The Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon anime spin-off first announced in 2021 finally has a release date. Titled Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, the anime combines ’90s-style animation with the retrofuture cyberpunk aesthetic that served as Blood Dragon’s signature.
Based on the above trailer, the anime will feature Power Ranger lookalikes, syringe-throwing femme fatales, and lots of big guns. Producer Adi Shankar describes the series as a violent dystopian tale in the tradition of Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, albeit with more dark humor. He also called it a spoof and a satire, indicating its comedic tone.
This trailer was revealed as part of Ubisoft Forward, a showcase of the publisher’s biggest games.
