Oh, these crazy trademarks and all the speculation they cause! This time around, it’s a trademark from Sony from the title “Echoshift“. Of course, it seems likely that this may be a new entry in the Echochrome universe. We already know Echochrono is coming later this year, so I wonder what this might be? Perhaps it’s just a new name for the US release … or a new game altogether?
I love Echochrome, but it makes me feel dumb as a brick if I don’t play it when I’m feeling my sharpest. Still, I’m glad to see the series doing well and progressing, and I really like their take on the puzzle genre. Did you like Echochrome enough to want more of it?
