Lone Echo 2, the sequel to developer Ready at Dawn’s acclaimed 2017 zero-gravity VR adventure, will miss its previously announced 24th August release date, and is now expected to launch on Oculus devices some time “later this year”.
Lone Echo 2 catapults protagonists Captain Olivia Rhodes and player-controlled android Echo One (nicknamed “Jack”) 400 years into the future, where an abandoned space station holds the key to returning home. Pre-release glimpses suggest it’ll deliver another bout of moody sci-fi adventure built around zero-gravity traversal and puzzling, with Ready at Dawn promising “complex challenges” and “startling discoveries” as its “emotional” far-future story unfolds.
Lone Echo 2 was originally announced all the way back in 2018 for a release the following year, but the game has see multiple delays along the way – the most recent due to development challenges involving the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. And now Ready at Dawn has confirmed it’ll be pushing launch back once more in a post to its blog.
