Wow. The first 24 seconds of this 1 minute teaser are just clips of major spoilers of the ending of the first season. Remember all these characters that died? Let's watch their brains splatter out again. Enjoy the gore!
That's definitely a choice. I guess that's one way to keep people from expecting this to feature more content with the same characters from season 1. Still think it would have been better to title it something different than Edgerunners 2 considering it's not likely to tie in with that story.
I wonder when this is going to be set. Before 2077 makes the most sense. If it's after then they'd have to canonize at least some aspects of one of the game endings.
