2025 Wrap Up

As 2025 comes to a close, we are feeling incredibly grateful for the support, excitement, and love our community has shared with us this year. It has been a milestone year for Cococucumber, and we could not have done it without you!

In November, we finally lifted the curtain on Echo Generation 2, revealing the sequel during the Xbox Partner Preview showcase. The response has been amazing, and we have loved seeing the game featured in places like TurnBasedLovers’ Most Anticipated Turn-Based RPGs of 2026. We were also fortunate to have the chance to talk more about the sequel’s inspirations and direction in interviews with IGN and Windows Central.

Just a week before the sequel reveal, we brought Echo Generation: Midnight Edition to Xbox, giving players a new way to experience the world ahead of what comes next. Earlier in the year, Ravenlok: Legendary Edition arrived on Steam in April, welcoming a whole new wave of players into its dark fairytale universe.

As we head into the holidays, we would love your support. Please wishlist Echo Generation 2, and if you have not yet, pick up all of our games during the Steam Winter Sale.

Thank you for being part of our journey! We’re looking ahead with so much excitement as 2026 is the launch year for Echo Generation 2, and we cannot wait to share more with you very soon.
