Dark Sector thrusts players into the role of Hayden Tenno, a covert operative sent on a dangerous mission into Lasria, an Eastern European city on the brink of ruin that hides a deadly Cold War secret.

In the midst of this mission, Hayden is attacked by an unknown enemy and infected by the Technocyte Virus, a brutal bio-weapon that twists its victims into mindless killing machines. Surviving this attack, Hayden finds that the Technocyte virus has granted him powerful, inhuman abilities unlike anything he has ever seen. Now, he must evolve with his powers, survive and become a hero.

Innovative multiplayer component


Dark Sector features an innovative and exciting multiplayer gameplay that will allow players to utilize the skills they have learned in the single-player game to excel in a competitive environment

Your pistol is inaccurate, you have to get in close to use the Glaive, and even then you have to hit an enemy 2-3 times to keep them down. Then, after fighting through waves of enemies, one enemy will run at you with a shield that's immune to all types of damage and one shot you, forcing you to restart the entire encounter. And if the game didn't have enough problems, the MC has the personality of a wet McDonald's napkin. There are glimpses in the story where he questions what he's doing all this for, just for someone on the radio to be like "trust me bro, you're almost done, please just keep going," and he's like, good enough for me.
