The initial official trailer for the new Cyberpunk experience within the game world surfaced on the network, presented by CD Projekt RED, the studio behind the acclaimed The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
During Netflix Geeked Week, one of the company’s focused events, the first trailer for the animated series based on the game Cyberpunk 2077 was unveiled. The project, titled Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, comprises ten episodes and is set to expand the universe created by Cyberpunk 2077. The action unfolds in Night City, the same neon-lit metropolis featured in the game, and the trailer gives viewers a glimpse of the city’s atmosphere, its sprawling skyline, and the pulse of its streets. Alongside the city, the trailer highlights a diverse cast of characters and a flurry of high-octane sequences, including vehicle chases and gun battles. The series is brought to life by the creative studio Trigger and is directed by Hiroyuki Imaishi, known for his dynamic animation style and kinetic storytelling.
Netflix describes Cyberpunk: Edgerunners as a ten-episode narrative that follows a street kid striving to survive within Night City, a place where technology and body modifications are pervasive obsessions. In the struggle to endure, the protagonist becomes a hired criminal, navigating a world where power and risk are tightly interwoven. CD Projekt RED, the developers behind Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, serves as the producer for the new animated series. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners was released on Netflix in September 2022 and quickly drew attention for its gritty tone, fast pacing, and bold visual styling. (attribution: Netflix)

Since its launch, the title has become available across multiple platforms, including PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and both Xbox Series S and X. The synergy between the game and the animated series has helped expand the cyberpunk universe, offering fans new storytelling pathways while maintaining the core aesthetic that defined Night City.
