THE STREAM TEAM

The risk initially pays off for a desperate developer when he steals classified alien tech to save his failing indie game. Young and old alike play the exciting virtual reality adventure, and the game takes off with monumental global success.

Until the glitch.

As more and more people log in, a fatal bug causes players to merge with the evil characters they battle against–taking on their personality traits and abilities outside of the game. The government race to find a solution as even the developer becomes infected and merges with the villainous final boss who is set on taking over the world.

Managing to study how the tech mutated the game, the government's scientists concoct a risky yet necessary plan: To bestow handpicked abilities from the game to their best agents in an attempt to stop the developer.

The government reaches out to local budding pro-streamer Zain for advice on the gaming world, which they know little about. Zain is hesitant to get involved in something so dangerous, but when his parents become infected and join the developer's legion of monstrous goons, it gets personal.

Seeing how clueless the government agents are about gaming, Zain decides to take matters into his own hands. He assembles a ragtag group of online friends and fellow players to join him in taking down the developer. Together, they secretly break into the lab and take on the collected abilities, becoming just like the heroes in their beloved video games.

But being a hero takes more than a fancy suit and superpowers. As the evil boss grows stronger by the hour, Zain must embrace his role as a leader, juggle the egos of his squad, face self-doubt, and overcome debilitating fear for his family. Because the world's fate is at stake, and getting a win has never been more critical.
