.hack//Link to be the Final Installment to the .hack Universe

"Whether you choose to believe it our not, .hack is coming to an end. In the latest Famitsu scans, CC2 president Matsuyama confirms any lingering what ifs: "…in no uncertain terms that while some anime, manga, etc. will continue for about a year, after that, .hack will end. This is the third and final "season" of .hack."

Matsuyama goes on to state that "Link breaks the trend of having Cubia or the 8 Phases as the final boss, but that the final boss in Link will be the most powerful in the history of .hack. Calling this the conclusion of .hack isn’t just hyperbole, you fight with parts that have been avoided until now. Everyone will be surprised by it."

.hack//Link is scheduled to release on the PSP March 4th, 2010 in Japan. No U.S. release date has been announced. "
