The increase began around June 19, when a 70% discount brought the base game to 2,633 yen on Steam. The anime sequel Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2, set for a fall 2026 Netflix release, has also drawn attention; CD PROJEKT RED Japan has been posting daily character introductions and will premiere a second official teaser on June 30 at 0:30 JST.
