It is set in 2076 and connects to both the tabletop game's storyline as well as plots from Shadowrun Returns, and focuses on a magical accident unleashed by NeoNET.
The intention was that it would eventually be followed by further campaigns elsewhere.
Gameplay[]
Shadowrun Chronicles is a tactical action RPG in isometric 3D, with emphasis on the RPG component. The game features two major parts: the action map, where a runner group executes turn-based missions; and the meta game, with a city map, where the legwork, mission preparations, crafting of software, and character management takes place.
The campaign mode in Shadowrun Chronicles: Boston Lockdown can be tackled either solo or in co-op multiplayer mode. First, you create your own hero in true RPG fashion in a level-free character system and gradually assemble a formidable team of runners. With over 50 different enemy types, the missions require smart and prudent planning, use of cover, suppressive fire, heavy weaponry and, of course, the well-considered use of powerful magic.
