Discover the truth behind an enigmatic AI striving to reach the Singularity, a theoretical “event horizon” in which artificial intelligence will surpass human intelligence and all bets about the future will be off. How will you play your part in the story? Explore the futuristic city of Harbor Prime and meet its many inhabitants, answer the challenges the city has to offer, roam the neon-lit streets, and augment your character with skills and implants. Designed as a tribute to the classic RPGs from the ‘90s, updated for a modern audience, Dex invites you to become part of a living, breathing cyberpunk universe as you decide which ultimate path you will embrace. Dex is a cyberpunk action role-playing game set in Harbor Prime, a sprawling city quietly ruled by powerful corporations bound together in a shadowy authority known as the Complex. Players take on the role of Dex, a young woman who suddenly finds herself hunted by the Complex's assassins with no clear idea why. Rescued by a mysterious hacker called Raycast, she is drawn into a growing resistance determined to break the Complex's grip on the city. Navigating neon-soaked streets and the digital networks beneath them, Dex takes on quests with multiple solutions as she uncovers the secret that made her a target.
