Updated June 8, 2025
New Tales and Emeteria have announced their arrival onto the gaming scene with the reveal of ‘Fading echo,’ an upcoming action-adventure title. The game is in growth for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
First showcased at the Future Games Show, ‘Fading Echo’ centers around the idea that movement, combat, and puzzles can stem from a single source. A trailer demonstrating the fluid movement within the game is now available.
In ‘Fading Echo,’ players assume the role of One, a young Legend capable of transforming between human and aquatic forms. This ability is crucial for exploration, combat, and adapting to ever-changing realities. Movement becomes both a tool and a weapon, whether gliding through pipes as a droplet or crashing down as a water bomb. The game emphasizes systemic interactions, where water, vapor, and elemental forces create unexpected tactical options. Players can cast waves, unleash close-range attacks, and unlock new skills to evolve their playstyle.
The game’s narrative involves saving a fracturing world by rebooting the Ætheric flow and uncovering secrets within one’s bloodline. Players will also encounter the Last wonder, described as a flying whale.
The Echoverse, a fractured multiverse, serves as the game’s setting. Corel, a mysterious planet filled with ancient ruins and unstable portals, is the starting point. Each zone within the Echoverse presents unique challenges, forcing players to adapt and experiment. The game features a comic-inspired art style, creating striking and unpredictable environments.
“We didn’t want to make a backdrop — we wanted to make a world you can mess with,” said Sylvain Sechi,head of studio at emeteria. “Fading Echo is a game where creativity, curiosity, and a little recklessness are always rewarded.”
Cédric Maréchal, co-founder and CEO at New Tales, added that ‘Fading Echo’ is the company’s first fully internal project and a testament to the kind of games they want to create.
The game features a full English voiceover, with talents including Samantha Béart, Jasmine Bhullar, Laura bailey, and Matt Mercer.
“We’ve been incredibly lucky,” said Emmanuel Obert, chief creative officer at New Tales. “What started as a bold indie adventure somehow brought together world-class voice talents, a brilliant composer, and an remarkable writer.”
What’s next
The release date for ‘Fading Echo’ remains unannounced,but gamers can anticipate further updates and gameplay reveals in the coming months as development progresses for it’s PC and console launch.
