DaRmaZat During today’s AG French Direct presentation, indie developer and publisher Sol Brothers officially announced that Maseylia: Echoes of the Past will launch on Steam on June 19, 2026. Fully optimized for Steam Deck and Linux, the upcoming release already has a playable demo available on Steam that has earned a highly positive reception from early players.
Maseylia: Echoes of the Past is a true 3D non-linear Metroidvania that draws heavy inspiration from classics like Metroid Prime and Hollow Knight, modern platformers like Pseudoregalia, and the surreal sci-fi comic art of Moebius.
In Maseylia, you are tasked with exploring a vertically rich, interconnected world filled with ancient ruins, alien forests, and techno-organic structures. Instead of just acting as keys to unlock doors, progression abilities – such as a double jump, a 360-degree air dash, and a grapple hook – fundamentally reshape how you traverse the environment.
This movement-focused design encourages sequence breaking, opens hidden paths, and rewards curiosity. The agility carries directly over into the combat mechanics, forcing you to master fluid mobility during encounters with hostile creatures and towering guardians while uncovering the tragic lore behind the Heart of Maseylia.
