Lucky Luke, the famous comic hero, is facing a new challenge in his upcoming adventure titled „The Last Round for the Daltons,“ set to be released on November 5, 2024. This time, a massive beer strike has hit all the breweries, leaving saloons dry and the town in chaos. Lucky Luke finds himself in unfamiliar territory, dealing with issues like work-life balance, strikebreakers, and assembly line work as the residents of Neu-Munich turn to him for help in putting an end to the madness threatening the Wild West way of life.

He must navigate through a world of breweries and overcome various obstacles to resolve the conflict between the powerful beer baron Frederick Martz and the union workers inspired by Karl Marx.
