After a massive leadership change saw its co-founders taking on creatively-focused roles amid the ascension of digital vet Jordan Levin to general manager, and in the wake of its first major round of layoffs, Austin-based digital outfit Rooster Teeth is pressing onward with what it does best: creating content for its global footprint of 45 million YouTube subscribers and 5 million unique monthly visitors to proprietary website.
At a panel yesterday at New York Comic-Con, Rooster Teeth unveiled the trailer for season seven of its long-running anime RWBY. At the same time, RWBY writer/director Kerry Shawcross confirmed that the series had been greenlit through seasons eight and nine, with additional details to follow.
Season seven will follow the quartet of young huntresses — Ruby Rose
, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long — who have fought with their friends to bring an ancient relic to the northernmost kingdom of the Remnant. Upon their arrival, however, they are faced with a futuristic urban-sprawl that may hide just as much danger as the tundra that surrounds it.RWBY holds the distinction of being the first western-style anime to be distributed in Japan. The series has also spawned comic books, created in partnership with sister company DC Entertainment, and YA novels.
