HOLO CORP – a ubiquitous corporate behemoth that (obviously) values profit over ethics. That's why they aren't shy about sending mercenaries to explore and preemptively attack alien worlds in order to obtain precious artifacts and DNA samples for their research. The Greedy Guns team is happy to work for HOLO CORP – as long as they pay well. And do they ever! Too bad HOLO CORP also sells them their guns.
