Redline is a post-apocalyptic combination first-person shooter racing video game developed by Beyond Games and published by Accolade. After nuclear war at the turn of the century, the citizens living on Earth in a post-apocalyptic year 2066 are divided into two distinct groups The Insiders are the descendants of the wealthy corporations responsible for the devastation and live privileged lives inside of dome cities, while the Outsiders are those who live outside the domes, living on the scraps remaining of civilization.

Outsider communities tend to degenerate into gangs, who rule through brute force and use their Battle Wheels combat vehicles to retain control. Most of the gangs are collections of angry, twisted individuals brought together by common goals and a common hatred of everyone else.

Feared by all are the dreaded Red Sixers, crazed cannibalistic mutants created by the negative life energy produced by the dying world. The Sixers, requiring constant sustenance prey on all the other inhabitants of the wasteland. When the Red Sixers attack and destroy the town of Stadium City, one inhabitant swears revenge. Managing to drive off the Red Sixers' leader, Rant, this young rookie's deeds gain the attention of another gang, The Company. He is recruited into their ranks and sent on a variety of missions to wage war on rival gangs.
