Eiji Takanaka, a former computer hacker, or "netjacker" turned hotshot virtual-reality gameplayer, is plucked from the video arcades and his blossoming romance with the shy Ryo, when his skill in piloting qualifies him for the Garland program.

Plunged into a web of power-politics and intrigue, Eiji crosses paths with the mysterious Sion, discovering a secret plot by E.X.'s rivals, the Orange Amusements corporation, to break SYSTEM's monopoly on the Eden population. But Eiji finds an even greater destiny awaits him, a destiny thousands of years old, where the awakening of EVE, dormant for millennia, signals te rebirth of Eden.

Caught in the crossfire, between the forces of E.X., Orange and Sion's rebel netjackers, Eiji must stop the conflict or face the destruction of mankind's last hope !
