Four years after the first season premiered and reignited interest in Cyberpunk 2077, CD Projekt RED and Studio Trigger are running it back. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 is confirmed to air this Fall on Netflix, returning to Night City with a new cast of characters. There’s even a new trailer, and based on what little is showcased, this may very well be the City of Dreams “at its most brutal.”
The characters seemingly include a heavily modified assassin-style character who can scale walls and balance on wires; a spiky-haired individual who may be in way over his head; a mature man who’s seemingly on the verge of cyber-psychosis; and a child who’s filming so many different things. To what end?
We’ll have to wait and find out, but between hacked cars crashing into each other, explosions and bloody shootouts, Edgerunners 2 could one-up the original in terms of chaos. The theme “You Can’t Run From Me” by Rico Nasty is also a certified banger.
Thankfully, it seems Netflix isn’t messing with a winning formula, with Edgerunners director Kai Ikarashi and lead designer Kanno Ichio returning. Showrunner and writer Bartosz Sztybor is also back to make the whole world sad once more, and we can’t wait. And in case you want more, a first look is confirmed for Anime Expo 2026 on July 3rd, so stay tuned.
