Summary
Do you believe in an afterlife? A heaven? In the futuristic universe of Earthrise, it seems mankind has achieved this with the advances of science and technology. Cloning. Nano-technology. Quantum engineering. Mix all of these together, and you have a recipe for an immortal species. Died somewhere on the way to work? No problem - just have someone access your consciousness from a secure data vault, upload it into a clone and go about your day.
This all takes place after the devastating effects of the Third World War, which the human race barely survived. So while this method of re-population may seem like a godsend to some, it's a mask for a huge government conspiracy to others. With total control over the cloning process, Sal Vitas acts as God, deciding who lives and dies. A rebel group called Noir has been established to overturn this abuse of power once and for all.
Sat in the middle of the conflict - but conveniently well-armed and able to pack a lot of heat - you get to shape the destiny of your character in any way you choose. You can be a soldier fighting in the middle of the government-rebellion war, a criminal on the run or even an engineer that makes a living from black market dealings. Level up your abilities using the skill-based advancement system and engage in player-vs-player combat to really extend your character’s abilities and make a difference in this crazy world.
