Captain Laserhawk is a BAD@$$ crossover we needed, but never realized

This six-part animated series, from the mind of Adi Shankar, delivers fanservice to Ubisoft fans while weaving an incredible original story.

Netflix started streaming Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix a few days ago on October 19th and I was delighted with the show. It had left me wanting more and there are hints of an upcoming second season but we’ll probably have to wait because of the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike as it’s still dealing with the AMPTP.

It’s the crossover we NEVER knew that we needed.

I originally thought this would be a story set in the Blood Dragon timeline which was introduced as DLC to Far Cry 3. I was wrong and found it to be the most unexpected crossover of Ubisoft’s various intellectual properties (IP). The story takes place in a dystopian futuristic cyber-punk version of 1992 in which the United States ceased to exist and is known as Eden.
