A century of history
flashes before your eyes
Not the past, but the future.
And now you know
how life would unfold
over the next 100 years.
There are so many things
that could happen over 100 years.
The population of the planet
could continue to grow.
Technologies would change.
Diseases would be eradicated.
The human impacts of climate change
could worsen.
But no one can see the future.
Except for you, of course.
And you're about to witness it all.
You can witness the future of video games with Mech Arena.

Maybe.
By the year 2025,
you'd see how India surpassed China
and became the most populated country
in the world.
Its population would grow to
over 1.44 billion people.
You’d also see some of the
continued effects of global warming.
The Arctic would become ice-free
for several months of the year.
Between July and November,
polar bears would struggle to live
on the disappearing ice sheets.
And while the Earth would undergo
these dramatic changes,
we'd also lose contact with the Voyager I
reporting back from space.
This deep space probe has been carrying
a gold-plated disk
containing sounds and images from Earth
since its launch in 1977.
By the year 2030,
you’d get a small dose of positive news.
The battle against malaria
would be close to victory.
In 2017, there were around
216 million cases of the disease.
But the widespread use of mosquito nets,
treated with insecticides,
would almost eliminate it.
But things would get seriously
shaken up in California.
A major earthquake would hit
along the roughly 1,300 km (800 mi) long
San Andreas Fault.
The damage would be enormous,
with thousands of deaths and injuries,
as well as billions of dollars in losses.
Jumping ahead to the year 2050,
and you'd find that
robots have taken over many jobs.
They'd be running the hospitals,
transportation and security.
Your wages would go down.
And traditional manufacturing jobs
would likely be non-existent.
On the bright side,
based on current research,
you could see a universal basic income
implemented in many parts of the world.
Hopefully, you’d also see
a complete transition of
energy resources from
fossil fuels to carbon-neutral ones.
Wind or solar power
could be providing nearly
all of the world’s electricity.
Despite all efforts to move
to green and renewable energy,
global warming wouldn't go anywhere.
And by the year 2060,
global temperatures would’ve increased
by over 3 °C (5.5 °F).
If you lived along the coastline,
you'd see your home devastated
by rising sea levels and intense storms.
New York City would likely build
massive sea walls to protect
from frequent mass flooding.
And that would cost
hundreds of billions of dollars.
Fast-forwarding a few years to 2068,
you would see humans get faster
thanks to optimized workouts,
innovative technological implants
and muscle-enhancing devices.
You'd witness an impossible world record
set in the 100 m (328 ft) sprint.
At this point, people could become bionic.
all kinds of nanotechnologies
that monitor health or do fun things
like make your skin glow
with different patterns or colors.
By the 2090s,
humans would get creative
about ingesting their proteins.
There’d be no more consumption
of traditional meats like beef or pork.
They’d be out of fashion
due to their enormous carbon footprint
that right now accounts for 14.5%
of the world’s greenhouse gases.
Instead, you'd be eating
fully lab-grown or plant-based meat.
But livestock industries wouldn’t be
the only thing facing extinction.
Many languages would disappear
by the year 2090.
English and Mandarin would likely
compete as the two most dominant
languages spoken
everywhere on the planet.
At the dawn of the next century,
you could witness technology
that would allow us to control
extreme seismic events
like earthquakes and tsunamis.
We’d have an incredible knowledge
of what’s going on below the surface
and could accurately predict
where and when
these events would occur.
Finally, at the end
of your journey through the future,
in the year 2121,
you’d reach the point where you could
upload your mind to a computer.
Congratulations,
you’ve achieved immortality.
Now, get back to the present
and help make some of those
good things happen.
After all, if you could see the future,
could you change it?
Well, you already know
what I'm about to say.
That's a story for another WHAT IF.
