Vanquish has returned to Illmoor after an age in exile, and none can stand against him.

To make matters worse, the continent's greatest hero has become a vessel for the dark god's spirit and a relentless army of possessed zombies has been formed out of the mindless people of Dullitch.

With nothing but a pitiful band of crusaders fighting for freedom, the cities of Illmoor are falling one by one.

Hope is fading fast! And yet there is one - ancient and powerful enough to challenge the dark god.

Can Illmoor unite to face its greatest enemy yet?
