“A shut-in older brother. A high-achieving younger brother. A father who is not respected by his own children. A mother who neglects her own household. This is a broken family, and none of its members know that they are all players in an online game.”

The plot of Captain Laserhawk has yet to be revealed, however, we have heard that the series has been described as a “Love letter from Ubisoft from the 90s.” Taking into consideration that Adi Shankar, the executive producer behind Netflix’s Castlevania, we expect the series to be another smash hit for the streaming services’ ever-expanding animated library.
