Hawkins is left deeply affected by the opening of the Rifts, and the heroes share a single mission: find and kill Vecna. However, Vecna has disappeared, leaving his location and intentions unknown.
The government has enforced a military quarantine on Hawkins and escalated its search for Eleven, pushing her into hiding once again.
As the anniversary of Will’s disappearance draws near, a familiar and heavy dread returns. The final battle approaches, bringing a darkness stronger and deadlier than ever before.
“To end this nightmare, they’ll need everyone — the full party — standing together, one last time.”
