Ik this was probably obvious to others but I didn’t even know he had a Motorcycle company until a little while ago. And my brain connected the dots lmao.
Yeah you’re a bit late but it’s not super obvious unless you were following the game from before launch.
Between this and Porche I think CDPR really overestimates the disposable income of the average gamer if this is supposed to be product placement though.

On one hand – definitely plugged, on the other – devs had full access to real working motorcycles as the result: could use designs of the bikes, record stuff like engine sounds, consult with engineers, technicians and drivers, etc.
Probably that’s why bikes are still the most responsive and drivable vehicles in the game (at least – on controller), lol.

Im guessing you didnt watch the Night City Wire episodes back in the day. One of the episodes covered the arch brand of motorcycles. The sound’s organic too.

I still say that the ARCH motorcycles in the game are the far-superior means of driving around in Night City.

Eh, good for him I say. There are worse ways to put an ad in, and making some of your in game motorcycles that are very good is fine. If there were ads in the loading screens or something, I might be more wary.

I was hoping this variation of the Arch was one of the 5 bikes they added, sadly they didn’t. I wish I had a pc lol

It’s okay. Arch bikes in the game aren’t even that good. At least, they’re no Yaiba Kusanagi.
and i would say its absolutely flawlessly done, i cant think out of the top of my head which other game did product placement so well, that it doesnt look out of place

Wonder if it was Keanus or CDPR’s idea
