Game setting and plot details

The story begins after the Phoebe incident and takes place between Season 1 and Season 2 of the TV show. Players control a protagonist and her twin named J as they infiltrate a space station owned by Protogen. The duo is investigating a recent shipjacking by their crew before sneaking deep into enemy territory.

Genre comparison and reception

Reviewers describe the title as a sci-fi action-adventure similar to Gears of War rather than a narrative-rich Mass Effect revival. The project aims to fill a gap left by BioWare's MIA franchise alongside another upcoming game called Exodus.
