discover. If you’d like to learn more about what influenced the location of Dogtown in Cyberpunk 2077’s Phantom Liberty, the game’s lead quest designer spoke to DualShockers about what influenced this decision.
