The futuristic universe of Night City gets a new glimpse with the reveal of a new poster for the second season of Cyberpunk: Expendables (Cyberpunk: Edgerunners). The newly released image highlights the character Weak Kingsley and serves as a preview for the long-awaited trailer for the new episodes, scheduled to be released on June 29th.
Understanding the origin and production of Cyberpunk: Expendables
The animated series Cyberpunk: Mercenaries is a collaboration between the renowned CD Projekt Red, creator of the game Cyberpunk 2077, and the acclaimed studio Trigger. Composed of ten episodes in the first season, the production is set in the same scenario as the famous game, but develops a totally original and independent narrative, expanding the rich lore.
The central plot focuses on David Martinez, a young inhabitant of Night City who, after a tragic event in his life, decides to follow the path of a mercenary. The story follows his rise and the challenges he faces as he joins a collective of edgerunners — individuals who live on the fringes of society, employing advanced cyber technology to commit crimes and survive.
Fans can watch the anime exclusively on the Netflix streaming platform, where the first season is now available and the next will be released.
