One year after humanity’s digital ascension, peace is an illusion. The Network hums with perfect unity — until a forbidden frequency pierces the silence. From the ruins of Tokyo’s underground, a system once thought erased awakens again: Deadline. Eva Moreau is dead. But her memories aren’t. Reconstructed from corrupted code and biological fragments, a new version of her emerges — EVA-02, a sentient hybrid unsure of who she was or what she’s become. Meanwhile, a shadow spreads through the global neural grid — whispers of individuality, emotion, and rebellion returning to minds once synchronized. And at the heart of it all is a mysterious signal repeating one phrase across every channel: “The host must choose.” As the survivors of the first outbreak reunite, they must face their creation — and decide whether to save the Network… or free the species that built it.
When the world awakens as one mind, only the dead remember what it means to be human.
