| “ | Tell me, is it true that all the technology and labor that built this was offered freely? You had no outside funding at all? Indeed. That is one of our fundamental tenets, Satya. Every member of the Collective contributes in whatever way they can. Everyone shares in the fruits of those labors. |

The Collective is a scientific research group. It is a non-profit organization, and it is a fundamental tenet of the Collective that every member contributes in whatever way they can, and that all members share in the fruit of their labor.[1]
The Collective has a presence in Esperança.[2] It appears to be involved in maintenance of the Great Wall.[3]
The Collective owns and operates the Atlantic Arcology.[1]

Trivia[ | ]
- On a Reddit AMA, Team 4 members stated that Esperança has hints of a new faction, and that the faction has ties to an unannounced hero.[4] As terminals bearing the Collective name/insignia can be found on the map, the Collective may be the faction in question.
- If this is the case, it is possible that Lifeweaver is the hero in question, as he is the only hero to be affiliated with the Collective.
