The infection
did not end.

It adapted. Beyond the exclusion line, the world is still changing.

ILLUSTRATED LORE / NARCO FALL

A public introduction to the Blackout story. Gameplay systems and regional availability are in development. Illustrations are concept artwork.

CHAPTER I / THE CONTAINMENT

They sealed
the region.

NARCO FALL was once a coastal region of towns, working ports, military installations and research sites. Then the outbreak broke the things people believed would protect them.

Government control collapsed. Communications failed. Streets emptied, but the region did not become quiet. Behind abandoned doors and stalled evacuation lines, the infected kept moving.

When conventional containment failed, nuclear strikes scarred selected parts of the region. Roads closed behind exclusion walls. Checkpoints became borders. The outside world was told to stay away.

The infection survived. In some of the worst-hit places, radiation pushed it into new forms. The operation that was meant to end the danger had changed it instead.

THE WALLS HELD THE REGION. THEY DID NOT END THE INFECTION.
CHAPTER II / THE SEA ROUTE

The roads are sealed.
The sea is not.

Smugglers found what the checkpoints could not close: a route along the coast. Knowledge of that passage became a currency of its own.

It is no public crossing. Weather, exposed landings and uncertain contacts stand between the outside world and the staging areas inside NARCO FALL. Every journey begins with preparation, and a reason to risk the return.

RDC — Reyes De La Cartel — enters under contract. Its expedition teams secure approaches, investigate facilities and recover the research and equipment left behind. Some operations confront designated containment devices and systems.

An opened road does not mean clean ground. Even when an immediate hazard is reduced, radiation, unstable structures and infected threats can remain.

CHAPTER III / THE LIVING

The dead are not
the only story.

For some people, the quarantine is a contract. For others, it is a chance to recover something valuable. For the people still living inside it, the next supply run may be the only plan they have.

Radio signals travel farther than trust. Improvised shelters, ration tables and handwritten warnings mark a population that has learned to survive without certainty. When a route opens, word spreads in fragments.

Food. Medicine. A battery for the radio. There is always something worth going back for.

THREE PERSPECTIVES / ONE QUARANTINE

Everyone needs
something from the dark.

Different motives bring people into NARCO FALL. These are the forces shaping its story.

01 / THE CONTRACTORS

RDC

REYES DE LA CARTEL

Protective gear. Sealed orders. A route into the exclusion zone. RDC is the contracted expedition force investigating facilities, recovering research and confronting containment hazards.

Complete the operation. Bring the team home.
02 / THE OPPORTUNISTS

Extractors

INDEPENDENT RESOURCE HUNTERS

A smuggler’s route is an opportunity. Extractors enter for medicine, equipment and resources that are worth more outside the perimeter. What they find only matters if they can get it out.

Find the value. Survive the way out.
03 / THE LIVING

Survivors

THE PEOPLE LEFT BEHIND

Not everyone wears a uniform. Scattered communities live on rationed supplies, improvised shelters and fragments of radio intelligence. An opened road can mean another day of food, medicine and hope.

Keep the radio working. Keep someone alive.

A smuggler’s knowledge connects the coast to the outside world. Access routes are valuable, dangerous and never quite trustworthy.

A NOTE FROM THE FIELD / PLANNED TERRITORIES

Know the territory.

From first supplies to extreme contamination, preparation changes with the ground beneath you.

01 / LOW THREAT

Find your footing.

The intended lower-risk PvE foothold. Learn the routes, search for everyday supplies and prepare for the territory beyond. Lower risk does not mean an absence of infected.

CHAPTER IV / THE MISSING TRUTH

Someone kept
the records.

The laboratories were abandoned. Their questions were not. A name surfaces in damaged research records: Dr. Elias Veyron.

Fragments speak of a search for life beyond its natural limits. Nobody returning from the quarantine seems to carry the same account of what that research became.

Another name travels over broken channels: the Silent Order. Offshore military silhouettes, restricted equipment and contracts with no clear author suggest that the region is less forgotten than it appears.

Who still controls the information? And why does so much of it lead back inside?

The infection did not end.
It adapted.THE NARCO FALL CHRONICLE
THE WORLD OPENS IN CHAPTERS

One sealed region.
Three horizons.

Paleto first. Then the inland quarantine. Finally, the urban heart of NARCO FALL. A geographical release plan, with no dates announced.

INITIAL RELEASE PLAN

Paleto

THE COAST / MILITARY PERIMETER

The first planned expedition region. A concealed coastal arrival leads to a staging area, contested supply routes and the military exclusion perimeter.

  • Coastal entry & staging
  • Green / Yellow / Red territory
  • First containment operation
  • A major mutant encounter

Initial scope is planned; launch date and playable availability are not announced.

BEYOND THE QUARANTINE / THE CITY CONNECTION

Your expedition.
Your way back.

Blackout can be experienced independently. Its connection to Reyes City is an additional path into the wider Reyes world.

Reyes City is the separate roleplay and economy server. It is not the future urban region shown in the NARCO FALL roadmap, and Blackout’s staging area is not the same place as either city.

The planned extraction bridge links eligible recovered goods to a dedicated Blackout stash in Reyes City. Only an approved extraction route would secure a transfer; finding an item is not the same as bringing it home.

Exact entry procedures, eligible items and transfer timing will be published with the connection details. A scheduled restart or instant transfer should not be assumed.
