While The Surge 2 will be released on September 24, 2019 on PC, PS4 and Xbox One, the title returns to bring the hype up with a video focused on its story. The hardcore action-RPG game developed by Deck13 Interactive and published by Focus Home Interactive takes stock of what appears to be the beginning of the end of humanity. The Surge's formula has been refined and improved here with new weapons, new gadgets, improved ranged combat, additional implants and much more. The dismemberment and targeting of limbs remains, of course, at the heart of the fighting.
Life on earth as we know it is indeed coming to an end. While, following the launch of a Utopia rocket that went wrong, the DeFrag nanovirus spread over the Earth, a plane crashed into Jericho City. Only survivor of flight 221, you wake up from a two-weeks coma where images of a girl named Athena and strange anomalies struck you in the medical antenna of a high security detention center. It is up to you to try to recover your memories and discover the truth about the virus, as long as you can survive in this city full of aggressive machines and where everyone is killing each other. But between the nano-cultists who operate in the streets and the AID government forces who are trying to maintain control of the city, the task will be far from simple.
