In Night City, 2077, we are introduced to Mara Ramirez, Ghost-313, Trace McGiven, and Alyra, operatives of Unit 7 tasked with handling the unnatural. Their latest assignment comes via an urgent call from EPIS handler Victoria Malren, sending them to investigate a sabotaged corporate facility. As they uncover links to a past black-ops mission, the name Korven keeps appearing, and "Operation Blackout" emerges as a dark secret. But before they can escape, a mysterious presence fills the warehouse, security overrides activate, and EPIS combat mechs lock onto the team—ready to engage.
