Story:
The game is set in New York City as a virus infects people and the military attempts to put an end to it. The protagonist of the story is named Alex Mercer, who has enemy-absorbing and shapeshifting powers. He can take memories, experiences, biomass and physical forms of the enemies through absorption. Alex can also shapeshift into more specialized forms for attack, defense or sensory enhancement. All of these together are intended to give players multiple ways to complete their objectives. Parallel to the game's storyline is the ability to play the game as a sandbox-style video game giving the player free roam of Manhattan.
Plot:
Prototype follows the story of Alex Mercer, an amnesia-stricken experiment. As the game begins, Alex wakes up in a mortuary with absolutely no memory of his past. The bewildered man emerges from an underground lab far below the heart of New York City, only to realize that there is a lot more going on in the outside world.
With no familiarity of where he came from or if he is even human, Alex is forced to track down those responsible for his situation and absorb them in order to uncover the truth behind the conspiracy and take vengeance for what has been done to him. He soon discovers that he has the capability to devour the power of those whom he kills, taking their memories, skills, and even their appearance. Above these newfound talents Alex is suddenly thrown into a war involving himself and two different powers. The Blackwatch Special Forces, an unbearably mutated virus-infected population, and the prototype himself all wage war in the streets of New York City. In the midst of this, a mysterious woman named Elizabeth Greene and a group of "Hunters" are accidentally released into the streets.
Mercer makes contact with his sister Dana, and former lover, Karen Parker. While Dana assists Mercer in locating his targets, Karen had promised him a cure for his disease. In reality, she was working for Blackwatch, and manipulated Mercer into stealing genetic material they can use to create a parasite capable of suppressing most of his powers. She then disappears. Blackwatch specialist Cpt Cross then injects it into Mercer, rendering most of his powers useless. With the help of Dr. Ragland, Mercer gains them back, rescuing Dana from a Leader Hunter.
As the conspiracy unfolds, with the assistance of an unidentified contact, the origins of Mercer, the Virus, and Elizabeth Greene are uncovered: in 1969, the government had tested a virus codenamed "Blacklight" in Hope, Idaho. This virus was designed as a biological warfare agent, targeting those of a predetermined race. Elizabeth Greene was the sole survivor of the incident; her body welcomed the virus rather than die from it, and it had rewritten her genetic code, along with that of her son, who was taken from her by Blackwatch and codenamed "Pariah". This inspired the government to continue research into the virus, cooperating with Gentek corporation. Alex Mercer, who worked for Gentek, attempted to steal a vial of the virus, but was pinned down by Blackwatch in Penn Station and was killed on site, not before he smashed the tube containing virus, therefore, releasing the virus. By the time his body was brought to the morgue, the virus had completely taken over his body and placed its genetic structure into his own, literally copying him cell by cell, into the virus.
The contact and Mercer assist the military in releasing a new biological agent "blood tox" underground, in hopes of driving the virus to the surface, allowing Blackwatch to fight it directly. Elizabeth Greene, now a giant monster, comes to the surface, and is killed and consumed by Mercer. He then attempts to absorb McMullen, the Head of Research and founder of Gentek, but McMullen commits suicide before Mercer has the chance. It becomes apparent that the government is prepared to nuke Manhattan to destroy the virus. The contact, revealed to be the specialist Cross, then guides Mercer to consume Colonel Taggart, as means of getting onto the USS Ronald Reagan, where the bomb is being held. Cross betrays Mercer once on the ship, and is revealed to be the Supreme Hunter, an Infected monster spawned from Elizabeth. Cross was consumed by the Hunter and was impersonated, manipulating Mercer into doing its work. It battles Mercer on the deck of the Reagan before getting decapitated. Mercer brings the nuclear bomb miles into the Atlantic Ocean, causing it to detonate underwater, with Mercer getting caught in the blast. However, on shore, he regenerates from a pool of blood and muses on the consequences of his actions, as well as his realization that he has become something both more and less than human, referring to how he became superhuman at the cost of his humanity. After the credits, Manhattan is seen in a recovering state, the virus almost completely destroyed.
