Ubisoft today revealed a trailer for Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix. Netflix's upcoming anime is based on the 2013 Blood Dragon expansion for Far Cry 3, but it appears to be at least a tongue-in-cheek remix of Ubisoft's IP and early '90s nostalgia.
Series creator Adi Shankar (producer of Netflix's Castlevania series) introduced the trailer in a campy cyborg outfit befitting the source material. "Seven years ago, I got a call from Ubisoft, offering me the opportunity to adapt one of their very, very, very serious franchises into an anime," Shankar deadpanned. “But instead, I came back to them with a crazy concept inspired by the atmosphere of Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. This concept used Ubisoft's vast library of characters and remixed them into a crazy anime series that would become this love letter to the '90s... or at least how I remembered the '90s.
The series takes place in 1992, but it is an alternate universe where the United States has fallen and been replaced by a nation called Eden with strong Orwellian vibes. "Super soldier Dolph Laserhawk has just been betrayed by the love of his life and locked up in Eden's maximum security prison, Supermaxx," explains Ubisoft. "Now he must lead a team of marginalized rebels on risky covert missions in order to survive."
Shankar describes the series as violent, dystopian fiction in the spirit of the works of Aldous Huxley, as well as a parody, satire, black comedy, love story and "the most philosophically aware show you've seen in a long time." Bobbypills Studio is responsible for the animation.
Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix is scheduled to premiere worldwide on Netflix this fall.
The series takes place in 1992, but it is an alternate universe where the United States has fallen and been replaced by a nation called Eden with strong Orwellian vibes. In the midst of this confusion stands Dolph Laserhawk, a super soldier of unwavering determination, only to be betrayed by the one closest to him. His fate takes a cruel turn when he finds himself imprisoned in the impenetrable fortress known as Supermaxx, a bastion of Eden's power.
In this desperate hour, Dolph must step forward to lead a group of marginalized rebels through treacherous covert missions, whose survival hangs in the balance. He declares her challenge to him, stating that he would rather find his end than submit to Eden's will. However, fate weaves its own tapestry and Dolph eventually succumbs to capture, thrown into the relentless clutches of Supermaxx's unyielding guardian. Within those cold, unfeeling walls, he meets his comrades, each with a unique and invaluable skill. They are assigned missions that turn them into ghosts in the outside world, invisible and unrecognized. The warden, a chilling authority figure, wields the power to determine when and where his possible end will come.
