Press release:
Frankfurt, 11 June 2016 – Deck13 Games and Radical Fish Games today announce the release of a major content update for the action retro JRPG “CrossCode”. The game – which is currently available via Early Access on Steam – has gotten a massive story update, adding hours of new gameplay into the fictional MMO CrossWorlds (And yes, you are indeed playing an MMO in the game and no, CrossCode ain’t an MMO!).

CrossCode has been in Early Access since May 2015 and since gotten lots of updates. The feedback of the players so far has been super positive. The new areas, Maroon Valley, Faj’ron Temple and Ba’kii Kum which were added in April have now been included into the overall storyline.

CrossCode is a retro-inspired 2D Action RPG set in the distant future, combining 16-bit SNES-style graphics with butter-smooth physics, a fast-paced combat system, and engaging puzzle mechanics, served with a gripping sci-fi story. You follow a player called Lea as she logs into CrossWorlds – a fictional MMO of the distant future. Lea is not your average player though. She hast lost her memory and is (literally) mute. Now the only way to regain her memory is to play CrossWorlds, disovering all the places the game has to offer and meeting other players on the way – hoping they won’t mistake her for a bot.

About Radical Fish Games:
We are a young studio and crazy about details. So we tend to polish our stuff, be it animations, controls, physics or that one pixel in the interface that just didn’t seem right. We like our games with a touching story and deep, fast-paced gameplay. You find those qualities in RPGs, Action-Adventures, Beat’em Ups, and all kind of genres, really. So we think: why not simply mix up those genres and create something new? And since we all grew up in the 16bit area, we add some good ol’ 2D sprite art on top. That’s what we do in a nutshell.
