Netflix is re-teaming with video game developersCD Projekt Redfor another anime title, following the success of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.
It unveiled the news as part of its Geeked Week, the annual event that sees the streamer tease all that’s soon to arrive on the platform like Sakamoto Days,Devil May Cry, and Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft. The announcement came in the form of a short teaser titled ‘Netflix x CDPR x Cyberpunk’, which flashed through each of their respective logos alongside the words, “Return to Night City”. More info, apparently, is coming soon…
Set in the fictional, violent metropolis, Cyberpunk 2077 sees players control V, a mercenary whose identity gets mixed up with that of legendary rockstar and terrorist Johnny Silverhand (voiced by Keanu Reeves) after he comes into contact with a “bio-chip”. As Johnny’s behavior and memories begin overwriting V’s, the two find themselves having to work together to separate and stop V from being wiped out for good.
