Scope is the social platform inside Ananta’s setting. It is the app the Captain and the residents of Nova City post to, and it is where the game’s influence loop is meant to play out. In Chinese-language material the platform is called 眼界; the Japanese and Korean builds keep the Latin name.
This page covers Scope as an in-fiction place. For the gameplay layer built on top of it, including how reputation and influence convert into progression, see Social Media Influence System.
The Platform
Scope is presented under the tagline “Turn Your Visions into Vibes”, and it sits alongside Characters, Locations and News as a first-class section of the game’s own website rather than as marketing copy about the game. The Japanese build keeps the name Scope and localises only the tagline.
That the platform exists in-world rather than only on the website is confirmed by the game’s own store copy: where the English text says a strike deserves to go viral, the Chinese text says it deserves 眼界热搜, a Scope trending topic. Scope is the place going viral happens.
The Feed
The site hosts a browsable Scope feed of posts written in character by Nova City residents, businesses and public bodies. Several accounts carry a verified badge. Each post shows a like count, a separate hot figure, and a comment count, and many carry hashtags.
The feed is the single most useful window on the setting in public materials, because it names places and organizations in plain text that appear nowhere else outside key art.
Account | What it posts |
|---|---|
Public-safety notices. One reports a gang fight near Southern Road and says the agency’s Aegis Nexus Team is on-site, advising the area to evacuate. | |
Nova Aegis Nexus | Incident reporting. One post covers a Chaos event at Aerie Bank with the Aegis Nexus Task Force responding; another says the A.C.D suspects a new type of Chaos and asks residents to report incidents. |
Product and brand posts from the confectionery company, including its manga tie-in. | |
Bike Knight | A courier account, in the same street-level register as Cat Express. |
Frosty Scoops | A neighbourhood ice-cream business. |
Ordinary residents post about Chaos incidents, traffic, gigs and their jobs, which is the same ambient storytelling the in-game feeds are described as producing.
Names That Appear Only Here
Several proper nouns are attested in the Scope feed and, so far, nowhere else in official text: Nova Aegis Nexus, the Aegis Nexus Task Force attached to the N.C.C.A., Southern Road, Golden Coast, a teahouse called Tea Without Thought, and the abbreviation used by the Lingjing Supervisory Agency. Note that the Aegis Nexus Task Force belongs to the N.C.C.A. and not to the A.C.D..
In the Game
Both the player character and NPCs maintain feeds. Official copy frames social media as a secret weapon used alongside investigation and combat. Players can browse the feed on their character’s phone, and can examine NPC phones to read their messages and chat histories.
What Has Not Been Confirmed
The like, hot and comment figures on the published posts are in-fiction dressing. No official material has connected them to a player-facing follower or influence number, and no official material states whether the in-game Scope feed is the same feed published on the website or a separate one generated during play. Whether players can post to Scope themselves, rather than having posts generated by their actions, has also not been stated.
