CD Projekt Red berterima kasih kepada 6000 pemirsa Edgerunners 2 karena tidak merusak pertunjukan dalam tampilan opsec yang menakjubkan: 'Terima kasih banyak telah menepati janji Anda dengan benar'

First reported by GamesRadar, CD Projekt Red has thanked thousands of fans for doing something exceedingly rare in today's entertainment space: Not spoiling a hotly anticipated new show even though they got advance access.

6,000 fans showed up to the advance premiere of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 at LA's Crypto.com Arena (lol) as part of Anime Expo 2026, where they got to see the first episode of Studio Trigger's follow-up to its explosively popular 2022 anime hit. And while there are almost certainly descriptions of the plot somewhere out there on the internet, CD Projekt Red was sufficiently satisfied with the lack of spoilers and footage on the World Wide Web.

"So far, the first episode streamed at Anime Expo hasn't leaked," wrote CD Projekt Red's Japanese associate country director, Satoru Homma, on Twitter. "Thank you so much for keeping your promise properly."

CDPR global PR director Radek Grabowski concurred. "We really appreciate everyone’s understanding and for helping us keep the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 episode one screening at Anime Expo spoiler-free by not recording any footage," he wrote. "Let’s all experience it and the rest of the season together when the show launches this fall!"

Edgerunners was at least as much of a phenomenon as the game it was based on, and even a stepped-on cam rip of the second season's first episode with a watermark for a gambling website would prove a hot commodity. If there really isn't one out there on the information superhighway, you gotta respect the Anime Expo attendees' restraint on the matter.

As for the rest of us, we have to wait until the fall to get a load of Edgerunners 2. It seems like it will be worth the wait: I seriously dug Edgerunners 2's first trailer, while its story and character previews tickle the Cyberpunk lore-loving parts of my brain.
