About The Protagonist: EX-1
The Protagonist: EX-1 is a story-driven game set as war looms between the Terrans and an invading synthetic race. After a massive station appears in orbit, first contact goes badly. An elite strike team led by Angel, a highly trained special agent skilled in advanced martial arts, is sent to neutralize the threat.
Angel awakens in the station’s infirmary with no memory of what happened. She must trust an unfamiliar face to guide her through the alien ship and find the rest of her team. The team is Terra’s only hope.
