Dead Trash is a grim first-person action game set in a city that has been crushed by years of brutal lockdown and quarantine. In this ruined world, the government has abandoned the population and now sends hazmat teams to wipe out anyone still inside, whether they are infected or not. That premise alone gives the game a harsh, oppressive tone, and it sets the stage for a story where survival feels less like victory and more like delaying the inevitable.

Years after a ruthless quarantine sealed it off, a once-bustling metropolis has been reduced to a ghost town overrun by feral, mindless infected. The abandoned city is left to rot under a strict government lockdown—anyone found inside, human or infected, is terminated by relentless hazmat squads determined to keep the outbreak contained and protect a terrifying secret buried beneath the streets.
