Cyberpunk: Edgerunners
- FSK 16
- 8.3/10 (via IMDb)
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners tells the story of the street kid David Martinez, who tries to survive in a world of technology, body modifications, and corruption. In Night City, a futuristic metropolis of future California, David tries to assert himself with a strong cyberware after a tragic incident – the Sandivistan, which grants him superhuman speed after implantation. He meets new people and becomes part of a group of cyborg mercenaries known as Edgerunners.
His story narrates the constant struggle against a corrupt world, the urge to survive and become stronger while not losing his sanity.
The series adaptation of Cyberpunk 2077 occurs before the events of the game and features different characters from the playable protagonist or protagonist V, yet the setting and atmosphere of the game are still superbly captured and implemented through the animation medium. Nudity, brutality, authentic ruthlessness – with Edgerunners, the world of Cyberpunk remains true to itself.
