Making more difficult the task, the government has enforced Hawkins under military quarantine and stepped up the pursuit for the heroine, compelling her to go underground. As the yearly mark of the event draws near, comes an intense, familiar dread. The ultimate conflict is approaching – and alongside it, a malevolence stronger and more lethal than anything else they have encountered before. To conclude this horror, it will take all members – the entire group – united, one last time."
