Overthrow is a work by Axel Ripert, a student in the Illustration Concept Art section at ESMA (class of 2022).

We are in the year 2660 in a world where everyone has superpowers. However, for the last few hundred years, this world has been ruled by a dystopian government that implants a microchip in the brain of every individual and every newborn child. Any time they slip up or use their power, the individual in question is immediately annihilated. However, several of the planet’s inhabitants have escaped the implant. They will join forces to finally overthrow this government.

I wanted to produce a concept artbook for a video game in which I develop its universe, its story, its settings, its characters… It was obvious for me to conceptualise a video game, because it’s one of my greatest
dream of mine!
