Humanity stands on the brink of extinction. Earth has been overrun by the Corrupted—a mechanical army twisted and warped by the deadly biomechanical virus known as The Punishing. The last remnants of mankind have taken refuge in orbit aboard the spacefaring vessel Babylonia. After years of preparation, the Gray Raven, an elite task force, now leads the mission to reclaim their lost homeworld. You are their Commandant.
