Erroneous Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Of all the physical .hack media, there has been many physical and digital releases of this franchise. Too much in fact that it may seem overwhelming at first. People will ask, where do I begin? Where's the start of the series? What's the earliest and the latest? etc... Here we have it broken down into 3 categories called "seasons", these are based mostly on which iteration of "The World" the series takes place during. The years beside each season has to do with the year in-universe, not actual release date in real life.

Erroneous Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 Went more for a what was a physical content. Exception being the webnovels, but equally important In terms of chronological order, I used the source themselves as reference. https://hack.bn-ent.net/about/world/ Mostly because some of the content likes to jump around, for instance the New Kite .hack webnovel starts chapter 1 with the preface to everything with Pluto's Kiss, before any of the .hack media Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dui Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Nice! This is really good for me. I've always been a fan of the series but never dove to deep into it. I recently repicked up the PS2 Parts 1-4 so i'm excited to play them. Ionly ever played through Part 1! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
