The official synopsis of the anime describes the series as follows.

The online game “THE NEW GATE” was bustling with many players, but the virtual space suddenly transformed, trapping and tormenting people in the game world. To shatter this situation, one young man stood up – Shin, the strongest player in the game. 

Blocking his way was the greatest enemy in this world, Origin. “It’s over…!” At the end of a fight to the death, Shin’s killing blow pierced through Origin’s body. The ringing announcement confirmed the game’s completion and the liberation of the imprisoned players. 

Shin also bid farewell to the familiar world as people began to log out. However, at that moment, a new door suddenly opened before him――What unfolded before Shin, wrapped in light, was… the world of “THE NEW GATE,” 500 years after clearing the game!
