Press release:
In case you missed it, Echobreaker, the lightning-fast precision platformer from Hellboy: Web of Wyrd developer Upstream Arcade and publisher Weekend Games, will be screeching onto Windows PC via Steam on August 6.

In a futuristic sci-fi setting where speed is power and employees are disposable, you’ll push your experimental armoured rig to the limit, while risking your own health in the process.

Recruited as a pilot for TDS Industries, you have one goal: be the fastest. Jump into the driving seat of their mech combat suit and race through hand-crafted levels to reach the top of the global leaderboard. Access time-saving routes and take down enemies to progress as fast as you can.

Fuelling you is your Temporal Echo Drive; dangerous, terrifying, and improbably powerful. Engage your TED and access time-bending abilities to shave precious seconds off of your time. Go again and again as you aim to be the best, racing against your ghost until you’re satisfied.

Key Features of Echobreaker

Find your perfect line: Test your reflexes and hone your rig mastery. Fracture and manipulate time itself to boost your top speed.

Can you become number one?: Compete against other players on the global leaderboard, show off your badges to friends or simply compete with your ghost as you try to break both personal and world records across each of the 15 tracks.
Are you up to the challenge?: Raise the stakes on each level with new challenge modifiers that have you rethinking your lines and beating the best times on a new leaderboard.

Flow state focus: Step into a sci-fi world drenched in gorgeous neon colour, where every track is something to be solved and mastered.

Echobreaker will be released on Windows PC via Steam on August 6, 2026.
