AudioClash: Battle of the Bands is an auto-battler of a different kind. Developed by The Living Tombstone, this free-to-play game lets players create their own band and battle to the top of the charts. Expect it to release into Steam Early Access in Q3 2021. Check out the trailer below.
The Living Tombstone is an electric rock band with over 2.6 billion streams and AudioClash: Battle of the Bands is its unique creation. Players will be able to select from a roster of band managers, create a band, and utilize elements from rock, metal, punk, EDM and more to build a song deck which is used against opposing bands.
AudioClash: Battle of the Bands utilizes a between-round card ability feature that will affect the performance of your next piece. These work together to create various tactics, which are further boosted by stage props and band member positioning. The press release gives a little bit more insight into the types of abilities your band members can use:
Band battle over several rounds, each affected by the ability cards played in between. Boost your Vocalist’s health restoration so the lead Guitarist can dole out attack power buffs. Set up the Bassist to pull off a tide-turning Ultimate Attack and transform your drummer into a support tank with shields to spare. After just a few critical moments of decision-making, the round begins and each band steps onto the stage to perform, taking and dealing damage as their abilities dictate.
AudioClash: Battle of the Bands is scheduled to hit Steam Early Access in the latter half of 2021. Players can sign up to the closed beta over on the AudioClash website. Be sure to keep it locked to Shacknews for the latest on AudioClash: Battle of the Bands as well as everything else coming at you this E3 2021.
