Set one year after the events of the original D4VE, D4VE2
picks up in a world that appears to be thriving in peaceful times. But beneath
the shiny chrome surface, 34RTH is still as chaotic and uncertain as ever.
D4VE, once a fearless military hero and now a somewhat dysfunctional office
drone, is grappling with personal doubts and a deteriorating relationship with
5COTTY.
Everything shifts when an unidentified spaceship arrives,
triggering a cosmic mystery and a threat from the past that could disrupt the

of purpose.
