Yes—Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is getting a sequel. CD PROJEKT RED and TRIGGER have announced Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2, a 10-episode standalone anime set in the world of Cyberpunk 2077. Netflix is scheduled to premiere it on October 20, 2026. It has a fresh cast, so it has not been announced as a continuation of David Martinez’s story.

Is Cyberpunk: Edgerunners getting a sequel?

Yes. CD PROJEKT RED announced Edgerunners 2 with animation studio TRIGGER on July 4, 2025. The project is a standalone 10-episode story in the Cyberpunk 2077 universe, described in its announcement as a tale of redemption and revenge. The announcement named Kai Ikarashi as director, Kanno Ichigo as lead character designer, Masahiko Otsuka as a returning collaborator, and Bartosz Sztybor as showrunner, story writer, and producer. CD PROJEKT RED’s production announcement has the original project details.

When does Edgerunners 2 come out, and where can I watch it?

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 is scheduled to premiere on October 20, 2026, exclusively on Netflix, according to CD PROJEKT RED’s August 21, 2026 announcement. The series has 10 episodes. Netflix is the confirmed platform; the announcement does not establish availability by country or require a particular subscription tier.

Will Edgerunners 2 continue David’s story?

It has not been announced as a direct continuation of David Martinez’s story. CD PROJEKT RED describes the series as standalone and says it has a fresh, entirely new cast whose stories intersect across Night City. That does not establish that no character from the first series can appear; the announcement simply does not confirm any such appearance.

How does Edgerunners 2 compare with the original anime?

Series Format and story Production Platform and release
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 10-episode standalone story, announced in 2020 CD PROJEKT RED and TRIGGER; Hiroyuki Imaishi named as director Netflix; the cited announcement does not give a premiere date
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 10-episode standalone story with a fresh cast CD PROJEKT RED and TRIGGER; Kai Ikarashi named as director Netflix exclusive; scheduled for October 20, 2026

The original series was announced by CD PROJEKT RED, TRIGGER, and Netflix on June 25, 2020. The studio said its team had been working on the series since 2018 and described it as a standalone 10-episode story. Its original announcement identifies Imaishi as director.

What are the Edgerunners spin-offs?

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners MADNESS manga

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners MADNESS is an official printed prequel manga about Rebecca and Pilar before they meet David and the others. KADOKAWA announced the Japanese first volume for August 28, 2025; the English collected volume is listed through Dark Horse Comics with a February 24, 2026 release date. Those are announced publication details, not confirmation of current retailer stock or price. KADOKAWA’s announcement describes the prequel and its editions.

Another anime project: what has the studio confirmed?

On March 26, 2025, CD PROJEKT vice president for investor relations Karolina Gnaś said the company was working on “another anime project set in the Cyberpunk 2077 universe,” but was not ready to share specifics. The investor-chat record documents that statement. Because Edgerunners 2 was announced later that July, the March comment alone does not establish whether it referred to this sequel or a separate project. It is not proof of a third anime.

Live-action Cyberpunk project

CD PROJEKT said in an August 29, 2025 investor-chat response that its live-action project with Anonymous Content was “still at a very early stage,” and that projects of this kind typically take a long time. That is the studio’s status report as of that date, not a current production update or a release timetable. The investor-chat record contains the dated comment.
