WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

The seemingly ordinary town of Arcadia Oaks lies at the centre of a magical and mystical nexus for battles against otherworldly creatures such as trolls, aliens and wizards. However, when the town is brought to the brink of an apocalyptic battle for control of all magic, the various heroes of the town must now unite to save the day…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Producer Guillermo del Toro and DreamWorks Animation’s highly-acclaimed Tales of Arcadia franchise – which consists of interconnected animated series like Trollhunters, 3Below and Wizards – comes to an epic conclusion as all three series crossover for a final battle that will satisfy loyal fans, and maybe even win over some newcomers.
