Syndicate

Syndicate

In 2017, the world’s largest corporations merge into one mega corporation. EuroCorp. In 2025,

EuroCorp releases the so-called DART chip, which is a neural implant allowing the users to

acces the dataverse, thus making almost all electronic devices obsolete. With this, the world

becomes ruled by unelected mega corporations instaed of previously elected governments,

they become minor and unimportant, worthless. These maga corps are known as ‘Syndicates’.

These mega corps act as governments, and for that purpose, they have their own armies, espionage

and warfare to protect themselves or to gain more power and control. For this purpose, they recruit

agents, who are bio-enigneered enforcers augmented by the militarised version of the chip and their

task is to protect the interests of their corporate masters. The current year in the game is 2069 and

EuroCorp has recruited the latest agent Miles Kilo, whose task is to eliminate important personnel

from rival corporations. While doing so, he finds out the ugly truth about HOW the EuroCorp ‘recruits’

agents. He is implanted with the DART-6 chip which gives him breaching abilities. This allows him to

hack into enemy and do 3 different things with him: backfire, suicide, persuade. Those can be

enhanced by collecting chips from the killed enemies. This chip is creation by Lily Drawl who

is leaking info to other corporation. From this point, things get mixed up and unclear, batrayals

are common and oparating at all is a hell of a risk. Throught this period, Milo gains memories

of his distant past as a baby, in wich his parents are killed by EuroCorp in order for him to be

‘recruited’ because of his genetic predispositions to be agent. At the end, Kilo escapes from

his restraints and finds that like him, all of Eurocorp’s agents were abducted as children and

their memories were modified so they would remain loyal to Eurocorp. This game is similar

to the Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Mankind Devided, even the stories of Adam Jensen

and Miles Kilo are similar, they are orphans. The difference is in the quantity of warfare

they have, Deus Ex is more realistic and Syndiacate flies off the clouds with their too

futuristic and ambitious warfare. Still a high-quality game out there.
