Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 will premiere on Netflix on October 20, 2026, after Netflix released a new trailer and teaser images at Anime NYC. The announcement confirmed a 10‑episode animated sequel that continues the Night City setting of the original series.

The series was first announced at Anime Expo 2025 and is presented as a standalone story. Studio Trigger returns to animate the show, with Kai Ikarashi directing, Bartosz Sztybor serving as showrunner, and Masahiko Otsuka handling writing duties.

The trailer introduces four new characters — Roman Carax, Weak “King” Kingsley, D, and Talia Yang — and suggests the narrative follows Carax as he records the downfall of his peers. The footage maintains the series’ distinctive visual style.

Fans anticipate the release, which aims to preserve the kinetic animation and storytelling that earned the 2022 original critical acclaim.
