Cyberpunk 2077 is always expanding and changing, so let’s dive into all their new and exciting projekts revealed recently.

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners

Cyberpunk 2077 is partnering with Studio Trigger and Netflix to create a new anime series called Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, which follows a group of hackers and mercenaries that learn to survive through intense technological warfare and profiteering. The anime will premiere in 2022.

Cyberpunk 2077: Trauma Team

CD Projekt Red is also teaming with Dark Horse Comics to create a tie-in comic series that will take place, presumably, in Night City. The series will be called Cyberpunk 2077: Trauma Team, and follow Nadia, an assistant emergency medical technician, on a failed rescue mission.

There is no release date for the comic at this time, but the story will be helmed by writer Cullen Bunn and artist Miguel Valderrama.

New Cyberpunk Collectibles

Sideshow has already announced the development of new Cyberpunk 2077 collectibles based on two incredibly popular RPG video game licenses by CD Projekt Red. And while your character will be extremely customizable, some characters within the world will remain consistently iconic — like Johnny Silverhand.
