Character Concept Artist (Anime / Honkai: Star Rail / ZZZ)
A mobile midcore project for the Asian market focusing on female characters
About the Project
A mobile game on Unreal Engine 5, primarily targeted at the Asian market with a large number of cutscenes. The cutscenes stylistically lean towards a collective image of shonen anime.
The setting and visual aesthetic — various worlds and universes based on myths and legends from different countries. Intertwining fantasy and sci-fi, traditional imagery with modern reinterpretations and technological elements. Similar to Zenless Zone Zero and Honkai: Star Rail.
Each character has two forms: a stylized full-body version and a cute chibi version.
The project is in the production stage. The first soft launch is planned for early 2027.
