Blackout Memphis

Blackout Memphis is a dark action game driven by high speed, challenging difficulty, and a demanding electronic soundtrack in a world full of violence. The story takes place in an alternative version of Memphis in the early 2000s.

You take on the role of an ordinary family man, worn down by the demands of his exhausting job, the challenges of a long-term marriage with a luxury-loving wife, and raising an extroverted teenage daughter. The constant news coverage of escalating violence in Memphis, citywide blackouts, and everyday struggles increasingly weigh on him. Tormented by sleeplessness on one hand and by brutal nightmares during his rare, brief moments of rest on the other, he experiences frequent memory lapses that make everyday life nearly impossible. This ultimately leads him to seek psychological treatment.

As the medication begins to take effect over time and family life starts to settle down, the city plunges into a blood-red wave of violence. Every day brings new murders and bloody gang crimes. The number of victims is unending. Nightly blackouts become more frequent, unsettling the public. No one feels safe anymore. Why aren’t the authorities doing anything? But something seems off—not just in Memphis. Is everything truly as it seems?

Every shot is lethal. Every punch kills you. Every defeat sends you back to the beginning, while the soundtrack drives you to take on the challenge once more.
