Chromebook Plus getting 3D billboard in Times Square with Cyberpunk 2077 promo

Following the announcement in October, Chromebook Plus is heading into its first holiday shopping season, and Google is promoting the gaming aspects in Times Square with a billboard.

This billboard, which goes live on November 18, is a collaboration between Google, Cyberpunk 2077, and Nvidia GeForce Now meant to highlight cloud gaming on the Chromebook Plus.

It’s also meant to “celebrate the newly released spy-thriller expansion Phantom Liberty, as well as the free Update 2.0 to the base game.” In fact, there will be a clue in the billboard as part of an in-game puzzle:

This 3D billboard is something Google previously used to promote Assistant and YouTube Music on Samsung’s Z Flip 4 in 2022.

Besides this physical display in New York, there will be “multiple owned and earned media channels including brand and partner social and YouTube.”

Before the “Plus” devices, “Gaming Chromebooks” were Google’s big hardware push with 120 Hz screens and RGB keyboards. The vast majority of those gaming-focused ChromeOS devices are now part of Chromebook Plus.
