Set primarily in a fictionalized 1985 Japan, 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim follows thirteen protagonists from eras ranging from World War II to the distant future. Through non-linear 2D exploration and narrative segments, they uncover hidden truths in a simulated world—and then pilot colossal mechs called Sentinels in real-time strategy battles to fend off Kaiju-like invaders known as the Deimos. As their intertwining stories converge across time, they race to break a catastrophic cycle threatening all of humanity.
