According to a press release, 'the film is set in 2045, with the real world on the brink of chaos and collapse. But people have found salvation in the OASIS, an immersive virtual universe where you can go anywhere, do anything, be anyone.'

The creator of OASIS, James Halliday, dies, leaving behind his fortune and a contest to find keys that will lead to the winner taking control of the virtual world.

Wade manages to find the first key, but immediately becomes a target for nefarious forces bent on claiming OASIS and Halliday's immense fortune for themselves.

The unlikely young hero then joins forces with a group of friends who call themselves the High Five to save OASIS and defeat the forces of evil threatening it.
