Today’s news was accompanied by a new trailer showcasing the stages you’ll own, the tyranny you’ll fight against and the citizens of Saturn you will save as you begin your rhythm-based journey to bring back the music in September.
In the dystopian metropolis of Saturn, a tyrannical regime has silenced all sound – making music is against the law. B0B0, a bold singer and songwriter must take the fate of Saturn into her hands to dismantle the corrupt government through tactical battles, navigating real-time executions of moves in a rhythm game style to triumph over adversaries, uncovering the mysteries of the city and its overlords and headline concerts with her band’s pulse-pounding electronic jams.
Inspired by classics like the Mario & Luigi RPG series and Chrono Trigger, Keylocker effortlessly combines the charm of physical comedy with rich storytelling and challenging strategic mechanics. This genre-defying mix of JRPG, narrative and rhythm elements promises an unforgettable experience.
