Studio TRIGGER has announced that its TRIGGER Panel at Anime Expo 2026 will feature the first reveal for the studio’s next project. In addition to the new reveal at Anime Expo 2026, Studio TRIGGER will also have an exclusive behind-the-scenes production talk for Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 with director Kai Ikarashi and scriptwriter Masahiko Otsuka, along with production updates for the Delicious in Dungeon anime.
The TRIGGER panel will be held begin at 2:00 p.m. PDT on July 4 at the NOVO. An autograph session will begin two hours later at 4:00 p.m. PDT.
One day prior, the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 Anime Expo 2026 panel will be held on July 3 at 7:30 p.m. PDT from the Crypto.com Arena. The panel will be hosted by Danny Motta and feature director Ikarashi, showrunner Bartosz Sztybor, executive producer Saya Elder, and other special guests.
Although David is dead, Night City lives on, and Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 focuses on a new story with a new cast of characters. Ikarashi directs the series, Kanno Ichigo designs the characters, and Otsuka is the scriptwriter. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 will build off of the world of Night City with an all-new 10-episode standalone story.
The anime’s announcement post describes the series:
“Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 is in production! It presents a new standalone 10-episode story from the world of Cyberpunk 2077— a raw chronicle of redemption and revenge. When the world is blinded by spectacle, what extremes do you have to go to make your story matter?”
This past October, Aniplex of America released the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners anime on a complete Blu-ray disc set in North America. The Blu-ray’s limited edition includes a new jacket illustration, a book of the storyboard of episode 10, a second anniversary poster, and a cel-style sheet.
