CD Projekt Red has released the official music video for "Watson," one of the featured tracks from the anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2. Set to a beautiful melody, the video depicts key characters Weak Kingsley and Avida meeting, falling in love, and ultimately parting ways.
The released music video was produced around "Watson," performed by Petite Meller featuring Oslo Green. Serving as the ending theme song for Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2, the video focuses on the past romantic relationship between Weak and Avida, which was not shown in the main series. The production team introduced the video as "a love story caught between chrome and romance."
Weak Kingsley is a legendary edgerunner who enjoyed his prime under the name King. However, by the time of the main story, he lives without chrome, leaving his past glory behind as he searches for a purpose in life. His former lover Avida is a former jazz singer and corporate insider who became the wife of a Kang Tao executive and lives with her daughter Thalia.
The video captures how Weak met Avida back when she was a jazz singer, how they fell in love, and why they ultimately had to separate. The music video also reveals that the crown symbol on the clothing Weak always wears was drawn for him by Avida.
Meanwhile, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 is an anime co-produced by CD Projekt Red and Studio Trigger. Set in Night City, it tells the story of a new cast of characters different from the previous work and the game, with all 10 episodes released on Netflix on October 20. The official music video can be viewed on YouTube.
