Be efficient, responsive, and speedy!
Every second counts.
Lives depend on us, so let’s show them why The Gévaudan is the best in the business!
Mercury looms in the distance as the crew of a repair and rescue vessel known as The Gévaudan readies themselves for departure. A concerning SOS signal has brought them to the outskirts of a mining station that suddenly went dark a few hours prior.
Captain Gus Gaston, his soon-to-be wife Mirabelle, second-in-command Ariel, and his brave team know their mission: breach the blacked-out station, provide support to the crew, and turn the power back on. Though she's reluctant, Mirabelle is swayed by her fiancé's plight of mercy on the stranded crew, knowing her expertise in electrical engineering may be the only thing that can save the stranded vessel.
The seemingly simple mission is turned on its head as they find themselves standing face-to-face with a BEAST that prowls the darkness. The infamous Doctor Elsa Lumière's once-revered security program, The BEAST Protocol, is on the hunt, and it quickly sets its sights on the crew of The Gévaudan...
