Keylocker: Turn-Based Cyberpunk Action is an innovative rhythm JRPG set to launch on September 18, 2024, for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Developed by Moonana Games and published by Serenity Forge, the game transports players to a dystopian Saturn where a tyrannical regime outlaws music.

Players take on the role of B0B0, a rebellious singer-songwriter who defies the oppressive government through rhythm-based combat, turn-based mechanics, and real-time action. B0B0’s mission is to restore sound to Saturn, battling enemies with the power of music and uncovering the dark secrets behind the regime’s rule.

Drawing inspiration from iconic titles like the Mario & Luigi RPG series and Chrono Trigger, Keylocker blends physical comedy, rich narrative, and tactical depth into a unique gaming experience. The game features a vibrant cyberpunk world, a diverse cast of characters, and intense musical showdowns that challenge players’ timing and strategy.

The recently released trailer showcases the game’s dynamic stages, fierce battles, and the pulse-pounding electronic soundtrack that fuels B0B0’s quest. With its combination of narrative-driven exploration, rhythm-infused combat, and a powerful story of rebellion, Keylocker is poised to offer an unforgettable adventure when it hits the shelves this September.
