Story

The game takes place in Asougi City, a town facing the Seto Inland Sea that has been completely taken over by a corporation.[8]

However, the nature of the regime has given rise to some level of bubbling unrest. This unrest manifests itself in the form of the "anti-Aso" clans.[5][9]

It's as the Founder's Birthday Ceremony approaches that things approach a breaking point, as Asougi's oppression worsens, the anti-Aso agitate,[10] and the general public turns its eye to goings-on in the city.[4]

Players take control of the Nayuta clan, one of the anti-Aso forces, and through the game's mechanics control both their business and their battle operations as they strive to outcompete the other clans on the ground,[11] and ultimately topple Asougi itself.
