Theory Briefing

  • A fan spotted structural parallels between Edgerunners season 2's setup and a major early tragedy in the Cyberpunk 2077 game's first act.
  • The theory suggests the show is deliberately echoing the game to set up a shocking twist rather than a straightforward continuation.
  • If the mirror holds, key characters introduced early in season 2 may not survive past its opening episodes.
