The only good thing to come from Cyberpunk 2077 gets a new season. Imaishi isn't returning to direct, however Kai Ikarashi worked on a bunch of Trigger stuff and this project looks like it's his promotion to the director's chair. He did episode 6 in S1, which gave us this:

From the promo image it looks like we're following completely new characters? Looks dope

arent the characters from the first season....unavailable?

Without knowing any details. I assume season 2 is gonna be a once again completely self contained story that plays in the universe of 2077 . (Maybe we get some cameos in 1-2 episodes but I wouldnt even bet on it)
