The opening night of Gamescom 2019 is off to an impressive start, with loads of new world premieres being revealed alongside new footage of previously announced titles, such as Gears 5. Another title that has been known to be in the works by former Halo devs, V1 Interactive has unveiled a brand new story gameplay for Disintegration, an upcoming Sci-Fi shooter that puts an interesting twist on what it means to be human. Check it out below:

In Disintegration, players are tasked with piloting their heavily armored Gravcycle, equipped with both offensive and defensive capabilities that will take them through both a single-player story campaign and PvP multiplayer. Here’s the breakdown of the story of Disintegration courtesy of the developer:

“In Earth’s near future, climate extremes, overpopulation, food shortages, and a global pandemic led to nations collapsing and humankind on the brink of extinction. Scientists adopted a means in which the human brain was removed and surgically encased into a robotic armature; a process known as Integration. It was meant to be a temporary solution to an unavoidable crisis.

It was a good thing for decades, allowing humans to survive. But some of the Integrated saw this new form as the future of humanity. With no desire to reverse the process, the post-humanist Integrated stratified, calling themselves the Rayonne. Global war soon erupted, and Rayonne forces now seek to hunt down any remaining humans, forcing their integration, and destroying those who don’t share their views.

In Disintegration, you play an Integrated character named Romer. He’s one of many who rebelled and are now outlawed by the Rayonne. It’s up to you to lead a small group of these Outlaws, people who have chosen to fight back and survive, into a brighter future where we protect those they care about and hope to one day become human again.”

Disintegration is slated to release in 2020 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
