Press release:
Frankfurt / Germany, January 19th 2021.
The indie games developer Matthias Linda and video games publisher Deck 13 are today very pleased and excited to announce that their upcoming JRPG “Chained Echoes” will feature a song by the British mathcore band ZILF!

Furthermore, Matthias Linda and Deck13 has also just announced that “Chained Echoes” is coming to PC via Steam in Q4 2021.

“Chained Echoes”, once it launches, will come along with a full soundtrack fitting perfectly well for the JRPG from Germany. And yet, there will be one track in the game generating some real noise: Publisher Deck13 and developer Matthias Linda have entered a cooperation with brithish mathcore band ZILF.

Chained Echoes is coming along well and more news about the game will drop throug 2021 – but we would like to start this year with a true headbanger. While fans already knew that the JRPG would get a massive soundtrack, a little surprise sneaked into the game.

As expected, the game will also feature certain minigames. Including a Turtle Race. This race will also feature an exclusive song by British Mahcore band ZILF. The song was exclusively written for Chained Echoes and offers 15 seconds of pure headbanger-awesomeness.

“When we got asked to write a 15 seconds mathcore song for a bunch of turtles racing each other in a pixelart JRPG game”, says the band,

“We answered “That’s the most ZILF thing we’ve ever heared.”

The Full Song got revealed with a short gameplay-trailer: Click here.

“Chained Echoes” is set to release at the end of 2021 on PC, Nintendo Switch and PlayStation. Players can expect a classic JRPG with its very own twists: While set in a fantasy world, “Chained Echo” also features custmoizeable airships and huge Mechs. The story driven game will feature a easy to learn but hard to master turn-based combat system and no weird random encounters: Every fight, every area will be handcrafted.

Features:
– Fast paced turn-based battles
– No random encounters: enemies can be seen running around all the time

– Travel and fight by foot or in your own Mech
– Customize your own airship
