Cyberpunk 2077 fans, prepare to dive back into the glittering chaos of Night City. In 2026, the cult universe imagined by CD Projekt RED is preparing to live a new life through new downloadable content, ambitious collaborations and multiple derivative objects, rekindling the flame of the most loyal players.
The recent announcement of DLC planned for 2026 surprised even the most optimistic. While the direct sequel to the game is still awaited, this new expansion will allow players to return to the dark and futuristic universe of Cyberpunk. But that’s just the tip of a much more exciting iceberg. The unexpected collaboration between Cyberpunk: Edgerunners and the game Wuthering Waves promises to make a big splash.
A collaboration with Wuthering Waves in 2026
It is now confirmed: Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, the acclaimed animated series, is coming to the world of Wuthering Waves in 2026. According to WuWa’s 2.3 livestream, the iconic characters David, Lucy and Rebecca will be integrated into the game world. “The new Lahai-Roi zone in Wuthering Waves is the perfect place for some appearances by characters from Night City. The futuristic aesthetic of Lahai-Roi, with its high skyscraper and its advanced technology, isn’t that different from the bustling chaos of Night City. Sure, one is a shiny, advanced utopia, and the other could use a good bath, but Lahai King still seems like the perfect place for David and his gang to make an appearance.”
This type of crossover opens up new perspectives for fans, delighted at the idea of seeing their favorite heroes evolve in new universes. “Seeing some of our favorite Night City characters come to the world of Wuthering Waves and enrich the stories of both franchises is a fascinating prospect.”
An official Cyberpunk 2077 board game
2026 will also mark the launch of Cyberpunk 2077 – The Board Game, a cooperative game for up to 4 players validated by CD Projekt RED. Players will be able to play as V, Judy, Pamam or Jackie in a narrative adventure through Night City. The game promises to further develop the lore, while providing a strategic and immersive experience. A tangible and friendly way to extend the pleasure beyond the screen, in a context where video games are increasingly expanding into other media.
Collectible items from February
CD Projekt RED is also banking on derivative products to revive the hype around its flagship franchise. From February 2026, a keyboard, a mouse and a mouse pad in the colors of the legendary Arasaka corporation, in partnership with Corsair, will be available. These gaming accessories, with a design inspired by the Cyberpunk universe, are aimed at collectors and demanding players alike.
The long-awaited return of Johnny Silverhand?
If there’s one character fans miss, it’s Johnny Silverhand. Although his future in the game remains unclear, there is no shortage of nods. “So, when will Johnny Silverhand return to Fortnite? It’s for a friend I’m asking!”
While the official sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 still seems distant, these multiple projects offer great consolation. “As a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 is still sadly far away, at least we have plenty of Night City-inspired gems waiting for us in 2026.” Between nostalgia and novelty, the universe of Night City has clearly not said its last word.
