Lone Echo is a 2017 virtual reality adventure game developed by Ready At Dawn, and published by Oculus Studios.[1] Set aboard a space station orbiting Saturn, it allows players to move in zero-gravity by grabbing and pushing off of the environment. In addition to the narrative single-player game, the title includes a team-based multiplayer sports mode called Echo Arena, which was also released as a stand-alone game.[2][3][4] A sequel, Lone Echo II, was announced in 2018 and released on October 12, 2021.[5][6]
