.hack// series | New game in production (or not)
Since its the series that never ends I figured I'd make a catch-all .hack thread to discuss whatever about the series in. If anyone cares to that is x.x?
Latest News - 10/16 | New game not in development. - 10/15 | New console & handheld game coming. - 10/14 | Guilty Dragon is releasing in Japan for iOS & Android this week. - 10/12 | Chapter 13 of .hack//Bullet posted. Series History Back in January of 2002 the first chapter of .hack//Legend of the Twilight was published in Comptiq magazine. April 2002, .hack//SIGN began airing. June 2002, .hack//Infection was released. 10 years later and the series is amazingly still going despite "being told" its end of days was near! Even more amazing is how little non-canonical material has been released! Eras of "The World" - frägment (2006) The beta created by Harald Hoerwick. Only 1024 people were selected to participate in its testing. Harald's niece had an unusual adventure within it. - R:1 (2008) The first online game released after the public regained access to the network. At its peak there were over 20 million players registered. Lasted the longest of any version thus far. - R:2 (2015) Rising from the ashes of the original came this steampunk inspired setting. Player Killing was rampant while stars rose and fell in the Arena. + Crimson VS (2015) The first spinoff of "The World". This was an online trading card game which eventually made its way to the real world in the form of physical trading cards. - R:X (2020) A version made for portable play, mixing the styles of old and new. Despite the series troubled past it still became a hit. As an ode to the past, designs/models of "legendary characters" were added to the already deep character creation option. - Force ERA (2024) With over 30 classes available this became the deepest version of the game yet. Technology has advanced such that it can be played just fine even from cellphones. + VERSUS: The World (2025) The second spinoff. A closed beta of a yet to be released fighting game based on "The World". ? Armed Conflict (????) Players take on the role of either a Heavy Blade, Twin Blade, or Wavemaster. These three groups are locked in a cold war with one another. Titles - Games Infection Mutation Outbreak Quarantine frägment G.U. Vol.1: Rebirth G.U. Vol.2: Reminisce G.U.

Honestly, before I got into MMO's I played .Hack and loved it. I'm looking to get all of the 4 original ones for the PS2 and beat it because I would like to know how that series ends. I always liked that you could put in a random code and go to a random dungeon and how your save went from each game to the next. Mass Effect wasn't the first game to do that.

I never played a proper mmo but from playing Phantasy Star Online an later Universe I gotta say they nailed the many personalities of people running around playing such games!
