Fri Sep 20 11:42:51 UTC 2024: ## Cyberpunk Universe Expanding: New Animated Series Set in Night City

**Following the massive success of “Cyberpunk: Edgerunners,” Netflix and CD Projekt Red have announced a new animated series set in the Cyberpunk 2077 universe.** While details are scarce, the teaser trailer confirms the action will take place in the vibrant, neon-drenched Night City.

The new series is not a direct sequel to “Edgerunners,” with Studio Trigger confirming they won’t be involved in its production. The animation studio for the upcoming project remains unconfirmed, but it’s likely to feature a new story and characters.

This announcement comes during Netflix’s Geeked Week event, and fans are speculating about the potential impact this new series could have on “Cyberpunk 2077.” The game’s resurgence in popularity following the release of “Edgerunners” and its accompanying update is undeniable, with player counts exceeding 1 million daily and sales reaching 20 million.

“If the new series captures the same level of storytelling, animation quality, and connection to the game’s universe, it could reignite interest in Cyberpunk 2077 once again,” said Jen, a News Writer for Windows Central. The timing of this new project, potentially alongside a new game update or cosmetic items, could further fuel the hype.

More information about the upcoming Cyberpunk animated series is expected soon.
