The punk-rock spirit evident in the game’s dynamic soundtrack, which molds and shapes itself according to the tenor of the on screen action, is merely a reflection of the core fun-focused conceit. It’s an empowered end-times scenario, one in which everyone’s been given a chance to seize life by the balls and reinvent themselves in a world that is without rules and social mores. Sunset Overdrive forgoes the grit and filth of recent apocalyptic fictions like The Walking Dead or World War Z. Now it’s just you and a handful of circumstantial friends up against armies of slavering mutants, kill-all-humans FizzCo robots, and masked, gun-toting bandits (or “Scabs,” as they’re called). When a launch party for the new beverage goes awry and guests start transforming into flesh-hungry beasts, you - a put-upon janitor - flee the scene and fall into a survivor role.

The premise: Sunset City is overrun by orange-blooded mutants. Sunset Overdrive is an empowered end-times scenario in which everyone’s been given a chance to seize life by the balls.
