Developer Xinyuan Studio, a Chinese studio under Bilibili, announced that Neon Echo, a 3D side-scrolling action Roguelite game with an anime and tech-wear style, is currently available for early access on Steam for US$14,99. The game will support English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Korean text, as well as Chinese and English voiceovers!
Neon Echo is a roguelite action game about surviving in a world invaded by the noise that turns humans into monsters. The only thing that can counter the mutation of the Noise is the groovy EDM played on electronic instruments! In this game, players take control of the power of EDM and embark on a journey to eliminate the noise.

Players can find their own fighting paces following the electronic music in the game and decide whether to fight on the beats of the music. If they hit the beats, skills will have unexpected changes. When players enter a special status of Neonization, the BGM will be replaced with more intense electronic music. The developers recommend playing with headphones for a better experience.
The Early Access version of Neon Echo contains three challenging chapters, and each chapter consists of a random combination of 400 battlefields, each with its own monsters. Being a rougelite, the game has no gameplay run that will ever be the same. Three playable character classes can be chosen: Tachi Warrior, Gunner, and Boxer. Each of them also has different talents and skills and possesses both Common and Neon forms.
