Synopsis
In the 23rd century, Earth teeters on the brink of destruction as war rages between the world's four giant corporations that are battling over the planet's dwindling resources. In an era marked by warfare and social regression, the earth is on the verge of ruin, devastation is everywhere; battles explode on every ravaged continent.
Amidst heavy combat, an errant shell shatters an ancient buried seal releasing a horrific mutant army from its eternal prison deep within the earth. As the mutant scourge threatens human extinction, a single squad of soldiers descends into the earth to fulfil the ages-old prophesy of the MUTANT CHRONICLES and save mankind.
