Bring music to an alien world when cozy post-apocalyptic rhythm game Melobot - A Last Song blasts off September 16th

Re-awaken a silent planet's soul when this sci-fi musical adventure launches for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam!

Paris, France - 19th August, 2024 - Microids, publisher of acclaimed graphic adventure series Syberia and groundbreaking investigative narrative game Blacksad: Under the Skin, is today excited to announce its partnership with indie team Anomalie Studio to publish their first game, Melobot - A Last Song, launching for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam on September 16th.

In this genre-busting rhythm/action-adventure, you are Melobot, a musical robot on a mission to heal a post-apocalyptic world. Master a diverse mix of instruments, discover alien flora and fauna, and reawaken a silent planet's soul, all while fending off mysterious mechanical beings. But you're only a little fella, and you certainly weren't programmed for fisticuffs…

Instead, listen to the Meloplants, the vegetation of this world, and learn their quirky music; play back what you hear using intuitive controls created for both controllers and keyboards, and save them from the mysterious disease poisoning their planet. Take flight on the Melobase and explore visually stunning sci-fi environments, each with their own unique style and challenges - and prepare for combat as powerful Guardians test your skills in musical duels!

Designed for both rhythm game veterans and newcomers alike, Melobot - A Last Song is a toe-tapping musical adventure that blends the best of the rhythm genre with emotional storytelling and artistry inspired by Pixar and Studio Ghibli. So listen up - whether you're a musical maestro or a Mozart in the making, it's time to feel the beat and save the universe!

Melobot - A Last Song will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam on September 16th 2024 for €/$24.99. For more info, check out the Steam page.
