A grim post-apocalyptic war thriller where humanity has lost dominance to alien monsters, exploring survival and futility through soldiers caught in an unwinnable conflict.

Seven years on from the events of Monsters, and the ‘Infected Zones’ have spread worldwide. Humans have been knocked off the top of the food chain, with disparate communities struggling for survival. American soldiers are being sent abroad to protect US interests from the Monsters, but the war is far from being won.
