SYNDUALITY Echo of Ada Overview
SYNDUALITY Echo of Ada is a third-person shooter published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. Officially revealed in mid-2022, the game is part of a larger multimedia project, including an anime series titled SYNDUALITY Noir. Development updates have showcased the gameplay’s PvPvE elements, customization features, and the synergy between players and their AI companions.
Set in a dystopian future, the game takes place in the year 2222, following the catastrophic events caused by a phenomenon known as The Tears of the New Moon. This mysterious rain brought devastation, drastically reducing humanity’s population and giving rise to xenomorphic creatures called Enders. To survive, the remnants of humanity retreated to an underground haven while Drifters ventured to the surface to scavenge resources.
The central gameplay revolves around the collection of AO Crystals, a rare and vital resource. Players assume the role of a Drifter, tasked with exploring the hazardous surface while piloting a mecha known as the CRADLECOFFIN. Accompanied by Magus, an AI partner, players face hostile creatures, toxic rain, and the competitive threat of other Drifters.

Players navigate the surface world in their CRADLECOFFIN, a versatile mecha capable of traversing the harsh terrain and engaging in combat against Enders.

A Good Shooter With Balancing Issues
Game8 rated SYNDUALITY Echo of Ada a 70/100, commending its customizable Magus and mechs, dynamic environments, and well-designed combat mechanics.

On Metacritic, it holds a score of 71/100, with critics praising its enchanting gameplay loop but noting it feels incomplete. Player reception on Steam is currently 6/10, with users acknowledging the game’s potential while criticizing issues like balancing problems.
