21 October 2026

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 premiered on Netflix on October 20, 2026, bringing a new story set in the universe of Cyberpunk 2077. The sequel introduces new characters, a renewed animation style, and an intense plot exploring revenge, redemption, and the limits of survival in a city ruled by violence.

What to Expect from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2?

This time, the story follows a new group of mercenaries trying to survive the dangerous streets of Night City.
With a storyline independent of the first season, the anime presents a new perspective on this dystopian universe, where cybernetic enhancements, ambition, and violence are part of everyday life. And just like in the original series, survival may require extreme choices.
The new production features 10 episodes, following characters with their own stories, goals, and conflicts.

A New Crew and a Story of Revenge

The second season does not bring David Martinez back as the protagonist. Instead, the series introduces a new cast and explores other stories unfolding amid the chaos of Night City.
The plot explores themes such as obsession, legacy, family, and redemption, following characters trying to find their place in a society where violence often speaks louder than anything else.
The goal is to expand the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners universe without relying directly on the events of the first season, offering a new entry point for fans of the franchise.

CD PROJEKT RED and Studio TRIGGER Are Back

The new season once again brings together CD PROJEKT RED, responsible for the Cyberpunk 2077 universe, and Japanese animation studio TRIGGER, known for its distinctive animation style.
The series is directed by Kai Ikarashi, while Kanno Ichigo takes on the role of lead character designer. The writing and production team also includes Bartosz Sztybor, who returns to the series' universe, and Masahiko Otsuka.
