About this game

Epidemic is a shooter set after the Gigari virus has spread across the globe, forcing the remnants of humanity underground into Neural City. The city is controlled by the Byflos Group, which threatens to shut down its life-support systems.

As Masao Coda, a member of the Del Sol liberation group, players use the Protect Armor suit to battle the Byflos Group and its robotic forces. His mission is personal as well as revolutionary: rescue his infected girlfriend and help save humanity.
