Aaero’s Gameplay & Soundtrack expand on Rez’s Foundation

If Rez Infinite or Thumper left you looking to scratch a newfound action/rhythm itch then take a look at Aaero from Mad Fellows ^[1]. Coming in February to Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC, the game melds its gorgeous low-poly art style with a thumping electronic soundtrack from Noisia, Flux Pavilion, Katy B, The Prototypes, Neosignal and more.

“We have been buzzing with excitement since we created the very first prototype of Aaero. Combining our favourite elements of rail-shooters and music gameplay has created something truly unique that we’re very proud of,” states Paul Norris, founder and Creative Director at Mad Fellows. “Aaero is based on a deep, fundamental synergy between music, gameplay and visuals. We’ve strived to create a unique and intuitive experience that exhilarates with bold visuals and an incredible soundtrack.”

Along with the Rez-inspired on-rails shooting Aaero adds segments of line-tracing, melody-matching action. It looks to make for a nice change of pace from the typical nonstop, lock-on firing mechanics. Check it out in action in the video ^[2] below and look for more folks to start talking about Aaero after its appearance next week at the PlayStation Experience ^[3] in California.
