Echo Generation Brings Stylish Canadian Fun to PC, Xbox, and Game Pass in October

Xbox Game Pass is getting an extra injection of Canadianawith  the launch of Echo Generation next month. Coming from Toronto-based developer Cococucumber, Echo Generation sports a fun retro vibe that’s one part Earthbound, one part Stranger Things, with a slick “elevated Minecraft” visual style that really sets it apart. Combining traditional adventure-game-style investigations with turn-based RPG battles, the game should appeal to a wide audience, but particularly to Canucks (the game’s main character literally sports the maple leaf on the back of his jacket and does battle with a hockey stick). You can check out a new trailer for Echo Generation, below.
