Key Questions Answered
What is Cyberpunk 2077 and why was its launch controversial?
Cyberpunk 2077 is an open-world RPG by CD Projekt Red, released December 2020. Players control V — a mercenary in Night City — who becomes entangled with the digital construct of Johnny Silverhand, voiced by Keanu Reeves, after a botched job. The game shipped in a severely broken state on consoles. CD Projekt Red offered full refunds to anyone who asked, and Sony removed it from the PlayStation Store. After years of patches and the Phantom Liberty expansion (2023), the game rebuilt its reputation and player base.
The sole paid DLC released to date remains Phantom Liberty. CD Projekt Red is working on a Cyberpunk sequel — internally referred to as Project Orion or “Cyberpunk 2” — but it remains in early development.
What is Wuthering Waves and who makes it?
Wuthering Waves is a free-to-play action RPG developed by Kuro Games, not CD Projekt Red. It launched May 2024 on iOS, Android, and PC, later on PlayStation 5. The game surpassed 30 million downloads in its first month and won the Players’ Voice award at The Game Awards 2025. An Xbox Series X/S version with Game Pass support is expected July 2026. The Cyberpunk: Edgerunners crossover is the studio’s first collaboration with a major external IP at this scale.
Is there really a Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Season 2?
Yes — Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 is officially in production. CD Projekt Red and Studio Trigger announced it at Anime Expo 2025 on July 4, 2025. The sequel is a standalone 10-episode story set in Night City with an entirely new cast of characters — it does not continue David Martinez’s story. Writer Bartosz Sztybor and Studio Trigger return. The series streams on Netflix. A first public look is scheduled for the Studio Trigger panel at Anime Expo 2026 on July 3. No release date has been set.
Is the event zone actually Night City from Cyberpunk 2077?
No. Somnoire: Night City is a limited-time event area constructed from Lucy’s memories inside Wuthering Waves’ Somnoire dreamscape. It is styled after Night City’s aesthetic but exists entirely within Solaris-3’s lore framework. The real Night City from Cyberpunk 2077 does not appear. Fans who hoped to explore an accurate Night City in Wuthering Waves noted the distinction, though the visual fidelity to the Edgerunners art direction has been widely praised.
Will there be more Cyberpunk 2077 DLC after Phantom Liberty?
Official content support for Cyberpunk 2077 ended after Update 2.3, released in 2025. No new expansions for the current game have been announced. CD Projekt Red’s current priorities are The Witcher 3 DLC — Songs of the Past, expected 2027 — The Witcher 4, a Witcher 1 remake, and the early-stage Cyberpunk sequel Project Orion. For other major titles on the gaming calendar, see Destiny 2’s Monument of Triumph update.
The Wuthering Waves Version 3.4 update, titled “The Dream Not Dreamed,” was covered above — including the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners crossover event, the arrival of Lucy and Rebecca as 5-star Resonators, the new Somnoire: Night City event zone, and the process for claiming Rebecca without spending on gacha.
The collab was shown at Summer Game Fest 2026 on June 5 and went live June 8. It runs until July 9, 2026. Lucy’s limited banner uses Dreamcatcher Tides; Rebecca is available through the Instant Flashlight login event for players who reach Union Level 10. The status of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 — confirmed at Anime Expo 2025 — and Cyberpunk 2077 post-support were also covered.
