In the not-so-distant future...
Following the fallout of the megacorporation's war, the government finally ceded...Incapable of holding back the rampant corruption and violence that now flowed out onto the streets.
They forced the then government to hand over exterritorial rights in return for their help bring back 'law and order' from the anarchy they started, and just like that, it was over...
What followed was an era of breakneck economic progress and development we could hardly keep up with. Cities quickly became independent megacities with their own laws, cultures and underground businesses.
In the aftermath, the many sciences prospered. Artificial Intelligence, Virtual reality applications, gene editing, food printing to feed the people and development of advanced robotics all led to a higher standard of life...For a price of course.
In "Cyberlinxxx" YOU have just created a new treatment for “Malkov`s disease.”
A psychosomatic illness affecting the brain and central nervous system that has ruined millions of lives already.
An effective treatment that would mean big money on the market.
It’s an opportunity the bio-medicinal wings of the many megacorporations factions won’t just let slide by.
Now you have become a target, and they'll stop at nothing to take what's yours.
...But you're not going down without a fight.
Your only chance of survival now leads you to the nearby megacity of Arriaka … Where there, you may just be able to find the answer to walk away from this thing alive...
