Akira has learned the hard way that his fellow relic hunters can be just as deadly as anything else in the wasteland. He’s more determined than ever to go it alone, but life has other ideas. Suddenly, fortune seekers are crowding his favorite hunting grounds, and when a mysterious phenomenon blankets the ruins, he finds it harder to steer clear of conflict than he’d like. Back in the city, his luck isn’t much better: one of the many gangs that rule the slums is out for his money—and his blood. Compared to the ravenous beasts and killer machines that roam the wastes, these petty outlaws don’t seem much of a threat—but they won’t stop coming after him until he racks up a body count that shows gunning for him doesn’t pay. And to cap it all off, he crosses paths with a girl who might just end his self-isolation for good. Akira has an arsenal of new gear and the ever-mysterious Alpha to guide him, but will that be enough to navigate the rocky road ahead?
