Plot Overview
Hawkins is scarred by the opening of the Rifts, and a single goal unites the heroes: find and kill Vecna. However, Vecna has vanished — his whereabouts and plans remain unknown.
Complicating their mission, the government has placed the town under military quarantine and intensified its hunt for Eleven, forcing her back into hiding.
As the anniversary of Will’s disappearance approaches, a heavy, familiar dread settles over Hawkins.
The final battle is looming — and with it, a darkness more powerful and more deadly than anything they’ve faced before.
To end this nightmare, the full group must stand together one last time.
