In CHAIN CRISIS, players enter Warpgate City, a neo-dystopian metropolis caught in a battle for survival. The city's core infrastructure relies on the CHAIN, a powerful network powered by the rare element Nullium. With the CHAIN destabilizing, rival factions—corporations, rogue AI, and underground resistance groups—fight for control of its resources.
At the center of this crisis is Jack, a former hacker once known as "Jack the Ripper." After his sister Sera lost her life in a conflict with the Shadow Syndicate, who also stole her Nullium research, Jack abandoned his life of crime. Now, he leads a team of Runners, determined to dismantle the Syndicate and reclaim his sister’s legacy.
