游戏中的官方简中是“血红的时代”，个人认为“的”有些多余，所以我稍微简化了一下，仅为个人意见，建议大家还是以官翻为准。

血红时代（同时也被称作血红十年）是指2023年8月到21世纪40年代末的时期。名字取自当时世界各地普遍出现的红色天空，而红色天空则是第四次公司战争带来的后果。
The Time of the Red (also known as the Red Decades) was a period from August 2023 to the late 2040s. The name was taken from the red skies, common throughout the world, as an aftereffect of the Fourth Corporate War.

历史
第四次公司战争后，夜之城内核爆的大气粒子，轨道武器打击的残骸，遍及大陆的风暴性大火，常规炸药、战时焚烧和城市及农业区的毁灭，都给世界各地的天空蒙上了一层诡异的红色。在将近两年的时间里，天空被染成了血红色，而在接下来的十年里，从开始的血红色最终褪成了亮红色的日出日落。
这就是血红时代，战后复苏第一年的背景，随着世界人口遭受重创后开始重建他们破碎的城市，但仅有红色天空这一现象消失殆尽。尽管大气影响削弱，血红时代这一名字却深深的烙进了战后幸存者的心里，就像20世纪20年代的“咆哮的二十年代”和20世纪30年代的“大萧条”。
虽然有红色天空和周期性“血雨”（暴风雨会将粒子带出天空，在地上沉积起一层油腻的深红色黏液，使人想起血），世界各地的国家和城市依旧清理起了残存的公司抵抗势力，然后继续他们的生活。
Following the 4th Corporate War, atmospheric particles from the nuclear blast in Night City — as well as debris from orbital weapon strikes, continent-wide firestorms, conventional explosives, and the wartime burning and annihilation of cities and agricultural areas — cast an eerie red pall over skies worldwide. For nearly two years, the skies were tinged a bloody red, which eventually died down to brilliant red sunrises and sunsets throughout the next decade.
Known as the Time of the Red, this would be the backdrop for the first years of the post-War recovery, only fading away as the world's battered populations began to reconstruct their shattered cities. But despite the weakening of the atmospheric effects, the name had stuck among the War's survivors and, much as the 1920s was known as the Roaring Twenties and the 1930s as the Great Depression.
Though the red skies and periodic "blood rains" (caused when rainstorms pulled the crimson particulate out of the skies and deposited it as a greasy crimson slime reminiscent of blood), the cities and nations of the world cleaned up the last pockets of corporate resistance and got on with their lives.
