Set before the first Emergence 2028 feature film, Courier Zero follows black-ops contractor Cal “Geist” Richter and his off-book ISI team as they take on recovery and direct-action contracts across a savage, near-future Los Angeles.

When a group of gangers is found butchered inside a Dregsprawl sector, every camera has failed and every surviving account contradicts the last. The only clue is a trail of corrupted data leading toward a courier who may not officially exist.
