So far, what has been revealed is that the main character is a woman named Eve who is battling Natives, evil monsters that plague the post-apocalyptic city in which she lives. Eve’s character design was created by Hyung Tae, who is also known for doing the character designs for the gameBlade & Soul, a free-to-play mobile MMORPG.
