What survives when everything burns?
After a brutal purge, rogue hacker Nyx escapes the city with a gang’s stolen data drive.
Hunted by the Nobunaga’s gang lord who believes the hacker has killed his daughter, Nyx crosses the desert, forming fragile bonds with a scavenger, a sarcastic AI trike, and a legendary outlaw DJ.
The information in the drive and the truth about the daughter’s fate could restore everything - or destroy what remains.
As opposed to New Wave, Deadwave has a cyberpunk counterculture where 80’s synth futurism meets digital collapse and urban insurrection. Culture, illiteracy and mythology are intertwined and weaponized inside a neon megacity.
INITIAL SHOOTING: FEBRUARY 2026
