Beez Entertainment reboots The World! .hack //ROOTS...

As some keen observers may have noticed by now, the London Expo screening guide shows a premiere of the latest aquisition from Beez Entertainment: .hack//ROOTS. 

The latest in the .hack universe, with its predecessors coming out in boxsets over the next 3 months, ROOTS brings us an entirely new cast in a World that isn't quite what it used to be...

In volume 1, having barely finished logging in for his first time into the game known as “The World R: 2”, Haseo is attacked by a PK (Player Killer), a type of player who kills other in-game players for fun or profit. After coming to his aid – the mysterious leader of the “Twilight Brigade”, Ovan reveals Haseo has a particular “gift”. Intrigued, Haseo decides to join Ovan’s Guild and accompany Shino, Tabby and Sakisaka in their quest for a legendary object: The “Key of the Twighlight”.



This object is also coveted by another Guild, the powerful and respected TaN, lead by Naobi – who is monitoring the every move of Ovan. But does this legendary item really exist? More importantly – what is it?

Come to London Expo to hear the surprises we have in store along with the release of .hack//Roots! You won't want to miss it...
