"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.

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.
