Developer CyberConnect2's cult action JRPG series .hack (that's not a typo, it's pronounced dot hack) is finally making a comeback, and the studio's managed to convince rights owner Bandai Namco to let it have full control over the project.

The Dragon Ball Kakarot and long-time Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm developer has created basically every game in the multimedia series stretching back to 2002, and it's just revealed the first entirely new mainline release in more than a decade called .hack//Zero, which sounds like it's pretty early in production. The reveal trailer is still cool as heck, though.
