There might not be a third “Edgerunners” — showrunner names conditions for making a sequel
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
A simple desire to tell a new story in Night City might not be enough.
“Cyberpunk: Edgerunners” could end with Season 2. In an interview with ComicBook, showrunner Bartosz Sztybor said that the anime’s future depends on finding a worthy story and a team capable of bringing it to life.
“You never know. There are still many stories to tell in Night City and beyond. But my approach — and, I think, the approach of all of CD Projekt RED — is that you always need a perfect story and a perfect director, artist, or studio capable of bringing it to life. If the stars align and we can create something of high quality again, then yes. But if there’s no perfect story or a director with a unique voice, it might just be limited to two ‘Edgerunners’.”
Meanwhile, CD Projekt RED continues to develop the Cyberpunk universe. The studio is working on a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077, previously known under the codename Orion. In 2025, the project moved into the pre-production stage. It is possible that the new game will give the anime creators additional fertile ground for stories, although for now Sztybor won’t commit to promising even a third season.
