Press release:
The Montpellier-based (France) indie games developer Studio Camelia are today very happy and excited to announce that they have just revealed some fresh details about their upcoming turn-based RPG “ALZARA Radiant Echoes” (a game which is currently in development for PC, PS5, PS4, and the Nintendo Switch).

And Studio Camelia did so by releasing a new video interview focused on the soundtrack. Japanese composer Motoi Sakuraba, known for his previous works in the Golden Sun and Dark Souls franchises, dives into his main inspirations for composing the main theme for this new JRPG that can be supported by genre-lovers in Kickstarter.

“As the game takes place in the Mediterranean Sea, I have opted for instruments that conjure the feeling of the Mediterranean, such as the oud, santur, kaval, castanets, and acoustic guitar”, says Sakuraba-san.

“I was drawn to the graphics, with their very distinctive use of color and the warm feeling the images give”.

Alongside Sakuraba-san, Studio Camelia is teaming up with Japanese artist Yoshiro Ambe (Genshin Impact, Fire Emblem Heroes, Trials of Mana), to create the main characters of the game and with Montpellier watercolor artist Marcel Mosqi to design the world map. Read this interview with Ambe to learn more about the heroes, and discover Mosqi’s inspirations here. ALZARA Radiant Echoes is a 3D turn-based JRPG aimed to be released on PC and consoles in 2026.

In ALZARA Radiant Echoes, players explore a fantasy Mediterranean archipelago in a world on the brink of war. The game offers a fresh take on the JRPG genre with a dynamic battle system that allows players to tactically swap heroes and share magical abilities to gain the advantage.

Funded in 48 hours, JRPG fans can still support the Kickstarter campaign until June 14th, wishlist ALZARA Radiant Echoes on Steam, visit the official website for more information, join the official Discord community, and follow Studio Camelia on Facebook, X, Instagram, and LinkedIn for the latest news.
