In this science-fiction scenario, surrounded by chaos and powerful futuristic weapons, a new fighter named Chrono rises, who aspires to become a legend and the inspiration of many, being the hero who will take care of the entire chaos of this world.

However, something that many of the players will be wondering is what the identity of Chrono, since it was previously known through leaks that a global superstar would collaborate with the famous Battle Royale.
