Stellar Blade was released in April 2024 and since then it has created a worldwide storm in the gaming community for its protagonist’s design.

Eve, the main heroine in this PS5 exclusive, isn’t just a work of fiction; her physique was precisely created from a 3D scan of South Korean model Shin Jae-eun. Let’s check out more details in this article.

Shin Jae-eun: The Model Behind Eve

She is popularly known as zennyrt on social media and has become a celebrity among gaming fans due to her involvement in the game as ‘Eve.’

She was initially quiet about her position, but since the game’s release, she has embraced it, particularly by wearing Eve-inspired clothes. Her social media presence has expanded, especially since she shared photos of herself wearing Eve’s Holiday Bunny suit and the Keyhole dress, which she promoted on platforms such as Likey(.)me, an alternative to OnlyFans.

Why did they choose Shin Jae?

There was an interview with the game director, Hyung-Tae Kim, who revealed that the decision to create Eve based on Shin was to create an aesthetically pleasing character.

He says, “We thought that her body shape would be a good reference for the character we were pursuing,” Kim added that, while Eve’s face was created in-house, her physical form was directly inspired by Jae-eun’s actual silhouette.

Shift Up, the studio behind Stellar Blade, is known for its emphasis on character design, as shown in its previous release Goddess of Victory: Nikke. Their games frequently include visually appealing characters, and Eve is no exception. This approach to character design has stirred discussions, praise, and criticism, emphasizing the game’s visual focus.

Eve’s customization choices are one of the game’s most notable features. Players can acquire over 30 different Eve outfits, ranging from battle gear to more suggestive apparel. This feature not only improves gameplay but also contributes to the game’s aesthetic ethos by allowing players to heavily customize Eve’s appearance.
