In the meantime, readers can explore the stunning looks from the third Witcher installment, enhancements in Tekken 8, Baldur’s Gate 3, and a variety of animated series. Fans who chase rare visuals can enjoy Judy from the Cowboy Bebop anime and a female Doom Slayer inspired by Fate.
Rebecca from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, portrayed by Yana Insomnia

Her spirited, sometimes chaotic charm captivates audiences, and many fans preferred her dynamic presence to other characters like Lucy. It’s no surprise Rebecca has become a cosplay favorite, exemplified by Yana Insomnia’s striking interpretation.
Why was Rebecca chosen? The cosplayer felt a kinship with the character, noting a blend of toughness and tenderness, especially in moments involving David.
