We’re not far off now from the debut of Studio TRIGGER’s Cyberpunk 2077 anime, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, which looks better than ever in the latest trailer. This one is a special “official NSFW” trailer from Netflix, which is here to show everything that happens when you let director Hiroyuki Imaishi (PROMARE, Kill la Kill) loose in a world created by CD PROJEKT RED.
It definitely lives up to its over-the-top promise, so check out the NSFW preview ahead of the anime’s newly confirmed September 13 premiere date below.
Here’s what TRIGGER said about the project when it was first revealed:
“We at TRIGGER are thrilled to work with CD PROJEKT RED to create a brand-new story set in the world of the highly anticipated Cyberpunk 2077. It’s a huge challenge to adapt this universe into an anime, but we are eager to face it head-on,” said Masahiko Otsuka, CEO, Studio TRIGGER. Director Hiroyuki Imaishi adds, “I’ve always loved cyberpunk as a genre, but always found it difficult to create as an original work. This is why I’m very excited to be working with CD PROJEKT RED on this project. It won’t be easy to please both game and anime fans, but I love a challenge, and I’m looking forward to the production. We’ll do our best to meet and exceed expectations.”
