Fracture is an action game for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, developed by Day 1 Studios and published by LucasArts.

In the year 2161, climate change has ravaged the United States, destroying the Midwest entirely and creating a geographical divide between the West Coast and the East Coast, which form separate societies: The Republic of Pacifica and The Atlantic Alliance. The Pacificans believe genetic modification is the path to the future, while The Alliance lean on technology. When the Atlantic President outlaws genetic modification in response to a supposed Pacifican plot against him, conflict breaks out and it's up to Jet Brody to infiltrate Pacifican territory and diffuse the threat.Official Site: Fracture
