The story
The war for the pathogen has begun.
An alien pathogen discovered in Antarctica has thrown the world into chaos, and the shadowy Power Consortium wants to turn it into a weapon.
You are Dominic "Shadow" Kane, an operative of the covert agency PHANTOM. Your mission: infiltrate the heavily guarded Divinus Island, dismantle the Consortium's operations and uncover the secrets of a pathogen that promises mastery over life and death.
