To this day, we are still on the verge of reaching our voice to Bandai Namco Entertainment, because making IP like the .hack series won’t happen until CyberConnect2 gets approval from Bandai since they’re a publisher of the series. Once it gets approval from them, remakes, and new series are meant to be a possibility.
But for now, no news regarding about .hack series from the publisher itself, and CyberConnect2 still asking us to raise our voice to the publisher company.
There are ways to reach our voice toward CyberConnect2 and Bandai Namco Entertainment, such as:
- Get Active Online – Be vocal and talk about the series on social media, make a website, make fan artwork, fan fiction, cosplay, etc. The key here is to be as transparent as possible–show and be seen! Do things that are easily found, discovered, shared, etc. Also, get involved in other fan circles online. There are all sorts of hubs for connecting with other .hackers, you shouldn’t have trouble finding other like-minded fans! You can share your fan works or anything that makes you active, you need to use #dothackrevival and #bringbackdothack to let CyberConnect2 and Bandai Namco know as how you continue to get active on Social Media and Online.
- Purchase .hack Games & Available Merch – Although it may be difficult to get items new these days, it’s important to support the series with your wallet. Please be aware that the money you pay for any used item from a 3rd party does not go to the publisher or developer… so although your collection might get a bit bigger, it’s not exactly helping to revitalize the series… UNLESS you take all sorts of photos of your collection and rally the fanbase, which would fall under #1 above!!
- Write to BNE & Frequently – Tell them you want more .hack, show them how passionate you are and what the series means to you. Write to their email on the website, their Twitter, Facebook, or anywhere you can. Get others to do the same!
- Petition – You also need a petition to show how much people who love for .hack franchise to come back, According to Hiroshi Matsuyama on CC2 Japan #48 regarding .hack//IMOQ HD remastered or remake, you need 2.000.000 people signing a petition to reach its voice toward the publisher to change their mind and realize how fans still interested with dothack franchise leading up to it’s revitalization, but at least you can gather the people to sign the petition at least for 200.000, 300.000, 600.000, and 800.000 to be able to do it. There are some who already created a petition to bring back and release .hack//IMOQ HD remastered or Remake, by clicking the petition page here.
- CC2 Fan Club also announces a survey petition whether you are choosing for .hack//IMOQ HD Remastered/Remake or a New .hack series title. You can click the link survey here!
- Support the Developer – You need to bombard Bandai Namco with the request to continue the .hack as already stated by Hiroshi Matsuyama that you need to send a request to its publisher because to .hack franchise was owned by Bandai Namco Entertainment. The other things you can do is to follow CC2 on Social Media, Share their works, get other people interested, and follow the new projects. For overseas fans, you can check @cc2information along with upcoming Q&A episodes of Hiroshi Matsuyama for the information.
- Buy .hack//G.U. Last Recode – Lastly you need to buy the game of the latest .hack series, G.U. Last Recode. The last time, the game sold 300k Copies, and to support the series, you need to buy the game and increase its sales copies publishers need to think that the .hack series needs to continue. You can buy it on PlayStation Network for PS4 and Steam or you can buy it on the game store, or buy it on Nintendo Switch which has been released on March 11, 2022, Worldwide.
