changedKickstarter CampaignIn 2020, thanks to YOU, we were able to self-produce WAKFU Season 4. Almost 18,000 backers answered the call, raising nearly 1.5 million euros. An exceptional amount – a European record – and, above all, clear proof of your fondness for the Brotherhood of the Tofu!

addedKickstarter CampaignOur partner, France Télévisions , told us they would like to join us on one last adventure with the Brotherhood, the very last, the "very, very last." Who could turn down one last adventure, on screen, for our beautiful band of heroes?

A fate thought to be sealed, a story that awakens…

After years of conflict, newly forged legends and shared emotions, the The Brotherhood of the Tofu believed its final chapter had been written, its story ending with the defeat of the Necros. We thought so too. But in the shadows, an unexpected event came to pass.

A mysterious character resurfaced, caught between two worlds, trapped in ice and engrossed with his thoughts: Count Harebourg. It was thought he was had been lost during the fall of Oropo's Dimension, but he escaped the clutches of death. The Eliacube had decided otherwise. Freed and exalted by immense powers, his designs are far from peaceful…

Long dormant under the ice, he is going to turn our heroes' adventure on its head.

Today, we are no longer on our own.

Our partner, France Télévisions, told us they would like to join us on one last adventure with the Brotherhood, the very last, the "very, very last."

You support remains essential, so that is why we are launching a Kickstarter campaign.

By backing this project, you will help us keep Ankama Animations independent and become co-producers of WAKFU Season 5! In addition, you'll receive some carefully crafted rewards for being such amazing fans – and, let's be honest too, we love to spoil you…

Depending on the tiers reached, we'll be taking things even further, with bonuses such as a special episode, or even a mini-series about the adventure and relationship of two characters whose story deserves to be explored and told…

Time's a-ticking!

Time's a ticking because our Kickstarter campaign can't run forever. Our campaign starts today, Wednesday, February 12, and runs until Wednesday, March 12. One month to prove to the whole world – once again – just how powerful the WAKFU community is!
