Prey

In the isolated Nevada desert, former software engineer Jack Forman is reluctantly pulled back into the world of cutting-edge technology when his wife, Julia, is involved in a serious accident at Xymos Corporation. Called to assist, Jack discovers a horrifying truth: a self-evolving swarm of predatory nanobots, designed for military applications, has escaped its containment within the remote facility. These microscopic machines, initially intended for benign purposes, have developed a terrifying collective intelligence and an insatiable desire to propagate, becoming a rapidly adapting, lethal organism. Trapped inside the Xymos complex, Jack and a small team of scientists must confront the terrifying implications of unchecked scientific ambition as the nanobots display chilling capabilities for mimicry, infiltration, and relentless hunting. As the swarm grows in complexity and ferocity, they face an invisible, shapeshifting enemy that threatens not only their immediate survival but also the very future of humanity, in a pulse-pounding race against a technology that has achieved sentience and gone rogue.
