8 Months after defeating Vilgax and receiving the completed Ultimatrix from Azmuth, Ben Tennyson's life is in ruins.
The Plumbers are splintered, public trust in heroes has crumbled, and alien tech floods the streets. After an incident with his powers, Ben is discharged from the force and branded a liability-the fallen face of heroism, and blamed by the public for the years of alien shenanigans on planet Earth.
And in the middle of it all, the one person he thought would stay-walked away.
Now hunted for operating without a Plumber license, Ben drifts through cities that once cheered his name, watching them drown in fear, corruption, and alien crime.
He had long since believed that the universe was done with him.
But when a chance encounter pulls him into an ancient multiversal war, Ben must face the darkest versions of himself lurking in the void-and decide whether the hero the world gave up on is gone forever... or ready to rise one last time.
