Echo Generation: Midnight Edition announced for Switch

Echo Generation, which first came out in 2021, is now heading to Switch as part of a Midnight Edition. It launches on June 19, 2024.

Echo Generation, a turn-based adventure game with a supernatural twist, will come with some new features for its Switch release. Expect visual upgrades, new camera controls, combat updates, fast travel, a quest log, and language support to a dozen languages.

Here’s some additional information about the title:

After a series of bizarre occurrences following an unexplainable crash, an inquisitive crew of neighborhood kids pauses the production of their short film to investigate secrets hiding in the cornfields. With the adults none the wiser, Dylan and his friends set out to uncover a conspiracy and save their home town before the end of summer!

Investigate every nook and cranny of charmingly suburbian streets. Collect key items and clues from each and every resident – human, squirrel, or otherwise. Pay visits to a pet cemetery, poke around in creepy neighbors’ basements, and discover the truth lying beneath the pleasant veneer of Maple Town.

Encounter and battle the paranormal at every turn of the investigation. Face zombie werewolves, fire-breathing animatronics, monstrous trucks, smack-talking trash pandas, and other unnatural horrors in turn-based combat. Recruit a flock of furry friends to back up the kids in battle, and don’t forget to pack stat-healing treats for all!

Indulge in Echo Generation’s own brand of nostalgia, pairing a delightfully classic tale reminiscent of ‘80s and ‘90s coming-of-age films and horror novels with Cocoucumber’s signature voxel art style. An original synthwave soundtrack composed by Pusher harmonizes with the world’s wistful, yet chilling atmosphere.

Director Martin Gauvreau said today: “After concluding the Voxel Trilogy with Ravenlok, we were determined to perfect the series with all we’d learned from our production journey. We’re so proud of how far we’ve come in developing our unique approach to adventures that are as mysterious as they are memorable.”
