Staff at Cyberpunk 2077 studio CD Projekt are forming a union in an effort to represent and provide a voice for “all Polish gamedev workers” while improving industry conditions, after around 9% of the company’s development studio CD Projekt Red were laid off earlier this year.
"F***ing heartbreaking": Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 patch adds Edgerunners easter eggs we aren't emotionally ready for

Cyberpunk 2077 has a new easter egg dedicated to Edgerunner's characters, and we really weren't ready for it.
As the succinct caption on the Reddit post below sums it up as, the entire thing is pretty "fucking heartbreaking." When Cyberpunk 2077's update 2.0 launched yesterday, September 21, it quietly introduced brand new easter eggs dedicated to all the fallen characters from the Edgerunners anime.
If you scan through the four images above, four graffiti murals are dedicated to the cast of Edgerunners. The first is dedicated to protagonist David Martinez, who tragically lost his life in the final episode of the anime series at the hands of Adam Smasher, fighting to give Lucy a chance to escape.
In fact, it seems like the murals are written from the perspective of Lucy herself. The second mural is dedicated to Gloria Martinez, the mother of David, who died in the first episode of the anime when she and David got caught in the middle of a shootout between two rival gangs on a highway.
The third mural is dedicated to three Edgerunners characters: Pilor, Dorio, and Maine, all members of Lucy and David's gang who died in the show's events. The fourth and final mural is a tribute to the beloved Rebecca, the gun-toting lolita who became one of the more memorable Edgerunners characters by the show's end.
Man, what a tribute to the fallen friends of Edgerunners. We were about to write that it's funny there wasn't a tribute to Kiwi, the gang member who betrayed David and company, but according to the comments on the Reddit post, there is a mural dedicated to Kiwi, that appropriately reads, "You taught me to never trust anyone in NC." Yeah, that'll about do it.
Cyberpunk 2077's update 2.0 is out now on all platforms, completely free for everyone. Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, the paid-for expansion starring Idris Elba as a secret government agent, doesn't launch until next week on September 26.

Cyberpunk 2077 patch fixes the game's most frustrating bug and Idris Elba's fashion faux pas
While CD Projekt Red is sadly moving on from Cyberpunk 2077 to focus on the sequel, meaning we won't be getting any more expansions or significant updates, there's still a wee bit of polishing to do. Update 2.0 and Phantom Liberty arrived in a good state, but there's still some room for improvement, which is what patch 2.01 is focused on, squashing some bugs—including a particularly annoying one that's been around for years—and buffing the game's performance, particularly in Dogtown.

A year ago, Netflix earned its place in the Cyberpunk canon
On Sept. 13, 2022, CD Projekt Red, Studio Trigger, and Netflix released Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, an anime series based in the same world as CDPR’s 2020 video game Cyberpunk 2077. The rough initial state of 2077 left potential Edgerunners viewers cautious, and the trailers seemed to promise an edgy, ultraviolent action anime with more in common with Ninja Scroll than Perfect Blue.

Cyberpunk 2077 2.0's new Edgerunners easter eggs just hit me with an existential crisis all over again
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is fantastic, and—like Cyberpunk 2077 itself—it's something I hadn't engaged with until recently. I'm new to the post-corpo war hellscape of this setting, but I figured after sinking about 20 hours into the game itself I might as well check out this anime everyone's been raving about. Spoilers ahead for Edgerunners, obviously.
