Giran Military Skin Market concept with era-based Asake characters and collection rewards

01 / The problem

What could Asake’s music, identity and journey become as an interactive game universe?

02 / The approach

  1. 01Imagined an open-world setting rooted in Lagos, with story missions, driving, combat, music unlocks and empire-building concepts.
  2. 02Visualised the world through a game poster and a mission scene at a petrol station.
  3. 03Designed a Skin Market concept around different chapters of Asake’s journey, with character outfits, rarity tiers, points and collection rewards.

03 / Outcome

  • A visual exploration of an Asake-inspired entertainment IP, spanning the game world, character progression and collectible skins.
  • Independent concept artwork, not a released game or an official Asake commission, partnership or endorsement.
