Story

Set in 1916 during the First World War, NecroVisioN casts the player as Simon Bukner, a young American recently recruited into the British Army. His war begins on the battlefields of the Somme, where a counterattack against the German lines collapses into carnage under machine gun fire and mustard gas. Separated from his squad, Simon is drawn into a nightmare that reaches far beyond conventional warfare. A rumor has spread through the trenches of a mysterious infection, one that twists stricken men into a zombie-like state, and the horrors soon prove all too real. Alongside German soldiers, Simon finds himself confronting supernatural forces, including the walking dead, hell hounds, and stranger creatures rising from the mud and ruins. As he fights through the shattered trenches, he glimpses signs that something far more sinister is unfolding beneath the ordinary brutality of the war, and begins to suspect a deliberate, malevolent hand at work behind the manifestations tearing through the front.
