Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix is the latest video game anime to hit Netflix from creator Adi Shankar after he helped make the highly successful Castlevania and Castlevania: Nocturne anime adaptations. The story takes elements from across multiple different Ubisoft franchises like Far Cry: 3 Blood Dragon, Assassin’s Creed, and Rayman to name a few. It isn’t a direct adaptation of a singular game, which gives it a lot more scope for expansion into Season 2 and beyond.
Major spoilers for Season 1 to follow.
Will there be a Season 2 of Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix?
Official Renewal Status: TBC
Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix has been released on Netflix, and while the show hasn’t been renewed for season two yet, the ending of Season 1 makes it seem likely that there will be another season of the show.
The final episode ended with Rayman, renamed Raymon, killing all of Eden’s Board of Directors in a mad frenzy. Before he slaughtered them all, he got them to call off Bullfrog’s execution, letting him go. Captain Laserhawk is confronted by Eden’s army and the Niji 6, but he manages to defeat them all. He then attempts to kill Sarah by blowing himself up but is unsuccessful. Sarah emerges unscathed and completes her plan of taking over the VR facility.
Of course, Netflix will be keeping a close eye on the show’s performance metrics, details of which will become available a week or two after the show’s initial release. We’ll be sure to update this article then, but in the meantime, our official prediction is that there will be a Season 2 of Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix.
What might Season 2 be about?
Sarah aka The Warden revealed that Eden Tech was at one point known as the Templar Order. This is a shadowy group found in Assassin’s Creed, who operate in the dark to pull the levers of power. They emerged across the globe and throughout history to dominate the world, and the Assassins would rise to counter them and free the people the Templars oppressed.
The Templars were also searching for Pieces of Eden, mystical pieces of ancient technology made by the Isu, or the First Civilization. This hints that this might come into play in a possible Season 2. Captain Laserhawk blew himself up in an attempt to stop Sarah. Marcus Holloway, leader of DeadSec and of the resistance to Eden, manages to avoid the blast and survive.
While audiences don’t get to see Laserhawk’s body to confirm his death, Marcus sees Laserhawk’s one real arm thrown across the floor, severed from the rest of his body. If Laserhawk somehow survived the explosion, he’s going to need another replacement arm.
But there is a survivor. Sarah manages to survive the explosion, and her four legs are now out. It’s revealed that she is in fact a robot. She asks again if Marcus will join her in her quest to reshape Eden, but the episode ends before he can answer. Now that Marcus has lost control of the VR facility, he will have to decide whether he wants to join Sarah or oppose her. With Eden in complete disarray with the loss of their army and Board, Eden will be easy to reshape.
After slaughtering Eden’s Board, Rayman (now Raymon?) will likely team up with the Assassin Bullfrog, who will be able to teach Rayman more about Eden’s atrocities and reinstate a new government. Bullfrog also might be able to help explain some of Eden’s past, especially as the Templar Order is the sworn enemy of the Assassins. It’s unlikely that they will join Sarah, so they will probably attempt to take her down, especially once Bullfrog finds out that Laserhawk sacrificed himself to try to stop Sarah.
