  "account": "In the recent interview with Edgerunners showrunner Bartosz Sztybor at the Lucca Comics and Games festival, fans asked about potential Easter eggs, such as a scene with what appears to be female V. Sztybor confirmed that such elements are left for interpretation, but the dialogue in those scenes holds significance. Additionally, fans inquired about an Easter egg involving female V, which Sztybor stated is intentional, but not necessarily a fan service.\n\nThe conversation also touched upon whether there would be a canon ending for Cyberpunk 2077 that would set the stage for Edgerunners 2. Sztybor explained that while there is a general canon information about the state of Arasaka after the game, the show creators are not focused on setting a definitive ending. Instead, they aim to create standalone stories that can be enjoyed without prior knowledge of the game. Sztybor emphasized that the key canon points involve Arasaka being weakened, allowing for various possibilities in the world's state after the game.\n\nAs for a potential Edgerunners 3, Sztybor mentioned that he had been thinking about future seasons and stories, but nothing has been set in stone yet.",
