Scenes

Scene summaries may contain spoilers
1
Janine suggests using a sprinkler system to avoid being overrun by lava. While you run you hear from Jules; if you and Jamie manage to make contact, the crew of the nuclear submarine, Undaunted, would rather die than fire on the UK.
2
Sigrid taunts you and Jamie, to the annoyance of Veronica, who's made a breakthrough on controlling ANNIE. You just about turn on the sprinklers, but now have to outrun a cloud of steam!
3
Even if you stop the nuclear launch, Sigrid will still have Veronica and ANNIE. Whatever Veronica's doing to ANNIE stops you entering the subsidiary control room, so you'll have to find another way.
4
Veronica's changed ANNIE in such a way that you can't out run her. Luckily, despite being with Sigrid, Veronica is still on your side. She uses her control of ANNIE to help you.
5
Finally you and Jamie make it to the subsidiary control room and hack into Sigrid's signal. As she orders the Undaunted to launch missiles Sam and Jules cut in, explaining the situation, convincing them not to fire. One problem solved, now you just have to reach Sigrid.
6
Inside the main control room Sigrid holds you at gunpoint, while she orders ANNIE to launch a boat. Veronica thinks she can still help you catch up, but you'll have to hurry.
7
As you run, Veronica talks you and Sam through her plan; inspired by Moonchild, she can transfer her personality into ANNIE to fix the AI, but it means destroying her brain.
8
Even with her body gone, Veronica is still helping you. She instructs you to vent the magma in the direction of Sigrid's boat, and it completely engulfs her. The land has claimed its own.
9
Sam and Janine discuss Veronica's new 'situation', but she has bigger things on her mind. She turns your attention to a V-Type zom, as it bites a corpse, and brings it back to life. Even zombies you thought were destroyed are rising again!
