Action Animation Drama Science Fiction
In a decaying megastructure where past glories evaporate instantly, Weak, a former titan of the digital frontier, confronts a brutal new reality: he is entirely organic, stripped of every synthetic graft that once forged his myth. Cast adrift in a high-tech epoch that has rendered him obsolete, the broken hero scours the concrete ruins for meaning, hunting for a spark of relevance in a civilization that erased him from memory. Simultaneously, D, a lethal drifter navigating the lawless borders, pursues a bloody mission of retribution. His relentless chase pierces the veil of silence surrounding the ruling syndicate, leading him to uncover illicit archives and suppressed data regarding the elite, secrets destined to remain buried until now.

More About This Film

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Season 2 returns to the neon-soaked streets of Night City in 2026, presenting a standalone narrative that diverges from the tragic romance of the first season. Produced jointly by CD PROJEKT RED and studio Trigger, this ten-episode series is described as a more brutal, dark, and raw chronicle of redemption and revenge. The story shifts focus to a new cast of characters navigating the violent underbelly of the city, exploring themes of corporate corruption, family ties, and the extreme measures individuals take to be remembered in a world blinded by spectacle.

The ensemble cast includes Weak Kingsley, a former legendary 'King' edge runner who has lost his cybernetic enhancements and struggles with his past glory; D, a skilled Netrunner from the Snake Nation seeking vengeance for his clan; Talia Yang, a company-born individual drawn to the Voodoo Boys' culture; and Roman Carax, a young film enthusiast. Their intertwined paths reveal a complex web of betrayal and survival, underscored by a narrative tone that promises to be even grittier than its predecessor.

  • The series was officially announced for production in July 2025, with the premiere date set for October 20, 2026.
  • Director Kai Igarashi and writer Bartosz Sztybor return to helm the project, ensuring continuity in style while introducing fresh storytelling.
  • The original soundtrack features music from composer Tsuneo Ima堀 (Tsuneo Imaibo), alongside tracks by artists such as DOUDOU and Rico Nasty.
  • Voice acting duties are handled by Japanese talents including Koki Uchiyama, Momoiro Clover Z's Hana Sato, and Aki Toyosaki, among others.
