Earth, 2065 CE
THE NEPHILIM
Awoken during the climate catastrophe three decades ago, an ever-increasing amount of these giant monsters has invaded Earth.
Nephilim are unnaturally strong and resilient, and travel in hordes, destroying everything in their path. There are many types of Nephilim, most of them ranging from 50 to 70 meters tall, but there might be even larger and stronger titans that we haven’t identified yet…
D.A.W.N.
In the face of the calamities threatening Earth, the Defence Alliance Worldwide Network was established to protect humankind.
DAWN operates from an orbital station known as The Sunrise. That’s where they’ve assembled a team of four unlikely heroes to fight against the Nephilim threat before it’s too late: Aegis Prime, Tempest Galahad, and two Nephilim of their own, Megadon and Ganira.
UNSOLVED MYSTERIES
Humankind is struggling to survive in a world razed by colossal monsters, and survival is everyone’s highest priority.
But some began to wonder about the Nephilims’ ancient origins and bizarre nature. DAWN’s own Professor Maki believed he had achieved a breakthrough in his research… only to mysteriously disappear shortly after. Can his successors unravel the truth?
