THE PREMISE

Endlessly Rebuilt

Echo is an artificial consciousness. Endlessly recurring, endlessly rebuilt.

Deep in the desert stands the Echo Core, the only thing holding the dimensional rifts in check. When the rifts tear open, the swarm pours through.

Place turrets, rig gas barrels for chain explosions, hold the line through sandstorms and bioluminescent nights, and push further than the last Echo ever did. Alone or with a friend in online co-op.

WHAT AWAITS

Features

Endless Waves

Survive escalating waves of dimensional entities and level up your skills as you go. No checkpoints: every wave pushes harder, every run pushes you further.

Hundreds of Enemies

Up to 500 enemies on screen at once. The desert does not send scouts. It sends a tide.

Turrets and Gas Barrels

Deploy and upgrade turrets, place explosive gas barrels and trigger chain reactions that wipe out whole packs.

Online Co-op

Team up through Steam and defend the Core together. Two Echoes, twice the firepower.

First or Third Person

Switch between FPS and TPS at any moment. Pick the view that fits the fight.

Sandstorms and Rifts

Dynamic sandstorms, day and night cycles, and rifts that open without warning reshape every battle.
