This shot can be found on the cover of the Ultimate Edition and the cover of the Vinyl soundtrack edition

It's not Neural Matrix (which is yellow and look completely different), this looks more like a Relic but blue one.

    They changed neural matrix design and just probably didn’t bother changing the poster. There was rumored additional ending that would’ve been way different from the one we got with the tower.

    I’d imagine this is supposed to be the Relic, with her metaphorically holding V’s fate in her hands. I know, the Relic canonically is depicted as glowing red, but perhaps they took the liberty to color the shard’s LEDs cyan for this shot to create a complementary contrast with the red background.

    Could also just be a random shard which is present to help communicate that So Mi is a hacker efficiently. I mean, it’s marketing material after all.

    I wouldn’t entirely exclude though that it’s the contents of the vial she gets from the neural matrix either, or just an earlier rendition of the design.

    It looks like a cyberpunk sushi fork. She’s probably going to eat sushi with it.

    Well, everything related to the Relic is blue except for the chip, so I assume they just made it blue to contrast with the red background.

    She is just looking at a USB drive after the 3rd try of it still not going in.

    It’s the RELIC 2.0, and I’d imagine this promotional poster for the DLC represents herself as the freedom from death that she promised V……..

    LIES!!!! ALL LIEEEESSSSS!!!!!!!

    Future USB type 9.1. She is looking at it trying to figure out the correct way to insert the cable.

    It’s probably just the relic with the colour scheming altered for the different colour palate of this art

    Reminds me of the chip used on the canto deck from the recipie screen so maybe something like that from cynosure

    A digitized memory stick containing her defender’s **balls**.

    Am I the only one who is just that tiny bit bothered that So Mi looks so different in the promotional art and the CG trailer? 😅 not massively but her face and hair are a bit different, I actually prefer her in game look.

    I assume it’s the shard she drops in your drink.
