A helicopter flying over Foret Town is attacked by a mysterious monster. The only survivor is an amnesiac who was sealed in a metal crate. After being ambushed by monsters on the town's outskirts, he discovers that he can transform into a powerful werewolf. He continues on to discover who he is, and why he was sent to Foret Town.

When players control as Luke, they are not very strong. But he is able to transform into a werewolf, which can perform high jumps in addition to becoming incredibly powerful. Fighting monsters will give Luke DNA data that will allow him to upgrade his beast attacks for more powerful combos. More beast forms can be discovered, each with their own special powers to overcome previously impassable obstacles.

Players take on the role of a special military operative in a team, sent to a small West Coast town to investigate a deadly genetic outbreak. Quickly the team realise that their mission is a battle for survival as they are hunted by all manner of monster.

With bullets unable to hold back these unholy beasts, the team are forced to manipulate their own DNA systems in order to survive. Changing into a Werewolf, Dragon, Minotaur and many more, you will take on wave after wave of the mutated genetic monsters. As the line between human restraint and primal instinct blurs, nothing is left but the savage desire to uncover the true nature of the beast.

* Morph into more than eight creatures, each with their own combat techniques and skills.
* Manipulate your Genetic DNA system to assign powerful and strategic attributes to each beast
* Graphic CG sequences show the horrific transformations from man to beast.
* Huge 3D areas to explore, each with its own monstrous boss to defeat.
* Uncover clues and follow a twisted tale of genetic experimentation to discover your true origin.
