Leaked Details Surface for Cyberpunk 2077: Edgerunners Season 2 Ahead of Official Announcement

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Season 2 kicked off this week on Netflix, and to mark the occasion, CD Projekt Red has rolled out a significant update for Cyberpunk 2077, aiming to draw players back into the vibrant chaos of Night City. While the update isn’t live just yet, details have already leaked ahead of its official launch.

CD Projekt Red has a history of keeping its games alive and thriving. Even though The Witcher 3 debuted over ten years ago, it continues to receive support through patches, a remastered version, and new DLC. Following a challenging launch in late 2020, the team has dedicated considerable effort to improving Cyberpunk 2077, enhancing its gameplay and steadily expanding its community.

The first season of Edgerunners followed the journey of David Martinez, but Season 2 shifts gears entirely, introducing a new cast of characters. Premiering on October 20, it coincides with the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 update, dubbed Cyberpunk 2077 2.5 or the Edgerunners 2 update, set to launch on consoles and PC on October 22—just two days after the anime’s release, giving fans ample time to binge-watch all ten episodes.

More details about the update will be revealed later today, but eager gamers can already find information online. A content creator shared a video that has since been made private, but not before it sparked a wave of discussions among fans.

This update promises a host of exciting features that are sure to entice players to dive back into the game. Console users will finally have access to mods via mod.io, similar to what was offered in The Witcher 3 Remastered. A new perk called “Double Trouble” will be added to the Cool skill tree, enabling dual-wielding for pistols and revolvers. Additionally, music from Edgerunners will be featured on a new in-game radio station, and players can look forward to enhanced customization options for cyberware, along with new hairstyles and clothing for V. There will also be fresh content to explore, including two new side quests.

Whether you’re a fan of Edgerunners or not, the Edgerunners 2 update for Cyberpunk 2077 is definitely worth checking out. Tune in to CD Projekt Red’s livestream on October 21 at 11 a.m. ET for more insights.

The world of Night City continues to expand, and it looks set to delve even deeper into darkness with Edgerunners 2.
