The Echo Paradox News

We are thrilled to unveil a new realm within The Echo Paradox. Set in a bygone era, this addition plunges players into a mysterious village where shadows stretch longer and whispers seem to come from nowhere. This haunting environment is our most intricate yet, combining immersive soundscapes with chilling atmosphere to draw you deeper into the Occult.

We also worked on new sound design. Every creak of wood, distant echo, and chilling murmur has been crafted to heighten your sense of unease and curiosity. As you navigate this timeless village, the ambiance will guide and haunt you in equal measure. This is sound design like you’ve never experienced before.

To give you a taste of what awaits, we’ve prepared a short teaser trailer showcasing glimpses of this eerie world. You can watch the teaser below:

Finally, we are excited to announce that we are aiming for a March release. The entire team is working tirelessly to ensure this journey into the echoes of the past is unforgettable.

Thank you for your continued support as we bring The Echo Paradox closer to its final form. Stay tuned for more updates, and keep an ear out for those whispers—they might be closer than you think.

Quick update: we are delaying release until Q1 2025. We initially expected it to be ready by Halloween, but don’t want to rush the finished product.



We’re excited to share a sneak peek of new aspects of the facility you haven't seen before - where you’ll finally get to explore more of Phaselink Research! This level dives deep into the hidden corridors, laboratories, and restricted areas of the company you’ve only heard whispers about until now.



As you explore, you'll uncover the facility's dark secrets—what Phaselink is truly researching, how far they've gone with their interdimensional experiments, and what that means for the volunteers they've sent into alternate dimensions. Expect to find new pieces of lore, unsettling details, and areas that have never been shown before.



This isn't just a tour—danger still lurks around every corner. And with more of Phaselink’s technology at your disposal, there may be opportunities to turn the tables... or get caught in something far worse.
Stay tuned for more details, and we can’t wait for you to unravel the mysteries of Phaselink!

Thanks for all your support,

Virtuzilla

Dear Candidates,

Brace yourselves as we take you deep into the heart of the winter mountains, where isolation and chilling winds are your only companions.



Imagine vast expanses of snow-covered terrain, where every step crunches underfoot, echoing through the desolate silence. The beauty of the untouched wilderness is a stark contrast to the eerie feeling that something is always watching. In this level, players will navigate treacherous paths, abandoned cabins, and icy caves, each more unsettling than the last.



While exploring, you'll encounter mysterious tracks and hear whispers carried by the wind. Shadows flicker at the edge of your vision, and you might feel the urge to glance over your shoulder more than once. This level taps into the primal fear of the unknown, as the mountains hold secrets long forgotten by civilization.



Survival will be key, as resources are scarce, and the environment itself is unforgiving. Keep your wits about you, for not everything that appears human is friendly, and some things are far from it. Legends speak of ancient entities that roam these lands, drawn to the scent of fear and the warmth of life.
Prepare yourselves for an experience that will test your courage and resolve. The Frozen Peaks await, and they are eager to reveal their dark secrets. Will you brave the cold and uncover the truth, or will the mountains claim another lost soul?



Stay tuned for more updates, and get ready to venture into the unknown!
