Release Date: July 20, 2017
A first-person action game developed by Ready at Dawn (creators of The Order: 1886). The story featured in Lone Echo is set in the year 2126. The player assumes the role of an android named Jack, who serves at a space ship. When the vessel bumps into an interstellar anomaly things get messy and it is Jack who has to handle the aftermath of the accident.
Lone Echo is a sci-fi first-person action game, developed by Ready At Dawn. The developer has previously made the acclaimed games God of War: Ghost of Sparta and The Order: 1886 – both those games were released on Sony’s consoles, but this time the creators prepared a title designed solely for the PC.
Lone Echo for PC takes you far into the future, to the year 2126, letting you play as an android named Jack. The hero, along with several other robots, serves at a space ship. When the vehicle bumps into an interstellar anomaly things get messy and it becomes your job to handle the aftermath of the accident.
The events in Lone Echo are presented in first-person perspective. Because the protagonist operates under zero gravity conditions, moving around in-game locations requires the players to use their hands – using motion controllers dedicated for VR headsets you grab virtual walls and railings in order to push or pull yourself in the desired direction. While playing you visit not only futuristic insides of the ship, but you can also take a walk in the cosmic space. An important element of Lone Echo are its environmental puzzles, which require performing actions like repairing broken ship’s modules etc.
Apart from a single player campaign, the game offers team-based multiplayer. Two five-person teams rial against one another, trying to throw a flying disc into the opponent’s goal. This is also played in zero gravity environments.
Just like it was in the case of the previous games of the studio, Lone Echo for PC is characterizd by high-quality graphics – both character models and environments were designed with great care for detail, and the visuals are further enhanced by advanced particle effects. In order to play the game you need a VR headset and dedicated motion controllers.

Game Ratings for Lone Echo Video Game.
COGconnected: 90 / 100 by Felix Wong
For the first time ever, I truly felt like I was in space, an experience only made possible with the power of virtual reality.
Destructoid: 9 / 10 by Patrick Hancock
I think VR developers are getting the hang of things. I'm no longer suggesting friends pick up titles because "it's a good way to kill 20 minutes," but rather because these are video game experiences worth having and enjoying. Lone Echo strikes an exciting balance between exploration and puzzles that make space seem like a playground for the player. It really nails the relationship between the two main characters and does a great job of telling an interesting, if a bit predictable, story thanks to a unique conversation mechanic and great voice acting.
GameCrate: 8.5 / 10 by Leo Parrill
Lone Echo is a smart VR experience that handles movement exceptionally well. It's one of the most polished and engaging VR games currently available.
