TRIGGER

Studio Trigger is promoting the October 20, 2026 Netflix launch of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 while selling a memorial book, NIGHT CITY MAGAZINE 2, through its online shop. The studio is also in pre-production on an untitled project directed by Hiroyuki Imaishi and written by Kazuki Nakashima.

Synthesized from 30 Yomimono stories · updated 19h ago

Trigger's 2026 slate is dominated by Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2. The 10-episode standalone season is streaming on Netflix from October 20, directed by Kai Ikarashi, with Ichigo Kanno as character designer and Bartosz Sztybor returning as showrunner, story writer, and producer. The studio has published a trailer and an escape-themed preview, and on October 20 opened orders for NIGHT CITY MAGAZINE 2, a memorial book with a new cover by Kazuki Sugano that collects countdown illustrations and work from 118 production staff. Re-orders for two earlier Edgerunners books run in the same window.

Beyond that sequel, the studio announced at Anime Expo on July 4 that Hiroyuki Imaishi is directing a new project written by Kazuki Nakashima, with Hiromi Wakabayashi attached. No title, story, or release date was given. Delicious in Dungeon Season 2 is set for October 2027.

Trigger marked its 15th anniversary in August with a statement from president Masahiko Otsuka, who said the studio will keep its small-scale, handcrafted production approach. Merchandise around older titles continues: a lottery for raw in-between frame packages across four titles began in September, and SSSS.GRIDMAN and SSSS.DYNAZENON all-night screenings with talk events are scheduled for February and March 2026.
