The 30th anniversary new game CyberConnect2 teased earlier in February 2026 is a .hack JRPG called .hack//Zero. The official site and teaser trailer are live. There’s no release window for it yet, but references to the original game appear.
Here’s the first teaser trailer for .hack//Zero. It starts by showing the real world, with someone in a hospital bed browsing the internet and a number of blocking notices coming up. We then see glitching and The World MMORPG. Kite is running through a dungeon initially, and there’s a brief cut-in image of a young woman with Aura’s infinity symbol on her chest. From there, we see a Heavy Blade that looks like BlackRose fighting an armored individual with white hair and blue eyes. A tagline at the end of it states, “This world is at ‘Dusk.’ it matches with us so well.” That seems to be a reference to the original games and .hack//Legend of the Twilight.
On the site announcing the project, CyberConnect2 noted this is a totally new and original game completely handled by them. Bandai Namco previously was involved with the company’s other .hack games, but isn’t with this JRPG. It is confirmed it will be an action-RPG, but adventure elements will be present.
Note that this project seems to be completely disconnected from the novel of the same name (ファントム·ペイン). One volume of that storyline released back in 2003 in Japan.
