About This Game

Following a mysterious event on a fictional Southeast Asian island, the entire area has been placed under international quarantine. With most of the civilian population evacuated under the supervision of the United Nations, three PMC factions are tasked by their enigmatic clients to explore the region, uncover its secrets, and retrieve anything of value.

DEPLOY IN A LIVING OPEN-WORLD

Dive into the ultimate extraction shooter set in a vast 42km² open world of the Democratic Republic of Lamang, inspired by the stunning landscapes of Laos. As a PMC operator, embark on tactical missions to complete tasks, secure high-value loot, and survive intense FPS firefights against rival factions and AI enemies.

SURVIVE REALISTIC COMBAT
