Arc System WorksCD Projekt Red There was a brief window where fans of CD Projekt Red and Studio Triggers anime of the year, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, thought theyd never get another look at the 2022 Netflix series that took the world by storm.
Lo and behold, three years later, its back up as if it never left, with a prequel manga from Dark Horse, an anime sequel in the works, and a Blu-ray release coming later this year. In the meantime, gamers and anime fans alike are feasting on a new collab between CD Projekt Red and developer Arc System Works with Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Lucy as a guest fighting game character in Guilty Gear Strive.
io9 spoke with Guilty Gear Strive producer Ken Miyauchi and Cyberpunk: Edgerunners producer Satoru Homma about how the bombastic 2D fighting game landed its first anime collab on August 21. This interview took place before gameplay trailers for Lucy were available to the public.
Isaiah Colbert, io9: This is the first-ever crossover between Guilty Gear and an anime. What made Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Lucy the ideal bridge between those worlds? Was Lucy always considered the prime choice to bring over from the anime, or did the team debate over bringing other characters? Satoru Homma: Both CD Prokekt Red and Arc System Works agreed that out of all the Edgerunners characters, Lucy was an excellent fit for this collaboration.
