Sylvarcon 2049 – Legacy Edition
Sylvarcon 2049 is a cyberpunk, story-driven cybersecurity experience that sits halfway between a game, a cyber range and a training platform. Instead of pretending to hack, you work with real tools, real virtual machines and real forensic workflows to investigate incidents, break into systems and uncover the truth behind the Lazarus System.
The year is 2049. After a series of devastating pandemics in the 2020s, the world has changed forever. Millions die with every new wave of mutated viruses. Under permanent “emergency laws”, economies collapse, governments fall, and are quietly replaced by pharmaceutical megacorporations — the only entities capable of controlling the strains… and the citizens.
To keep “order” inside quarantined smart-cities, the Lazarus System is deployed: a global infrastructure that scores and classifies every person, deciding who is “worthy” of vaccines and who gets left outside the wall. Its algorithms don’t just protect people — they protect the new status quo.

This Steam build is now a legacy version. Over time, the original Unity client and its backend infrastructure became technically obsolete, and the project was retired and effectively closed on Steam in 2023.
The Sylvarcon universe, however, is not dead. It is being relaunched in a new standalone web-based platform, with:
