Echi a catena JRPG a pilotaggio meccanico in stile SNES’ Tocca l'interruttore a dicembre

If you’re a fan of 16-bit RPGs in the Crono trigger mould, you’ve probably been keeping an eye on Matthias Linda’s upcoming Echi incatenati, a gorgeous-looking homage to that style of top-down RPG experience. Set in a world of mechs and dragons, it’s been on our radars for a while, and it’s finally got a release date: 8il dicembre.

A new release date announcement trailer (al di sopra) shows off some of the characters, locali, and gameplay from the upcoming game, a one-man project which has been in development for the past seven years.

Game Pass subscriber on PC and Xbox, tu sei? Bully for you — this will be on the service on Day One. As compensation (bene, può essere), PC, PS4, and Switch players will have the opportunity to buy the game physically through First Press Games in a series of increasingly lovely (and increasingly expensive) edizioni fisiche, ranging from the €49,99 Regular Edition to the €300 Super Limited Edition, nella foto qui sotto. They’re all available to peruse and order via First Press Games’ sito web.

We spoke to Linda recently about the game and the inspirations behind it, so check that out if you’re interested to know more.
