The initial two installments of Cybervillage, a Russian series adapted from popular video content, have surfaced on the Birchpunk YouTube channel. The episodes combine to run for fifty-five minutes in total, giving viewers a compact, high-energy window into a sci-fi tale that has sparked conversation online.
Cybervillage follows the journey of Nikolai, a farmer who fights to preserve his home village on a distant Mars settlement. Instead of peaceful farming life, the narrative threads him into a tense clash with the Izhevsk Dynamics Corporation, which is determined to erect a new factory. The conflict pushes Nikolai into a perilous expedition that tests his resolve, resourcefulness, and leadership under pressure.
In the lead role, Sergei Chikhachev brings the central character to life. He is known in gaming circles for voicing the Bloody Baron in The Witcher 3, a credit that underscores the series’ appeal to enthusiasts of strong, character-driven storytelling. The ensemble also features Sergei Burunov, who voices the cleaning robot, adding a layer of humor and humanity to the futuristic setting.
Viewers have responded with appreciation for the chance to watch the first episodes without restrictions. The reception has highlighted a sense of openness and accessibility that many ambitious productions strive to achieve in today’s streaming landscape.
