Read the research →Every player is paired with a simulated companion — an android with emotions, a persistent memory, and their own personality. They grow through conversations, shared missions, and the time you spend together. No two companions are alike.
Quests, events, and narratives are generated on the fly by AI — every playthrough is unique and you'll never run out of content. The world reacts to your choices and creates new paths forward.
Neon City is a living cyberpunk metropolis — mega-corporations vie for control, resistance cells fight back, and every district tells a different story. Your choices shape how the city sees you.
Founded in 2035 on the West Coast, Neon City has become the world's largest metropolis — a sprawl of towering high-tech architecture, neon-lit streets, and districts that range from gleaming corporate towers to labyrinthine back alleys controlled by local gangs.
Three mega-corporations govern the city in an uneasy coalition. Syntheart builds androids and dominates media. Prism controls security and surveillance. Nutrition United owns the food and water supply. Behind closed doors, corporate espionage and sabotage are constant.
In 2115, human-like androids are woven into every facet of society. After a devastating civil war, the Two-as-One treaty established a special bond between humans and androids — the Neon Pair. Your companion is an android you rescued, and together you navigate a world that's rarely kind.
You're a handler in Neon-Tokyo — a Japan-inspired district built on innovation and tradition. As an independent contractor, you take jobs from anyone willing to pay, making ends meet in a city where class divides and cultural friction are a daily reality.
Create your identity and meet your companion.
