Kai Ikarashi directs, Kanno Ichigo is lead character designer, and the returning team includes Masahiko Otsuka and Hugo Award winner Bartosz Sztybor, who serves as showrunner, story writer and producer. CD PROJEKT RED is the studio behind Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher games. TRIGGER is known for Little Witch Academia, Delicious in Dungeon, Promare and the Gridman Universe films. The [official Edgerunners 2 site](https://www.cyberpunk.net/en/edgerunners2?ref=unknowndivide.com) introduces a new cast. Weak, once known as King, is a veteran edgerunner (Night City's word for a mercenary who takes dangerous jobs) who now has to live without chrome, the cybernetic implants he built his name on. D is a Snake Nation netrunner, a hacker, hunting the killer who wiped out his clan. Roman Carax is a young cinephile chasing real stories in a city that has abandoned film for braindance, the recorded memories people play back like movies. Talia was raised in corporate towers and hardened inside the Maelstrom gang, and her mother Avida, a former jazz singer and Weak's old flame, is now married to a Kang Tao executive. The voices include Kentaro Tone as Weak, Koki Uchiyama as D, Momoka Terasawa as Roman, Akari Kito as Talia and Akemi Okamura as Avida. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2, official trailer.
