The collaboration is not just one of those crossovers that we usually see on social networks or at promotional events, but it has the potential to give us exclusive content within the games or the series. And if you’re a fan of Re:ZERO, you know that surprises are never lacking when it comes to this franchise, and if you’re a fan of Shadowgarden, you’ll surely be looking for any excuse to dive deeper into its fascinating world and such collaboration promises to be an explosion of emotions.
Throughout this event, we are promised a unique experience with elements from both universes. The name of the collaboration says it all: “Shadowed Life in Another World” which gives us clues that we will see the characters of Re:ZERO live a story that could mix the dark and mysterious tone of Shadowgarden. And, of course, with the personalities of the Re:ZERO characters, I’m sure we’ll see some pretty funny, but also very tense situations. Who doesn’t want to see Subaru facing the dark mysteries of this new world? Already just thinking about how these characters will interact makes us want to be there in the front row.
The event will be held on various platforms and, as usual in this type of collaborations, it is likely that we will have exclusive content, such as new characters, special missions, themed costumes or even unreleased dialogues. If you are a regular player, you can’t miss the opportunity to experience everything this event has to offer.
Of course, it’s not all just about the games or the online content. What’s more exciting is the event’s PV, which is a visual preview of what we can expect. Thanks to this video, we can see some details of the collaboration, such as witnessing some moments that will probably leave us with our mouths open, and if you are an anime fan, it will surely excite you even more, these types of events always bring surprises.
Beyond what this collaboration can offer us, we can’t help but talk a little bit about Re:ZERO – Starting Life in Another World, which is the main reason why so many fans are waiting for this event. If you haven’t seen this amazing series yet, let me tell you a little bit about it.
Re:ZERO is a fantasy story that, at its core, looks like a classic travel to another world, but I assure you it’s anything but ordinary. The protagonist, Subaru Natsuki, is an ordinary boy who suddenly finds himself transported to a world full of magic and strange creatures. The funny thing is that, although he seems to have everything to be a hero, Subaru has no special powers, but he does have something even more interesting: the ability to come back from the dead. Every time he dies, he returns to a specific point in time, allowing him to try to correct the mistakes he made.
What seems to be a divine gift soon turns into a nightmare, as Subaru faces increasingly complicated and painful situations, with complex characters who will help him and sometimes put him in truly extreme situations. The series explores themes such as despair, sacrifice, friendship and, above all, self-improvement. It also has a pretty good dose of action, magic and a plot that will grab you from the very first episode.
If you haven’t yet delved into this world, I highly recommend it! And now, with this collaboration with Shadowgarden, the Re:ZERO universe continues to expand in ways we never imagined. Many surprises and epic moments await us. So get ready, because February 20th is the date to start enjoying this collaboration.
