Community Game Night will be this Friday, 6/12 at 9:00 PM ET

Come join the Discord here: https://discord.gg/loricgames

Our Discord is the best place to connect directly with the dev team and fellow players. It’s where you can share feedback, ask questions, and get help quickly from the community and team. We actively monitor Discord and often respond to questions or troubleshoot issues much faster there than through other channels. More than that, the Discord is where the community comes together. We’re committed to building the game alongside our players, hosting regular community nights, gathering feedback, and sharing sneak peeks at upcoming features before they’re revealed publicly. If you want an early look at what’s coming next, this is the place to be.

In addition to the Community Game Night, we’ll be hosting a small contest!

Theme: Start a new game and capture your first chaotic moment or highlight a feature you like.

Want to join? Post a screenshot to any of the following spaces:

  • Echoes of Elysium Steam Community page (Screenshots section)

  • Your favorite social media platform, just make sure to tag us!

Please be sure to mention the contest when posting.

The winner will receive a Steam key and Loric Games stickers!

Submissions will close Tuesday, June 23rd, 2026

Community feedback continues to play a huge role in the development of Echoes of Elysium.

Our feedback boards are open to anyone who wants to submit suggestions, vote on ideas they’d like to see added to the game, and report bugs directly to the dev team. Whether it’s a quality-of-life improvement, a new gameplay mechanic, or an issue you’ve encountered during your adventure, your feedback helps us prioritize what matters most to the community.

We’ve already implemented numerous player-requested improvements throughout development, and we encourage everyone to take part in helping shape the future of Elysium. We can’t build this game without our players, and every piece of feedback helps us create a better experience for everyone.

✨ Feature Request: https://feedback.echoes.games/

✨ Bug Report: https://bugs.echoes.games/

As always, thank you for your continued support and for being part of the Echoes of Elysium community. We're excited for what's ahead and can't wait to share more of what we've been building and what’s still to come in the months ahead. This game wouldn’t be where it is without the community’s support.

We hope to see you at Community Game Night! Have a great week, Elysians!

-Team Loric🧡
