Produced in collaboration with animation studio TRIGGER, the ten-episode installment serves as a standalone narrative set within the Night City universe. Rather than continuing the story of previous characters, the series introduces a new cast, including Weak Kingsley—a former cyberpunk legend living without bodily enhancements—and the nomad D, who is on a quest for vengeance. The series focuses on themes of revenge and redemption. A trailer has been released to preview the action-oriented series, which features music by the artist duo DOUDOU. The announcement of the series was part of a broader Netflix animation slate update that included several other highly anticipated titles. In its October 2026 lineup, Netflix has also scheduled ‘The Ramparts of Ice 2’ for October 1, ‘Blue Box 2’ for October 4, and three special episodes of ‘My Happy Marriage’ for October 25. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-07: Netflix announces October 2026 anime lineup including Cyberpunk Edgerunners 2 Netflix announces its October 2026 anime schedule featuring ‘Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2’, while the director of the ‘Sekiro: No Defeat’ anime criticizes a new trailer for revealing cinematic secrets. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/netflix-announces-october-2026-anime-lineup-including-cyberpunk-edgerunners-2 ### 2026-08-24: Netflix announces new anime slate and release dates Netflix unveiled a new animation slate featuring “Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2” and “Sakamoto Days,” while the November release of “Fool Night” faces fan criticism over its all-at-once binge model. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/netflix-announces-new-anime-slate-and-release-dates ### 2026-08-23: Netflix announces release date for Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 The anime series ‘Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2’ is set to premiere on Netflix on October 20, 2026, featuring a new ten-episode standalone story produced by CD Projekt RED and Studio Trigger. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/netflix-announces-release-date-for-cyberpunk-edgerunners-2 ### 2026-08-20: Netflix confirms Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 release date Netflix has announced that Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 will premiere on October 20, 2026.
