About This Game

Story

Echo’s Cry blends intense hack-and-slash combat with rhythm-game precision. Cut through hordes of enemies while striking to the beat, combining the thrill of fast-paced action with the satisfaction of perfectly timed inputs. Fight your way through a dark, gloomy world inspired by the Victorian era, accompanied by a beautifully produced original soundtrack that drives every battle.

Follow Echo as they uncover the long-lost power of music in a twisted, fallen world. After discovering a forgotten instrument hidden deep within their home, Echo begins a mystical journey to rediscover music’s lost magic. With each new instrument mastered, Echo unlocks powerful musical abilities that transform both combat and exploration.

Armed with the power of music, players must battle the demonic forces that have overtaken Echo’s home village—threatening to silence music forever.
