2199, Solar system. The Earth Federation and the Mars Dominion are at war with each other due to centuries of historical trauma. The national e-sports game "Star Ocean: Solar System Battlefield" developed by the private enterprise Deep Space Link has become the only outlet for 200 million active players to vent their emotions.

When the Annihilator civilization—a silicon-based distributed consciousness network that pursues absolute rationality—comes to the solar system, the perfect logic machine will destroy all human defenses within 0.5 Seconds.
"Only by holding on to the darkness can we welcome the dawn." -Xiao Lingyi
