Note on origin of game and background taken from IGN preview:

"Regarding the game's title, you're urged to get over it. Dystopian as its setting may be, the game known as Huxley has next to nothing to do with Brave New World, however tempting such comparisons may be. During candid conversations, however, Webzen employees might admit to you that they had, at one point, toyed with a subtitle that referenced Huxley's novel, but decided against it lest they rouse the late author's possibly-litigious estate."


The only similarity I can locate in the design other than the title is in the Hybrids being classed out Alpha-Epsilon as were the citizens in Brave New World. Brave New World dealt with a strict cradle to grave goverment control system. Huxley the game appears to be a near anarchy state of life.

Just an addendum :D
