During Geeked Week’s live event, Netflix
Animation surprised fans by announcing a new collaboration with CD Projekt Red
within the Cyberpunk universe . However, no
concrete details were offered on what form this project will take. The brief
teaser only confirmed a “ return to Night City ,” inviting
followers to stay tuned for more information.
While the announcement generated excitement, it wasn’t
entirely unexpected. Last month, during CD Projekt Red’s latest
earnings call, the company hinted that it “definitely” has more animation
projects planned within the Cyberpunk universe. Co-CEO Michał
Nowakowski commented: “ We’re definitely planning to do more in terms
of animation with Cyberpunk, so I hope that’s enough of an answer. You can
expect more, but that’s all I can say for now .”
This new collaboration between Netflix and CD Projekt
Red is their second joint project following the success of “Cyberpunk:
Edgerunners,” which debuted in September 2022. The animated
series was met with praise from fans and critics alike, rekindling interest in
the Cyberpunk 2077 video game and prompting many to call for a second season.
However, neither Netflix nor CD Projekt Red have
confirmed whether this “return to Night City” will be related to a second
season of Edgerunners. It should be noted that the end of the
first season did not leave many doors open for a continuation, which has led to
speculation that Netflix Animation could be developing an entirely new
story , but set in the same dystopian universe as Cyberpunk.
So far, everything remains a mystery. However,
the possibility of returning to Night City has sparked many theories among
fans, who are waiting for more details about this new project. In
short, although details about this upcoming project are scarce, the excitement
about returning to Night City is still alive, and fans are eager to find out
what surprises Netflix will bring in its new collaboration with CD Projekt Red.
