With the advancement of technology and space engineering, mankind has spread across the vast reaches of the cosmos. The population grows exponentially, and to sustain this growth, humanity must establish colonies throughout the galaxy, ceaselessly searching for new and valuable resources to fuel their limitless expansion.
These times of prosperity have brought unprecedented power and wealth to the great corporations and nations that govern the Great Expansion, as this era of colonization is known. However, the dark void of space harbors dangers beyond mere resource scarcity. Pirates and bandits roam the starways, preying on vulnerable commerce and civilian ships across the Dominion. To counter this rising threat, the UGE (Union of the Great Expanse), the Terran coalition overseeing space transit and security, has declared all-out war on these marauders. The full might of the UGE’s fleet is mobilized, its aim to restore order and dominance among the stars.
But pirates are not the only menace lurking in the shadows. In the farthest reaches of colonized space, beyond the gaze of the Dominion, ancient cults have emerged. These zealots worship forgotten gods of Infinity and enigmatic deities tied to lost civilizations of the firmament. Driven by their cryptic beliefs, the cultists raid colonies and abduct innocents, dragging them to hidden shrines to offer as sacrifices to their unfathomable masters.
Amid this chaos, a new way of life has flourished on the lawless frontier. Renegades and outcasts, unable or unwilling to align with either the UGE or the pirates, have built their own colonies and fortified stations in the outer rim. Here, on the edge of civilization, they have created "Space Combat Rush," a brutal sport where pilots battle in custom ships for wealth, glory and survival. Each pilot’s craft is more than a vessel; it is a testament to their skill, their victories and the risks they are willing to take.
For some, Space Combat Rush is the ultimate escape—a chance to rise above obscurity and carve their name into the stars. For others, it is a bloodstained theater where survival is its own reward. But in a galaxy fraught with war, greed and the whispers of ancient gods, even the arena holds secrets, and the line between fame and oblivion is razor-thin.
In this volatile era, one thing is certain: whether fighting for justice, plunder, faith or freedom, every starfarer must stake their claim in the Great Expanse and face the perils that lie beyond.
