Jon Schnepp And ‘Avenged Sevenfold’s ‘Hail To The King’ Now Available For Binge-Viewing!

Briefly: The release date was revealed just last week, and now it’s finally here! Hail to the King is now available to watch in its entirety on Machinima Happy Hour!

Now, it’s been a number of years since I’ve listened to Avenged Sevenfold, but with an animation giant like Jon Schnepp attached to the project, I’ll be watching Hail to the King immediately. The series goes hand-in-hand with the band’s upcoming mobile video game Hail to the King: Deathbat, which is due out in early 2014. As singer M Shadows says: “The animated series tells the story ‘before’ the game takes place. When the series ends, the game picks up.”

You can watch all six episodes below, and be sure to let us know what you think! Don’t forget to check out Schnepp’s current Kickstarter campaign, Unicrom: The Unicorn Barbarian!

From the creative minds of Avenged Sevenfold, one of rock music’s global heavyweights and a trailblazing force in fusing the worlds of music and video games, Hail To The King is a six-episode animated series, which is directed by Metalocalypse producer Jon Schnepp. The unique and innovative series tells the fictional story of the Deathbat – the band’s longtime trademark, and serves as the prologue to their highly anticipated mobile video game, “Hail to the King: Deathbat.” Accompanying the launch of the series will be a trailer for the game, which will be available early 2014.
