In the year 2205, Earth is no longer ruled by governments but by megacorporations that control every aspect of society, from law enforcement to the media. The planet’s wealthiest citizens live in the SkyCities, floating metropolises untouched by war, pollution, or poverty. Meanwhile, the Surface Dwellers—those abandoned on the toxic, crime-ridden Earth below—struggle to survive under brutal corporate regimes. When a journalist-turned-rebel leader named Ronan Hale discovers classified documents proving that SkyCity elites plan to eliminate the Surface Dwellers to “reset” the planet for their own benefit, he becomes the most wanted man on Earth and beyond. With the help of a rogue AI and an ex-corporate enforcer, Ronan embarks on a desperate mission to expose the truth before humanity is permanently divided. As the unstoppable forces of corporate militarization hunt him down, Ronan must decide: Does he try to save a broken system? Or burn it all down and start anew? Ronan infiltrates SkyCity’s Central Network, only to learn the horrifying truth: SkyCity itself is a lie. The elites aren’t living in utopia—they are trapped in a simulation, their minds uploaded centuries ago. The corporations have already abandoned Earth entirely, leaving only an AI-driven system to maintain control. The only way to free humanity is to destroy SkyCity’s mainframe, erasing the last remnants of the old world forever.
