In 2077, after multiple Relic 1.0 failures, Hellman decided to try out the 2.0 experimental version due to pressure from Yorinobu Arasaka and his investors. Silverhand's mind was later transferred to the Relic.

This caused the link between Alt's engram and body to disconnect, effectively killing physical embodiment in the process and leaving her stranded in the net. Johnny Silverhand mistakenly disconnected Alt from the Netrunner chain, believing she was undergoing a test of some sort. In 2013, Alt Cunningham was abducted by Arasaka and experimented on by Toshiro to test the Soulkiller software.
