Cyberpunk 2077 Expands Universe with Flexible Endings and Edgerunners Season 2
  • The Cyberpunk 2077 post-game world is intentionally kept flexible rather than fixed to a single canon ending, informed by lore discussions with CD Projekt RED.

  • Edgerunners Season 2 is set roughly a year after the main game and goes its own direction, raising questions about a possible appearance of V.

  • Past canon suggests Arasaka is weakened post-game, but detailed post-game events remain broad to accommodate multiple endings.

  • Season 3 depends on having a strong story and the right creative team; Sztybor says ideas exist but decisions hinge on studio direction, timing, and a compelling concept.

  • Sztybor emphasizes the need for high-quality, non-mediocre work and notes a history of collaboration with Studio Trigger as a basis for future Season 3.

  • Ongoing collaboration with CD Projekt Red and Studio Trigger aims to deliver fresh narratives that expand the world, avoiding simple sequels for both new and longtime fans.

  • CD Projekt’s broader strategy includes potential Cyberpunk 2, a live-action film, and Edgerunners continuations, with openness to Season 3 if a strong story and capable teams are involved.

  • Sztybor describes a franchise approach of standalone, self-sufficient stories across media, with Easter eggs and connections that create a living world without forcing fans to consume everything.

  • The franchise aims to offer complete narratives in each entry—comics, games, or anime—while still embedding interconnected world-building rather than relying on fan-service endings.

  • Studio Trigger reportedly proposed destroying Night City, a request CD Projekt Red declined.

  • The production team consulted the lore team to satisfy different endings and suggest that the state of the world will be hinted at through comics and other media rather than a single canonical outcome.

  • Sztybor indicates the post-game world state may be revealed in future comics and other media instead of an definitive anime ending.
