About this gameplay capture

Recorded in the actual Iron Gate mission with current scenery and native camera. This staged demonstration uses an upgraded loadout, replenished crowd, increased health and one ultimate cooldown reset. It does not represent default first-mission balance.

02 / A profitable misunderstanding

One breach.
Competing
interests.

A private energy venture in the New Mexico oilfields tried to synthesize oil. Instead, it tore open a breach to another world.

Now the Hive pours through. General Maddox wants to hold the line. Buck Crandall wants to protect the bottom line.

The mission is clear.
The motives are complicated.

Recruitment poster: General Maddox points at the viewer in front of a blue breach and an oilfield at dusk. “I want you. DEADLANE. Enlist. Hold the line.” Excellent benefits. Questionable life expectancy.
