Its citizens loving life under the control of an altruistic artificial intelligence, the city’s neon lights hide its dark underbelly. This leads you to Union City, which stands as one of the last remaining mega-cities in a world that has been left ravaged by shattering wars and political upheaval. You once again play as Robert Foster, who, after a child is abducted in a brutal attack, vows to bring him home. This sequel to the classic Beneath a Steel Sky is set a decade after the events of the original game.
