The first playable demo for Synduality: Echo of Ada appeared at Tokyo Game Show 2023. Bandai Namco also provided gameplay footage of the demo build on its livestream. It shows how the player can use their Cradle Coffin mech to explore the world’s regions while gathering items and destroying hostiles.
Players will find containers that contain lootable items. They can also use AO Search to detect nearby mineable AO Crystals. When players reach a yellow spot, they can send their companion Magus to investigate it directly.
The initial reveal for Synduality: Echo of Ada mainly teased PvPvE combat where players can engage others with conflicting objectives. The demo footage showed that players can also send friendly greetings and even ask to form a party. Rain in this world will gradually corrode the unit’s resistance, so players will have to take shelter in a covered area until it subsides.
The mission’s grand objective will require the player to find an escape elevator and stay there until the elevator moves to return safely. If the player’s mech gets destroyed, they will lose all the items they gathered during the session.
Synduality: Echo of Ada is under development for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam. The game used to have a 2023 release window, but Bandai Namco delayed it indefinitely due to the need for more development time.
