Ashes of Elrant offers more of what fans and media loved: A new land to explore, more than 40 new monsters and bosses, 15 new tracks by mastermind Eddie Marianukroh (and maybe once again an interesting spin by an external band. Remember the turtles? Well, well…), gorgeous pixel art and finally a fishing minigame. Which isn’t mini. Trust us.

The ‘Crimson Wings’ are needed once more!

Ashes of Elrant takes players to a new land, away from Valandis. It is set right before the final fight of Chained Echoes so you can prepare yourself for meeting your beloved heroes once again. The Clan of the Crimson Wings has to answer a call for help from the land of Elrant. A land where nothing is as it seems.

Fans will learn more about the background story of Valandis and also get a deeper look at the characters and their motivations. And with the White Wolf also someone really, really special within the history of Valandis will join the cast.

Chained Echoes: Ashes of Elrant is the official DLC for Chained Echoes releasing August 7th for PC, Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch, expanding the world Matthias Linda created and offering an all new adventure.

December 8th, 2022. Chained Echoes, the long awaited pixel-perfect JRPG developed by Matthias Linda and published by Deck13 Spotlight is OUT NOW – 8th December 2022! Perfectly blending fantasy with Mechs and Airships, the game is out now on PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch and PC and will immerse gamers into a story-driven epic!

A Magnum Opus 7 Years in the Making

After seven years of development, the Magnum Opus from solo developer Matthias Linda, Chained Echoes, a traditional, all encompassing JRPG, inspired by classics of the SNES and PSX era, is finally finished. Gamers from all around the world can now engage in an outstanding JRPG fantasy that is full of exciting challenges and appeal.

Players will find themselves within the continent of Valandis, which, after centuries of war, is finally at peace. However, this world they are in is marked by possible conflict, and rumors that a weapon of mass destruction is an imminent danger. Peace is fragile, conflicts lasting for centuries just won’t disappear, a new war could break loose anytime soon… Can a group of strangers restore peace? Can the weapon be destroyed?

Welcome to the Overdrive!

Chained Echoes is packed; featuring magic, mechs, swords, boss fights, turn-based combat, a complex story and roughly 40 hours of content. While being a turn-based game, the Overdrive Combat System ensures that the fights are fast-paced while still offering massive tactical depth. Creatively tune the skillset of your party and slay even the most vicious foes like a whirlwind!

In Chained Echoes, medieval Fantasy meets modern Steampunk, so get ready for both sword duels and mech fights! An incredible, carefully crafted world awaits, filled with otherworldly creatures, multiple nations of humans and humanoid races, brimming with individual lore and culture for the player to dig into. In the wild, Valandis’ varied environments are a true paradise for adventurers, each with their unique look and special challenges, menacing bosses and exciting secrets!

The new trailer celebrates the release, showing off once more what makes the game stand out: stunning pixel visuals, mecha fights, incredible boss monsters and tons of regions to explore.

The official Soundtrack for Chained Echoes by Eddie Marianukroh includes 50 tracks and is available through bandcamp and Steam.

Chained Echoes will also receive a physical release in Summer 2023 and is now available for pre-order.

Exclusively distributed by First Press Games, it will receive premium physical editions for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PC DVD, with different variants that vary in terms of included goodies and merch. Esoundsignal’s Original Soundtrack as a 2CD release is also on offer separately.
