Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 is listed for an India release on Tuesday, October 20, 2026, on Netflix. Anime News Network's October 12 India report confirms the local listing, matching the date already announced by Netflix and CD PROJEKT RED. The new anime is a standalone, 10-episode story with a fresh cast of characters. Exact India upload time and episode rollout remain TBA.
India release details
- Date: October 20, 2026.
- Platform: Netflix in India.
- India release time: TBA. The checked announcements do not give a verified IST upload hour.
- Length: 10 episodes, described by Netflix and CD PROJEKT RED as a standalone story.
- Release pattern: TBA. The episode count does not, by itself, confirm an all-at-once drop.
The worldwide date was announced in August. The newer India-specific listing is the reason for this update: it ties October 20 to Indian Netflix availability rather than relying only on a global promotional date.
A new crew, not a retelling
CD PROJEKT RED and TRIGGER return to Night City with different characters and a story about revenge, redemption and the way people record each other's lives. Netflix describes a fresh group of mercenaries rather than a continuation centred on the first anime's crew.
The official website introduces Weak, a former edgerunner trying to find purpose without his cybernetic enhancements, and D, a netrunner seeking revenge for his clan. Roman Carax wants to document real stories in a city that has moved beyond film, while Talia has grown up between corporate life and Maelstrom's violent culture. Their lives intersect across the ten-episode story.
Who's making it?
Kai Ikarashi directs, with Ichigo Kanno as lead character designer. Bartosz Sztybor and Masahiko Otsuka return to the creative team. The project is a collaboration between CD PROJEKT RED and animation studio TRIGGER.
The cast announced in Japanese and English includes Momoka Terasawa and Valeria Rodriguez as Roman, Akari Kito and Kimoy Lee as Talia, Koki Uchiyama and Nazeeh Tarsha as D, and Kentaro Tone and Clancy Brown as Weak Kingsley. These cast announcements do not establish every audio or subtitle option available in the Indian Netflix player. Hindi and other Indian-language availability remain unverified here.
What still needs confirmation?
No checked source gives an exact India upload hour or confirms the local episode-release pattern. We are not substituting Netflix's usual release habits for a title-specific announcement. The anime's violent setting and themes also make this a different viewing choice from a family-oriented adventure.
