Hyperstrange announces
LOUD, an action game coming to Switch on July
15th and to
Steam
and consoles at some point thereafter. This is a music game involving a voyage
of self-discovery as well as rhythm, and, of course, volume. The
Announcement Trailer
reveals some gameplay, and the announcement fills in some details:
LOUD is
the story of Astrid, a young teenage girl with big dreams of becoming a talented
musician to avoid a potentially mundane adult life. So she dives head first into
the world of guitar and pop-punk.
14 custom-written songs make up the 14 chapters of Astrid's story as she goes
from playing air guitar in her basement to hopefully signing her first deal with
a talent scout. Master songs and improve your timing to unlock additional
cosmetic upgrades such as outfits, guitars, and
locations.
