Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 hits Netflix on October 20 with a full 10-episode drop
Netflix has confirmed that Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 premieres on October 20, 2026, with all 10 episodes dropping simultaneously worldwide. The announcement came from CD Projekt RED's official press center, alongside a new teaser trailer. If you watched the first season and want to know what's next for Night City, the answer arrives in one go — no weekly wait.
A new story, a new crew
Season 2 is a standalone anthology. David Martinez's arc ended in season 1, and this time the focus shifts to four entirely new characters navigating Night City's brutal streets:
- Weak Kingsley — a veteran mercenary who once went by "the King" - D — a netrunner from a nomad clan called the Snake People, out for revenge after his crew is killed - Roman Carax — a guy who hates braindances, loves old-school cinema, and wants to capture Night City's stories on film - Talia Yang — a high-society woman drawn to chrome and violence
The series is described as a "raw chronicle of redemption and revenge," exploring how people carve out meaning in a city that runs on brutality. That framing carries more weight than typical sequel hype: the first season, released in 2022, genuinely rescued Cyberpunk 2077's reputation at a moment when the game was still recovering from its disastrous launch.
The creative team
Japanese animation studio TRIGGER returns as producer — the same house behind Kill la Kill and Promare. Kai Ikarashi, known for his work on Little Witch Academia, steps up as director in his feature debut. The story is written by Bartosz Sztybor of CD Projekt RED alongside Masahiko Otsuka. Character designs are handled by Ichigo Kanno (Promare), which should give the show a visual punch consistent with TRIGGER's reputation.
What to expect on release day
All 10 episodes land on Netflix on October 20 — no regional stagger, no wait. Whether dubbing and subtitles in your preferred language will be ready at launch hasn't been officially confirmed yet, but Netflix's standard practice for tentpole anime is simultaneous global availability across major languages. Mark the date.
