In this Corporate Era, cyborgs (humans with both biological and artificial parts) and synthetics (humanoid robots with artificial intelligence) exist alongside humans. But the game is changed when the wunderkind Founder and CEO of Prodigy Corporation unlocks a new technological advancement: hybrids (humanoid robots infused with human consciousness). The first hybrid prototype named "Wendy" marks a new dawn in the race for immortality. After Weyland-Yutani's spaceship collides into Prodigy City, "Wendy" and the other hybrids encounter mysterious life forms more terrifying than anyone could have ever imagined.
