Sunset Overdrive is a 2014 action-adventure video game developed by Insomniac Games and published by Microsoft Studios. It is set in a fictional metropolis called Sunset City, where the company FizzCo has launched a new energy drink which has turned the people who drank it into mutants known as Overcharge Drinkers. The player controls an employee of FizzCo, who gets trapped in Sunset City when it is quarantined, and must fight off the OD while helping other humans trapped inside. Along with a large arsenal of weapons, the player can wall-run, ride zip-lines, and grind rails to swiftly navigate through the city, with evasion of enemy attacks reliant on maintaining momentum rather than a cover system. The game also has a cooperative multiplayer mode called Chaos Squad, which tasks players to complete a series of missions with seven players.
