: You play as a Shadowrunner—a mercenary for hire—investigating the murder of an old friend in a campaign known as "Dead Man's Switch".
: The year is 2054 in a rainy, neon-lit Seattle. Technology and magic coexist; deckers hack corporate mainframes while mages summon spirits.
: Tactical, isometric grid combat that emphasizes cover, flanking, and managing specialized skills like "decking" (hacking) and "rigging" (controlling drones).
: Players can choose from various races (Elves, Trolls, Orks, Dwarves) and archetypes (Street Samurai, Mage, Shaman, Decker, or Rigger), though the game features a classless skill system that allows for hybrid builds.
