Netflix’s Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix — out October 19th — turns Ubisoft’s deep catalog of video games into a brilliant, postmodern multiverse.
As tremendous, and critically well received, as both of Netflix’s Castlevania series have been, you might expect the streamer’s newest video game adaptation from executive producer Adi Shankar to take a similar approach to translating iconic pieces of IP across mediums.
What’s most immediately striking about the series, though, is its focus on exploring how oppressive societies maintain control over the masses and how those systems of power can be dismantled. It’s darkly funny when Rayman himself pops onto the screen as the secretly depressed face of Eden’s nightly news bulletins, and you’re supposed to laugh as Laserhawk finds himself being forced to work with an anthropomorphic bullfrog inspired by Assassin’s Creed.
