History
The year is 2076, sea levels have risen to an uncontrollable level which made 89% of terrain uninhabitable. In a last ditch solution to this crisis, the United Nations initiated the creation of "Atlantises", floating cities capable of housing enough Human population and the possibility of staying stable for hundreds of years. Among them, there's Talon, which is based in the Gulf of Mexico  and its considered to be the largest and most notable Atlantis of all. The notability, however, is a very peculiar one. To ensure the reduction of crime in the floating cities, the UN decided to transfer the most feared and trained crime gangs to the underground city of Talon called "Talon's Chest". Their objective: prove their highest possibility of redeeming themselves from their most brutal sins and be transfered to the upper level to start a new life. Now Talon's Chest is on the middle of a big turf war between the 3 deadliest gangs: the dark magic based Latin group;Los Sombrios, the technocratic; Netxers and the militaristic based gang Eternal Battalions. Who will prevail? Who will succumb to their biggest demons. Let the tournament of redemption begin...

Gameplay
The game plays similarly to games like Bayonetta and Grand Theft Auto but with new twists. You control a variety of weapons which depends on the gang you're playing as, dark-themed melee weapons and abilities for Los Sombrios, technological based-weapons and equipment for the Nexters and military equipment for the Eternal Battalions. Each of them have their pros and cons both in their combat skills and when trying to deal with turf wars and other businesses in the sectors of Talon's Chest. There are three types of businesses to conduct; These three businesses will help the gangs gain up their reputation for the higher-ups and gain more points in winning the tournament of redemption. In addition to the gangs, lower-classes were also transfered to Talon's Chest in order to bear witness to possible selfless actions of each gang, furthering demonstrating the competition of the underground tournament.
