Imagine a game where you play as a charming little robot, venturing across the great wide world where the scrap metal doesn’t diminish the flowers’ abundance and vibrancy. And despite playing as a robot, your journey is deeply human. Now imagine all of this was inspired by one man’s illustrations. That’s how Echoes: A Transmissions Story came to be.

Developer Hashcode Digital, publisher Super Rare Originals, and illustrator of the Transmissions collection, Matt Dixon, have officially announced their upcoming game, Echoes: A Transmissions Story, which will be available on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2!
