WayForward portfolio lists 'Gemini', a rollback-driven Cyberpunk: Edgerunners brawler
A former WayForward employee's portfolio includes material for a project codenamed 'Gemini' tied to the Netflix series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. Gemini was planned as a rollback-driven 2.5D beat-'em-up with rollback-safe architecture and online transport integration, indicating online multiplayer. Research and development ran from 2025 into 2026, but the project's current status is unclear. The title would be a small Cyberpunk spin-off while CD Projekt Red focuses on Cyberpunk 2 and The Witcher 4 and as Edgerunners Season 2 arrives this fall.
