What is this? Something new or a re-release or what?

It is a brand new adaptation. So, it will be starting from the beginning of the story, but they haven't announced how many episodes this season will run yet, so it is hard to say how far into the story it will get. One exciting bit is that the original voice actors for the main pair are returning for this adaptation. Premieres in April.

This is great news

I wanted a season 3 :(

But maybe we get there...

They haven't announced how many episodes this season is planned to run for, so who knows? I suspect that this project wouldn't be happening unless they planned on adapting a good chunk of the source. It's not like this series needs the promotional help of an anime to sell light novel volumes.

I just hope it gets the great treatment it deserves and more content.

This is going to feel like the Haruhi Endless Eight Arc for those of us that loved the previous anime, probably for the entire season. I doubt they will (and hope they don't) try to cram two seasons worth of content into a single season.

Love the art. Didn't at first, but seeing it in motion sold me.
