Building burnt down, and with it, most of its data for The World. By splicing data from what would have potentially been another game, CC Corp. created The World R:2 and released it in 2016. Set six months before .hack//G.U., Haseo logs into The World R:2 for the first time and falls victim to the PKs that reside within The World R:2.

The Twilight Brigade members are on a mission to find the Key of the Twilight, however, the TaN guild opposes this for some unknown reason and will stop at nothing to keep the Twilight Brigade from their goal.
