TL;DR:

  • Directed by Kai Ikarashi (responsible for episode 6 of season one)
  • Standalone story
  • 10 episodes
  • “A raw chronicle of redemption and revenge”
  • “I wasn’t satisfied with the sadness… so I want you to be even more sad now.” - Bartosz Sztybor (writer/producer of both seasons)

They've said that it's a standalone story. I honestly hope there's a bit better pacing and it's a story over 2 seasons perhaps. Would be able to go into more things in depth and more details of characters relationships with one another.

I might be reading too much into this but I think they're going for an anthology feel with the show and if there's ever Cyberpunk Edgerunners 3 it would once again focus on yet another group of characters. That's just how I interpreted Sztybor's words though.

Yeah I'm sure that's what they will do.

But I can still hope for a story told over two seasons.
