Hell Mode Season 2 Confirmed for July Release, Teaser PV Revealed Featuring Takahiro Sakurai as Helmios

The anime Hell Mode: The Hardcore Gamer Dominates in Another World with Garbage Balancing (JP: ヘルモード ～やり込み好きのゲーマーは廃設定の異世界で無双する～) has officially announced the production of its second season. The new season is set to premiere in July 2026.

It has also been revealed that Takahiro Sakurai will voice Helmios, a young man who possesses the talent of a “Hero,” said to be the strongest among humanity.

Alongside the announcement, a key visual and teaser PV for Season 2 have been released, highlighting the main storyline’s “Academy Arc.”

The teaser PV begins with Allen and his companions setting off for an academy city. It then showcases the group taking on a long-awaited dungeon challenge for Allen. The footage also teases encounters with new allies in the academy city, including the “Hero” Helmios, building anticipation for the group’s adventures in a new setting.

Hell Mode follows a 35-year-old single office worker who is reincarnated as a young farm servant named Allen in another world. Before his reincarnation, Allen disliked easy games and spent over a decade searching for one that could truly challenge him. As a result, he chooses to live his new life on the highest difficulty setting, “Hell Mode.”

Using the unique and mysterious “Summoner” ability, Allen begins his journey toward becoming the strongest. However, without strategy guides or online forums to rely on, and with even leveling up proving difficult, life in this other world turns out to be far more unforgiving than he expected.
