KUALA LUMPUR – After years of excitement and overwhelming demand from fans, the legendary Black Rock Shooter franchise has returned to screens with an all-new storyline on Disney+ Hotstar.
Set in a dystopian future where the human race has been overthrown by a rogue artificial intelligence, and humanity’s last hope, Black Rock Shooter, disappeared long ago, only weeks remain until the last dregs of the resistance are wiped off the planet forever.

In the not-so-distant future, a rogue artificial intelligence (AI) designed to help mankind turns on its creators, declaring war and wiping out the majority of the human race.
While the resistance to the machines was initially strong, helped by Empress aka Black Rock Shooter and her team, her sudden disappearance over 16 years ago resulted in the near extinction of the human race.
With only a few weeks remaining, until the AI can unleash its final blow against the humans, hope on Earth is all but gone. Awakening from a prolonged slumber, Black Rock Shooter has no idea who she is, what she can do, or what remains of the planet she once worked so hard to protect.
With time ticking away, will she be able to turn the tide and save the planet before it's too late?
