Livelock’s story trailer tells you what happens after the fall of the world

[AL:LiLo]When the end of the world happens, do not worry. It just means that something pretty awesome is about to happen.

That’s the message of Livelock’s official story trailer, which traces the history of the apocalypse and the rise of a new breed of humanity (as robots). Hey, even a robot shooter needs its lore, right?

“You, Intellect, were discovered by SATCOM and you are humanity’s last hope,” the trailer description states. “If you don’t step forward to answer destiny’s call, humanity may never rise again.” So don’t disappoint us, readers.

Livelock is launching next week on August 2nd as a $20 buy-to-play title. Get the full scoop on Livelock’s backstory after the jump!
