The critically acclaimed Netflix anime series, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, an adaptation of CD Projekt Red`s Cyberpunk 2077, is finally set for a Blu-ray release. This complete series box set is exclusively available for preorder at the Crunchyroll Store for $124 (originally $155). Its release on October 23 marks one of three upcoming Blu-ray launches for Netflix animated shows inspired by video games, arriving shortly before Arcane Season 2`s Steelbook Editions and Castlevania: Complete Series. Notably, Edgerunners stands as the sole Crunchyroll Store exclusive among these releases, with Arcane and Castlevania also available for preorder at major retailers.
About the Blu-ray Release
Co-produced by the renowned animation studio Trigger and Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt Red, the anime first debuted on Netflix in September 2022. The three-disc Blu-ray collection includes all ten episodes in 1080p with its original widescreen aspect ratio. Audio options span English, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, and Spanish, accompanied by various subtitle choices.
While not officially labeled a `limited` or `collector`s` edition, the packaging and included physical extras certainly evoke that premium feel. The Cyberpunk: Edgerunners: Complete Series is presented in an oversized box featuring new artwork by character designer and animation director Yoh Yoshinari. Inside, fans will discover:
- A Special Booklet
- Hiroyuki Imaishi`s Episode 10 Storyboard Booklet
- Three Animation Cel Sheets
- A 2-Year Anniversary Poster
Crunchyroll has not yet announced any specific on-disc bonus features, suggesting that additional video content might be minimal, likely limited to standard anime Blu-ray extras such as trailers and textless openings/closings.
The Impactful Story of Edgerunners
Set within the expansive universe of Cyberpunk 2077, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners centers on David Martinez, a young man whose life takes a drastic turn after a profound personal tragedy. Determined to seize control of his destiny, David navigates Night City`s treacherous criminal underworld, progressively enhancing himself with cybernetic modifications to become a revered legend. However, in a metropolis defined by avarice and disregard for human life, he soon confronts the devastating consequences of his relentless quest for notoriety.
Upon its streaming release, Edgerunners became a phenomenal success, significantly contributing to the narrative of Cyberpunk 2077`s revival. Its distinction largely stems from the stellar talent involved in every facet of its production, from Trigger`s exceptional animation to a renowned English voice cast, including Giancarlo Esposito. The series also boasts a brilliant soundtrack, composed by Akira Yamaoka, celebrated for his work on Silent Hill. This acclaimed score is also available on a stylish vinyl LP, presented in a beautifully illustrated slipcase—a perfect collectible for fans.
Expanding the Edgerunners Universe
Fans can also look forward to other Edgerunners-related media, including an upcoming manga prequel and the official board game, Cyberpunk Edgerunners: Combat Zone, developed by Monster Fight Club and CD Projekt Red. The board game, initially priced at $100 upon its release earlier this year, is now available for $76.
This tabletop game offers an immersive experience, complete with a game board featuring 3D Night City ruins, cards, dice, tokens, rulebooks, and acrylic standees. Designed for fast-paced action, the game eschews traditional rounds or phases, allowing players to incur damage and wounds in real-time, demanding swift and decisive gameplay. It marks Monster Fight Club`s second board game set in the Cyberpunk universe.
Other related tabletop games in the Cyberpunk universe include:
- Cyberpunk 2077: Gangs of Night City – Available for $100 (
$125). An expansion, Families and Outcasts, is also available for $35 ($60). - Cyberpunk Red: Combat Zone – Priced at $87 (
$125). - Cyberpunk: Edgerunners: Combat Zone – Now $76 (
$100).
The Edgerunners manga prequel, priced at $15 and slated for a February 2026 release, delves into the backstory of the fan-favorite character Rebecca. The narrative is penned by Edgerunners screenwriter Bartosz Sztybor, with illustrations by Trigger`s Asano (known for BNA: Brand New Animal), ensuring a high-quality artistic vision.
Netflix Anime: A Trend of Physical Releases
Physical releases for Netflix animated series are uncommon, yet video game adaptations frequently defy this trend. For instance, the Castlevania: Complete Series is set to launch on September 30, available for preorder at $150 (down from $155) through major retailers. Similar to Edgerunners, this premium Castlevania box set includes various collectibles such as a Ouija Game Board, a Tarot Card Deck, and a faux woodgrain collector`s box. Individual seasons of Castlevania (1-4) are already available on Blu-ray, as is Castlevania: Nocturne Season 1.
Arcane, the acclaimed series based on League of Legends, will see its second and final season released in two Limited Edition Steelbooks, mirroring its first season. Distinct from Castlevania and Edgerunners, Arcane is also offered in 4K Blu-ray format. Preorders for Arcane Season 2`s 4K Steelbook Edition are available for $46, and the Blu-ray Steelbook Edition for $43. Fans who missed out on Season 1 can still acquire its Steelbook Editions at significantly reduced prices.
Rounding out the list, all three seasons of Sonic Prime, another Netflix animated series derived from a video game IP, have recently become available on Blu-ray. Fans of Sonic can purchase Sonic Prime: The Complete Series, which includes a collectible steelbook case, for $27 (originally $50).
