MetaKey is a drift city located in the Gulf of Mexico, North America. It is also the headquarters of MetaCorp.
History[]
MetaKey was originally founded in 2011 in the Gulf of Mexico as a small flotilla of ships and one oil rig that were hijacked by a large group of "renegade civilian contractors" under the leadership of Jonathan Meta. Four years later, in 2015, MetaCorp was formed. The flotilla would eventually be turned into a mobile artificial island and the headquarters of the corporation/nomad group, becoming a Drift Nation.[1][2]
In 2018, MetaKey was temporally moved over to Tampa in order to salvage the city ruins.
By early 2020, construction of MetaKey was finalized and opened to the public.[1]
By 2077, the island was still around the Gulf of Mexico. Victoria Meta — granddaughter of Jonathan Meta — could be found in the corp headquarters within the city.[3]
Notes[]
- Jackie Welles, under his fabricated identity during The Heist, will mention that his and V's "flight" to Night City was delayed because a cyberpsycho "blew himself to bits" inside the city's airport terminal, as part of their cover for infilitrating Konpeki Plaza.
