Either there’s a major timeskip, because where the fuck did this cyberpunk metropolis come from given the original post-apocalyptic setting, or this is a prequel kicking off the apocalypse.
someone feel free to correct me, but arent the whole setting like…waifu 40k? the bodysuit squads are some sort of expeditionary force for a larger interplanetary empire i though?
presumably this game is set on another planet
didnt play the orginal, just going off of trailers
At the beginning of the game, you’re told that Earth was overrun by monsters, and your character is part of a task force intended to take the planet back. Partway the game, it’s revealed that in the past, there was a machine rebellion that got interrupted by the monsters appearing. The end of the game reveals that all the humans in the game (including your character) are actually robots, because after the machines wiped out the original humans the survivors turned themselves into monsters for revenge.
It’s crazy how this just sounds like you are describing neir automats

That doesn’t necessarily mean a sequel though. I mean, yes, this trailer could actually be taking place in the Colony, but aesthetics don’t really match Eidos 7 and the spaceships that we see in the game.
