Based on CD Project RED’s ‘Cyberpunk 2077,’ the story follows a street kid in a tech-filled and body modification-obsessed city. To survive and with nothing to lose, he chooses to become a mercenary outlaw, also known as an edgerunner.
Heading the series is director Hiroyuki Imaishi (Kill la Kill), screenplay written by Yoshiki Usa and Masahiko Otsuka, and the anime studio of Studio Trigger and CD Projekt Red are the developers.
