Last Recode<\/em> is a remastered collection of three titles in the <em>.hack\/\/G.U.<\/em> series that originally released on the PlayStation2, with a new 4th volume added in. The game was developed by CyberConnect2 and launched in 2017 on PlayStation 4 and Steam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The game takes place in a fictional online game called \u201cThe World\u201d in the year 2017. Despite The World being this world\u2019s largest online game, it\u2019s no utopia for players as PKs and guild battles unfold across its virtual lands. A mysterious phenomenon that the developers have no recollection of putting into the game begins, and not even they can stop The World from falling into a lawless land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>.hack\/\/G.U. <\/em>follows the story of Haseo, a The World player. Haseo\u2019s friend was killed within the game which left her in a coma in the real world. As Haseo searches for clues about the whereabouts of \u201cTri-Edge,\u201d the player that killed his friend, he finds himself caught up in a manner of incidents and threats that face The World.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, there\u2019s a new Vol.4 episode that takes place 1 year and 3 months after the rest of the series and revolves around a promise Haseo couldn\u2019t fulfill.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-001.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6978\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-001.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-001-600x338.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-001-380x214.jpeg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-001-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-001-150x84.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-001-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-001-696x392.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-001-1068x601.jpeg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-001-747x420.jpeg 747w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-002.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6977\" width=\"1005\" height=\"565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-002.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-002-600x338.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-002-380x214.jpeg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-002-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-002-150x84.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-002-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-002-696x392.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-002-1068x601.jpeg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211202-184466-002-747x420.jpeg 747w\" \/><figcaption>screenshot from the Steam version<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><em>.hack\/\/G.U.
