Niko awakens in a dark, unfamiliar house and soon discovers they can interact with an in-game computer that speaks to the player using the username from their own device. The machine tells them that the world they currently inhabit is crumbling and that their mission is to guide them back to their homeworld. In a small, almost ritual moment, Niko finds a sun, a lightbulb, and uses that light to pry the doors of the house open, stepping out into a wasteland that the game calls the Barrens.
