About this game
Discover ÆTHER RUSH – The first game in the AFTERLIFE franchise
ÆTHER RUSH is a semi-open exploration-adventure game with delivery mechanics, set in the AFTERLIFE universe. You play as an independent courier in Lumina, a vertical cyberpunk city where ASTRAEN and DOVAREN clash for control of Æther. As a direct prequel to AFTERLIFE, this game is a key technical and narrative pillar of the universe.
As a mercenary courier, you must navigate the suspended heights of Lumina—floating platforms, aerial docks, and crowded corridors. Every Æther delivery is a challenge: prepare your vehicle, optimize routes, dodge surveillance drones, and manage an unstable resource. Your alliances shape your reputation and opportunities: work for ASTRAEN, side with the DOVAREN, or remain neutral to thrive in the chaos.
Plan routes and customize modules to complete missions.
Gain reputation and rewards with ASTRAEN or DOVAREN.
Explore platforms, aerial corridors, and corrupted zones of Lumina.
Upgrade engines, armor, and tools to deliver faster and farther.
