The year is 2045. The long war between people and corporations ended with the megacorps as the clear victors, and what remains of humanity clusters in vast urban sprawls ruled by corporate boards instead of governments. In the absence of law, the underworld thrives. You are a Shell Runner — someone who operates lifelike remotely controlled bodies called Shells to carry out contract work for anyone willing to pay the rate. Shell Runner is a top-down tactical shooter that hybridizes looter shooter and extraction game mechanics. Choose from over twenty Shells, ranging from disposable low-tier models to high-end hardware built for elite operatives. Complete your contract, extract with everything you collected, and try not to lose your Shell — because if you do, the gear, the loot, and the credits go with it. Solo runs or cooperative play. Procedurally generated maps with hand-crafted boss encounters. High-risk, high-reward. Every job is different.
