How it starts
The game opens with a short history of Yara and Antón Castillo's televised speech about Viviro. Dani is watching it with friends who plan to leave Yara the same night.
What you do
FND soldiers flood the streets during a blackout. You run with Lita through buildings, sewers and rooftops to reach the refugee boat San Judas at the edge of the city. There is no real combat, so it works as a movement tutorial.
What happensSpoilerShow
Alejo is shot in the street. On the boat, Dani helps a teenager and a nanny get aboard, and the teenager turns out to be Diego Castillo. Antón stops the boat, takes his son and orders everyone killed. Dani wakes on the beach of Isla Santuario, where Lita dies, and is the only survivor.
