Josh Futturman, a world-ranked gamer, still lives with his parents and has a dead-end job as a janitor at a sexual disease research centre. His social ineptitude, low self-esteem and prominent inability to approach women can only be matched by his unparalleled prowess at 'The Biotic Wars', a dystopian video game where his character, Future Man, has the top ranking in the world.
When he becomes the first and only person to beat the elusive final level, he's visited by the game's "fictional" characters, Tiger and Wolf, who prove to be all-too-real warriors sent back in time from a desecrated future with the task of recruiting him to save humanity from a deadly super-race invasion.
