Build your ship, chart your course, and take to the skies alone or with friends and discover clockwork wonders that clash with ancient mysteries in an untamed paradise! Set in the enchanting world of Elysium, where ancient mechanisms coexist with serene skies and breathtaking landscapes, players must set sail for adventure in airships of their own design. Your fleet is more than simple transport, but your base of operations where you can transport supplies, craft materials, and engage in aerial combat against an armada of adversaries. Work alone or with friends in up to 6-player co-op as you uncover the mysteries of a forgotten paradise where danger lurks in the form of soul-powered clockwork beasts. Gather, craft, survive, and grow in power as you fight for survival and across a fractured landscape of diverse environments. Harvest unique resources to craft vital tools, contraptions, and airships, all aiding in your defense and exploration.

A First Look at What We've Been Working On All of this collaboration has a direct impact on the game itself. To give you a glimpse of the updates and previews we share on Discord, here's a sneak peek at some recent work from our technical artist, Karim. These improvements focus on significant enhancements to several animation and combat features. Animations have been smoothed out, with physics now integrated across all player outfits, constructs, and flying constructs allowing details like skirts and capes to trail naturally. The result is a more fluid and dynamic movement for both players and enemies. We've also added new wrench attack animations thanks to an animation import tool. Overall, everything feels smoother, more dynamic, and full of life. We're taking Echoes of Elysium to Early Access because we want to build this game with our community. Too often, games are built in a vacuum—developers spend years creating something in isolation, only to find the world doesn't connect with it. We're a small team, and rather than disappear for years and release something fully formed without player input, we want to build openly alongside our players. Early Access lets us shape Echoes of Elysium together—a survival RPG where the airship truly is your home, and where you survive and thrive in the skies. We know players joining early may encounter bugs as we continue to improve the game, and we want to reward that trust. This is about creating something together.Brian Johnson, CEO & Co-founder, Loric Games Source: Echoes of Elysium Steam Profile Related News Tags: Action Adventure Action RPG ARPG co-op community Delay early access exploration feedback improvements Indie open-world partners PC Gaming Preview resources sci-fi survival Trailer Jan 7th 2026 StarRupture's Early Access Stage Available Now via Steam (4) Jan 13th 2026 Hytale Launched into Early Access, Hypixel Studios Celebrates Milestone Moment (1) Dec 18th 2025 PIONER Launched into Steam Early Access, Dev Team Working on Major Technical Improvements (0) Jan 12th 2026 Stoic Details Towerborne's Upcoming Full Release - Title Exits Early Access on February 26 (1) Nov 29th 2025 Into The Fire Gameplay Showcased at INDIE Live Expo 2025 (1) Jan 12th 2026 Alientrap's DuneCrawl Available Now on Steam (0) Dec 19th 2025 SAMSON Dev Team Confirms Minimum PC Spec Requirements in Extensive FAQ Article (3) Dec 8th 2025 Physics-based Co-op ARPG Cloudheim Available Now via Steam Early Access (3) Dec 19th 2025 No Rest for the Wicked Co-op Open Beta Playtest Available Now (3) Dec 15th 2025 Bungie Goes In-depth with 23-minute-long Vision of Marathon Featurette (11) Add your own on Echoes of Elysium Launches via Steam Early Access on January 27 There are no yet.
