Hunter x Hunter Is Back — Chapter 411 Drops 29 June

Leave a comment

Hunter x Hunter is back. Yoshihiro Togashi’s legendary manga returns to Weekly Shonen Jump on 29 June 2026 with Chapter 411 — ending an 18-month serialisation break that started after Chapter 410 appeared in December 2024.

HUNTER×HUNTER — The Conspiracy Accelerates — Official Jump Channel teaser for Issue #31 (Japanese)

When and Where to Read Chapter 411

Chapter 411 lands in Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #31 on Monday, 29 June in Japan. For Singapore readers and everyone else in Southeast Asia, Shueisha’s free digital platform Manga Plus will carry it a day earlier — catchable for free from 28 June, with no subscription or region lock required.

Alongside the chapter return is a centre colour spread, celebrating both the serialisation resumption and the release of Volume 39 (“Negotiation”), which hits Japan shelves on 3 July 2026.

The Succession War Picks Up

The official preview from Jump’s editorial team sets the stage: “A royal succession battle surrounded by malice! The battle for the throne intensifies! What will Kurapika and his allies do…?!”

Chapter 411 continues the Succession Contest Arc aboard the enormous Black Whale, where several parallel plotlines are converging simultaneously — Kurapika’s dangerous prince-bodyguard assignment, the Phantom Troupe’s own agenda on the ship, and the scheming Heil-Ly Family all pressing toward a flashpoint at once.

Togashi Has a Deep Bench Ready

The most reassuring detail for fans burned by past hiatuses: Togashi’s backlog is substantial. Manuscripts through Chapter 421 are complete and waiting, with several of those carrying additional colour pages. That is at least ten new chapters already lined up after the comeback issue. For Chapter 420 onward, Togashi has asked fans to watch for timing announcements from the Jump editorial department.

Togashi, who manages a chronic back condition that has repeatedly interrupted the series, offered a brief message with the announcement: “I’m receiving tons of motivation to keep pushing from my wife” — a reference to the support of Naoko Takeuchi (creator of Sailor Moon and Togashi’s partner), as reported in coverage of the return announcement.

Last Words

For Singapore fans, the setup is ideal: Manga Plus is free, fully accessible here, and delivers each chapter the moment it drops — no VPN, no subscription. Mark 28 June in your calendar.

The English-language tankobon of Volume 39 via Viz Media does not yet have a confirmed local release date, but with the manga back on a regular schedule, that announcement should follow. For now, Togashi is delivering — and after 18 months, that is more than enough.

Kenshiro Comes to Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves This June

Leave a comment

South Town just got a lot more dangerous. SNK has officially revealed Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star as the final Season Pass 2 DLC character for Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, arriving this June — and the character trailer released by SNK makes clear that the successor to Hokuto Shinken is every bit as devastating in a fighting game as he is in the manga and anime.

“You Are Already Dead” — Kenshiro Enters the Tournament

The reveal lands at a great time: the all-new Fist of the North Star: HOKUTO NO KEN anime is currently airing, giving both longtime fans and newcomers a reason to care deeply about the man with the seven scars. In City of the Wolves‘s Arcade Mode, Kenshiro enters the King of Fighters tournament alongside Terry, Hokutomaru, and Hotaru to challenge Wolfgang Krauser’s grip on South Town. The EOST (Episodes of South Town) solo RPG mode goes a step further, sending Kenshiro to investigate a mysterious miasma spreading through the city — which means full interactions with the CotW cast in a story context.

How Kenshiro Plays

Kenshiro is designed around technical depth. His toolkit centres on fast, hard-hitting strikes that build into channeling point activations and deliberate status changes, rewarding players who can manage resources mid-combo. SNK describes him as having impressive combo routes that can leave opponents with no answer once he gets going — a faithful translation of Hokuto Shinken’s philosophy of exploiting hidden pressure points. He is voiced by Clayton Alexander in English and Shunsuke Takeuchi in Japanese, both returning from recent Fist of the North Star projects.

How to Get Kenshiro

Kenshiro is included in Season Pass 2 (USD $19.99, which covers him plus five other Season 2 characters — SGD pricing to be confirmed on PSN Singapore and Steam). If you have not picked up the base game yet, the Legend Edition bundles the full game with both season passes for USD $49.99, and SNK currently has it on a mid-year sale at USD $29.99 — that is 40% off. The game is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and the Epic Games Store.

Try Kenshiro at EVO 2026 Before He Goes Live

If you happen to be heading to Las Vegas for EVO 2026 (June 26–28), SNK will have a playable Kenshiro demo at their booth — giving competitors and spectators a hands-on session before his wider release. For the Singapore community who will be watching EVO brackets and pools online, this is the first live look at how he performs in tournament conditions.

Last words

For Singapore fighting game fans, Kenshiro’s arrival in City of the Wolves is one of the more exciting crossover DLC drops in recent memory. The game has been quietly building one of the best rosters in the genre since launch, and stacking a Shōnen Jump icon like Kenshiro — right as his anime is bringing Fist of the North Star back into the conversation — is a smart pull. If you want a refresher on the source material before he drops, we covered the new Fist of the North Star anime earlier this week. The exact in-June release date for the DLC is yet to be confirmed by SNK; keep an eye on their official channels for the launch window announcement.

BLEACH: The Calamity — 25 July Premiere and Two New Themes

Leave a comment

The date is finally locked in. BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War — The Calamity premieres on TV Tokyo at 11:00 PM JST on Saturday, 25 July 2026 — and today’s announcement also confirms two brand-new theme songs, chosen with direct input from series creator Tite Kubo.

Official Trailer | BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War Final Part – The Calamity | INTL SUBS — via vizmedia on YouTube

The Date BLEACH Fans Have Been Waiting For

The Calamity is Part 4 — and the final part — of the Thousand-Year Blood War anime adaptation, taking the story to Yhwach’s ultimate confrontation with Ichigo and crew. Studio Pierrot returns under chief series director Tomohisa Taguchi and director Hikaru Murata. The key visual puts Ichigo front and centre in his Horn of Salvation form, the definitive fusion of his Soul Reaper, Hollow, and Quincy powers — a visual shorthand for just how much is riding on this final cour.

The July 25 TV premiere had been listed as TBC for months. That question is now answered.

Two New Theme Songs — and Tite Kubo Picked Both

The opening theme is “I-BULL” performed by jo0ji. The ending theme is “Rasen” (Spiral) performed by singer-songwriter 9Lana. According to Anime News Network’s coverage of today’s announcement, Kubo personally listened to and selected the theme songs for The Calamity — a hands-on involvement that also extends to checking storyboards, production graphics, and settings throughout the final arc. For a series that has always used music as emotional punctuation, knowing the creator himself signed off on these picks carries real weight.

Catch the First Three Episodes Early — Theatrical Screenings

Before the TV broadcast begins, Fathom Entertainment and Viz Media are screening the first three episodes of The Calamity in U.S. theatres from 25–29 June 2026, in both Japanese-with-subtitles and English dub versions, including an exclusive behind-the-scenes conversation with Kubo, Taguchi, and Murata. UK fans are getting their own theatrical run on 26 June, as confirmed by Anime News Network. Singapore cinema screenings for The Calamity have not been announced at the time of writing — watch for local news closer to launch.

Where Singapore Fans Can Watch BLEACH: The Calamity

The first three parts of Thousand-Year Blood War streamed on Disney+ in Singapore, and The Calamity follows the same international distribution. Check your Disney+ app for a Singapore listing around the 25 July premiere date — a simulcast or same-week stream is the expectation based on previous parts. Exact local start times for Southeast Asia have not been officially confirmed yet; keep an eye on Disney+ Singapore’s schedule. More anime news on GameTrader

Last words

Thirteen years after the manga ended and two years into the most visually ambitious arc BLEACH has ever put on screen, the final curtain is drawing near. For Singapore fans who have been with the Thousand-Year Blood War adaptation since its 2022 launch, 25 July is the date to circle. With Tite Kubo personally hand-picking the soundtrack and the Horn of Salvation visual signalling the absolute endgame, The Calamity looks set to give BLEACH the send-off it deserves.

STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT Gets Release Dates and a New Dark Route

Leave a comment

Okabe Rintaro is back. STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT is not a remaster or a port — it is a complete reimagining of the landmark 2009 visual novel from MAGES., rebuilt from scratch for modern hardware, and it now has firm global release dates alongside a brand-new story route that veteran series fans have never experienced.

STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT – Gameplay & Teaser Trailer | Coming 2026 — via Spike Chunsoft, Inc. on YouTube

Not a remaster — a full rebuild

STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT starts from the foundation of STEINS;GATE ELITE, but everything you will see and hear has been replaced. Character artwork, backgrounds, and event images are completely redrawn — the total event image count has roughly doubled, and backgrounds have increased by around 20%. All voice acting has been re-recorded with the returning cast, and composer Takeshi Abo has remade the entire soundtrack from scratch. The base story itself has also been refined: tighter pacing, new dialogue, and an expanded word count, aimed at both newcomers and players returning to Akihabara for the first time in years.

MAGES.’s E-mote system is used throughout for character animations, giving Okabe and the cast vivid real-time expressions and natural movement — a meaningful step up from the static sprite art of the 2009 original.

The Gamma Worldline: a brutal new story

The biggest addition in RE:BOOT is the Gamma Worldline, an entirely new story route that does not appear in the original game or in STEINS;GATE ELITE. In this timeline, Okabe’s alter-ego Hououin Kyouma never came to exist. There is no completed time machine, and D-Mails — the messages capable of reaching the past — cannot be sent. Stripped of the persona that drives everything in the main route, Okabe is forced to work alongside Moeka Kiryu and confronts loneliness and despair in a Akihabara that has no use for a self-styled mad scientist.

A new trailer released in June 2026 by Spike Chunsoft previews the Gamma Worldline, and the tone is deliberately dark. Whether it connects into the established worldline structure or stands as its own contained narrative has not been confirmed ahead of release.

Release dates and platforms

Global release dates for STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT are confirmed on the official site:

  • Xbox Series X|S and Steam: 20 August 2026
  • Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 5: 29 October 2026

Physical editions are limited to Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, and PS5. Pre-orders are open now across all platforms.

Last words

STEINS;GATE has always had a passionate following in Singapore, and RE:BOOT arriving on every platform in the local ecosystem — PS5, Switch 2, Switch, Xbox, and Steam — with a simultaneous Western release means no waiting on a localisation window. If you have never played the original, this is shaping up to be the definitive entry point. If you have, the Gamma Worldline is reason enough to return. Keep an eye on our game news section as both the August and October dates draw closer.

Mika Nakashima Is Playing Singapore on 17 July 2026

Leave a comment

The voice of Nana Osaki. The singer of Darling in the FranXX‘s unforgettable opening theme. Mika Nakashima is bringing her Asia Tour 2026 to Singapore, and she plays The Star Theatre on 17 July 2026. If you’ve been sleeping on this, now is the time to act — tickets are already on sale via SISTIC.

Who Is Mika Nakashima?

If you’ve spent any time in the anime world over the past two decades, you’ve already heard Mika Nakashima — you may just not have known her name. Born in Kyoto in 1983, she debuted as a singer in 2002 and quickly became one of Japan’s most recognisable voices.

For Singapore fans, two songs likely stand out most. The first is “KISS OF DEATH” (produced by HYDE), the electrifying opening theme for Darling in the FranXX (2018, A-1 Pictures / TRIGGER), which has racked up over 45 million streams on YouTube alone. The second is her role as Nana Osaki in the beloved 2006 anime series NANA — she not only voiced the punk-rock icon but performed in character as the frontwoman of fictional band BLAST, delivering songs like “GLAMOROUS SKY” that became inseparable from the show’s identity.

Outside of anime, she is perhaps best known for “Yuki no Hana” (2003), her debut winter ballad that sold millions and spawned hit covers across Hong Kong, China, South Korea, and Singapore.

KISS OF DEATH（Produced by HYDE） — via Mika Nakashima on YouTube

What to Expect at The Star Theatre

The Singapore date marks a significant milestone: Mika Nakashima is celebrating her 25th debut anniversary on this tour, and the production reflects that. Audiences can expect a full band backed by live string arrangements, covering her iconic classics alongside more recent works. The set runs approximately 120 minutes and will be performed in Japanese.

The tour has already made stops across Asia — Bangkok, Taipei, and Kuala Lumpur came earlier in the year — before finishing in Osaka and Tokyo. Singapore is part of the final international leg, and the SISTIC listing confirms it is an intimate, high-production show.

Tickets and How to Book

Tickets are available now through SISTIC (online or +65 6636 0055). Pricing runs from S$128 to S$328, depending on seating category. The concert is presented by Red Spade Entertainment.

  • Date: Friday, 17 July 2026
  • Time: 8:00 PM (doors 6:30 PM)
  • Venue: The Star Theatre, The Star Performing Arts Centre, 1 Vista Exchange Green, Singapore 138617
  • Tickets: S$128 – S$328 via SISTIC

Last words

Singapore has always had a deep connection to Japanese pop and anime culture, and Mika Nakashima is one of those artists whose voice is woven into that history. Whether you grew up with NANA, were glued to Darling in the FranXX, or simply know “Yuki no Hana” by heart — this is a rare chance to hear those songs performed live, with a full band, in a city that truly gets it.

BLEACH: The Calamity — Final Arc Premieres July 2026

Leave a comment

The end is finally here. BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War — The Calamity, the fourth and final part of Pierrot’s landmark BLEACH adaptation, has its Japan advance theatrical run today, 21 June — three episodes on the big screen before a full TV premiere in July 2026 on TV Tokyo. Singapore fans, your Disney+ account is all you need.

Official Trailer | BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War Final Part — The Calamity | INTL SUBS — via VIZ Media on YouTube

What Is BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War — The Calamity?

The Calamity (禍進譚, Kashintан) is the fourth and concluding chapter of the Thousand-Year Blood War arc — the grand final showdown between Ichigo Kurosaki and the Quincy King, Yhwach. If The Conflict left you breathless, The Calamity is where it all pays off.

Studio Pierrot produces the series under chief series director Tomohisa Taguchi and director Hikaru Murata. Creator Tite Kubo has remained closely involved throughout the production run. The Calamity picks up the explosive threads of The Conflict and drives them through to the manga’s conclusion.

A quick recap of the parts so far: The Blood Warfare (Part 1, October 2022), The Separation (Part 2, 2023), The Conflict (Part 3, 2024). The Calamity completes the set — and closes the chapter on one of anime’s most ambitious comeback arcs.

Japan Advance Screening — Today, 21 June

Japanese fans are getting an exclusive one-day-only theatrical screening of Episodes 1–3 of The Calamity today. Participating cinemas include Shinjuku Balto 9, United Cinemas Aqua City Odaiba, Sapporo Cinema Frontier, Midland Square Cinema, T-Joy Umeda, and T-Joy Hakata, among others. Tickets are priced at ¥3,500.

A special cast premiere event takes place at United Cinemas Aqua City Odaiba at 14:00 and 16:35 showings (the latter reserved for Klub Outside fan club members). Live-viewing broadcasts of the stage greetings are streaming at 29 cinemas nationwide. Attendees receive an exclusive original illustration card set (3 cards) as a commemorative gift.

Overseas Screenings This Week

If you happen to be in the US this week, Fathom Events and Viz Media are bringing Episodes 1–3 to American theatres from 25–29 June — both Japanese subtitled and English dubbed. The screenings include an exclusive behind-the-scenes conversation with creator Tite Kubo and directors Tomohisa Taguchi and Hikaru Murata, making it a proper event for fans.

UK cinema screenings are confirmed for 26 June as well. No Singapore theatrical screening has been announced as of this writing.

When and Where to Watch in Singapore

The regular TV broadcast kicks off in July 2026 on TV Tokyo (exact premiere date to be confirmed). For Singapore fans, all three previous parts of Thousand-Year Blood War were available on Disney+, and The Calamity is confirmed for Disney+ internationally. That means Singapore fans should be able to stream it from launch — watch your Disney+ app for the exact date closer to July.

Ani-One Asia, which streams anime across Southeast Asia, is also expected to carry the series in some markets (to be confirmed for Singapore specifically).

Last Words

BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War has been one of the best anime comebacks in recent memory — and The Calamity is the finale Singapore fans have been waiting for since 2022. The advance screening buzz coming out of Japan today suggests Pierrot has saved the best for last. Mark July on your Disney+ calendar and get ready. Ichigo vs Yhwach, one last time.

Re:ZERO Season 4 Part 2 — The Recapture Arc Premieres 12 August

Leave a comment

The second half of Re:ZERO − Starting Life in Another World Season 4 has a name, a release date, and a key visual: The Recapture Arc runs for eight episodes and premieres on 12 August 2026. Crunchyroll will stream it outside Japan, so Singapore subscribers are locked in for day-one simulcast.

Re:ZERO Season 4 The Recapture Arc — key visual

The Loss Arc Wraps — 19 Episodes in Two Parts

Season 4 is structured across 19 episodes split into two arcs. Part 1 — the “Loss Arc” — ran for 11 episodes and concluded on 17 June 2026, closing out one of the most gruelling stretches in the series’ run. Without going into spoilers: it delivers exactly what its name promises. WHITE FOX is animating the season, with Masahiro Shinohara directing.

Part 2, the Recapture Arc, picks up directly from those events. Story details are deliberately sparse on the official side, which we will respect here — if you haven’t finished the Loss Arc yet, now is the time to catch up before August.

Emilia’s Song Returns: “Stay Alive ~Regain~”

Alongside the new key visual, the production released a special studio performance video for “Stay Alive ~Regain~” — a rearrangement of the iconic Season 1 ending theme. It is performed by Rie Takahashi in character as Emilia, making this the first time she has performed as the character since Season 1. Given everything that happens in the Loss Arc, the timing is not a coincidence. The track is available now on digital music platforms, with music production by KADOKAWA.

Episode 1 Screens at Anime Expo 2026 on 3 July

Before the August broadcast, the Recapture Arc’s first episode gets an early screening at Anime Expo 2026 in Los Angeles on 3 July, as part of KADOKAWA’s 10th Anniversary Panel — the same event celebrating KonoSuba and Bungo Stray Dogs. Singapore fans making the trip or following the event online will get their first look ahead of the general premiere.

Last words

Re:ZERO Season 4 is already shaping up as the most emotionally ambitious arc the series has tackled, and the Recapture Arc title alone raises the stakes for what comes next. If you have been sleeping on this season, the Loss Arc is fully available on Crunchyroll right now — catch up before 12 August. For more anime news and coverage, check our Manga Anime section.

Fall in Love, You False Angels: MAPPA Confirms 2027 Anime

Leave a comment

When you think of MAPPA, shojo romance probably isn’t the first thing that springs to mind — but the studio behind Jujutsu Kaisen, Chainsaw Man, and Dorohedoro just slipped a very different project onto its 2027 slate. At the MAPPA 15th Anniversary Lineup Announcement Event held on 19 June, the studio confirmed it is producing the TV anime adaptation of Fall in Love, You False Angels (恋せよまやかし天使ども / Koi Seyo Mayakashi Tenshi-domo) — the Kodansha Manga Award-winning shojo series by Coco Uzuki — along with a first teaser PV and visual.

TV Anime “Fall in Love, You False Angels” Teaser PV — via アニプレックス チャンネル on YouTube

What Is Fall in Love, You False Angels?

On the surface, Otogi Katsura is everything a high school student should be — graceful, beautiful, and admired without exception. Behind that polished image, however, she is calculating, ruthless, and brutally sharp-tongued. When she accidentally lets her real self slip in front of classmate Toki Ninomae — who looks just as picture-perfect as she does — he doesn’t recoil. Instead, he reveals his own hidden side and proposes they become “partners in crime.” The story of two beautiful liars who can finally drop their masks around each other begins.

The source manga has been running in Kodansha’s Monthly Dessert magazine since April 2023. Its momentum has been remarkable: over 2.25 million copies are in circulation in Japan, and it claimed the top prize in the shojo category at the 49th Kodansha Manga Award in 2025. An English edition is published by Kodansha USA, so Singapore fans who want to get ahead of the anime — strongly recommended — already have a way in.

Fall in Love, You False Angels anime teaser visual — MAPPA 2027

The Creative Team Behind It

MAPPA has assembled a dedicated staff for the adaptation. Yasutomo Okamoto directs, with series composition by Yohei Yamazaki. Mariko Oka is on character design duty, and Takumi Hashimoto serves as art director. Aniplex is attached as distributor — the same setup that has powered many of MAPPA’s biggest recent hits — which bodes well for production resources and international reach.

No voice cast has been officially named yet, though the teaser PV does include the voice of lead character Otogi Katsura, building anticipation for a full cast reveal down the line. Follow the series’ official X account at @koidomo_anime for updates.

When Is It Coming?

The TV anime is slated for 2027, with no specific season or broadcast channel confirmed at this stage. Southeast Asian streaming rights have not been announced, but an Aniplex-backed MAPPA title with this level of manga pedigree would be a natural fit for Crunchyroll’s regional lineup — expect details to surface closer to the Japanese broadcast date. We will keep this page updated as the air date and cast are confirmed.

Last Words

Singapore fans who pored over MAPPA’s 15th anniversary slate for updates on JJK and Chainsaw Man might have scrolled past this one — but Fall in Love, You False Angels is worth adding to the 2027 watchlist early. A 2.25-million-copy run, a Kodansha Manga Award win, and MAPPA behind the camera is a very solid foundation. If you enjoy shows where characters hide layers of complexity behind a perfect exterior — think Kaguya-sama territory, with its own distinct flavour — this one has your name on it. Keep an eye on our Manga & Anime coverage for cast reveals and broadcast news as the year progresses.

Attack on Titan 3 Gets MAPPA Opening, Out July 1

Leave a comment

Koei Tecmo and Omega Force’s Attack on Titan 3 launches on 1 July 2026 across PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam — and a fresh announcement from MAPPA’s 15th anniversary presentation on 19 June adds one more reason to be hyped: MAPPA, the studio that animated Attack on Titan: The Final Season, will produce the game’s opening animation.

Attack on Titan 3 – Official Release Date Trailer — via IGN on YouTube

MAPPA Steps In for the Opening

During MAPPA’s 15th anniversary showcase, the studio confirmed it will handle the animated opening sequence for Attack on Titan 3. One catch: the opening will be delivered via a post-launch update rather than shipping on day one. Still, the creative continuity is significant — MAPPA helmed the anime’s beloved final arc, and bringing that visual identity into the game’s opening is a meaningful touch for fans.

The 15th anniversary event also teased other upcoming MAPPA productions, including new Chainsaw Man and Jujutsu Kaisen content, signalling a busy second half of 2026 for the studio.

The Full Story, Finally in One Game

Developed by Omega Force and published by Koei Tecmo, Attack on Titan 3 is the franchise’s first video game entry in roughly seven years. It sets out to cover Hajime Isayama’s complete story — from the fall of Wall Maria right through to the final battle — all inside a single title, something neither of the two previous Omega Force AOT games managed.

Beyond the story adaptation, the game adds original lore and narrative content created specifically for this entry. The 3D Maneuver Gear combat system has been overhauled, and for the first time in the game series players will be able to control the Nine Titans directly.

Platforms, Launch Window, and What to Expect on July 1

Attack on Titan 3 releases on 1 July 2026 for PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam. Text is available in English, Japanese, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and Korean — handy for SEA players — with Japanese-only audio. SGD pricing had not been officially confirmed at time of writing; check the PlayStation Store, Nintendo eShop, Microsoft Store, or Steam for local pricing when it goes live.

Koei Tecmo is also running an official global web programme on 1 July at 3:00 PM PDT (2 July at 6:00 AM SGT), with Japanese voice actresses Yui Ishikawa (Mikasa Ackerman) and Shiori Mikami (Historia Reiss) on hand. Expect a full gameplay showcase and story details ahead of — or right alongside — launch.

Last words

Singapore fans have had a long wait for a new Attack on Titan game, and the timing here is stacked: launch day on 1 July, a MAPPA opening coming post-launch, and a live reveal stream at 6 AM on 2 July for the committed. If Omega Force’s upgraded 3D Maneuver Gear combat delivers on its promise, this could be the definitive AOT gaming experience fans have been asking for since the Final Season ended.
