Back in 2021, developers Beethoven and Dinosaur teamed up with Annapurna Interactive to bring us The Artful Escape, a musical odyssey based around journeying through a psychedelic ’70s rock universe as a budding musician crafts his persona. And now, as seen in the recent Xbox Games Showcase, the same developer and publisher are teaming up again to bring us Mixtape, another odyssey based around music, but with several different twists compared to its predecessor. For one, the setting is jumping ahead to around the late ’80s/early ’90s, as opposed to the ’70s. And in contrast to the surreal alien landscapes of before, here the game is set in Northern California, focusing on a smaller tale between a group of teenage friends. That said, there’s still a touch of fantasy here, as seen through the titular mixtape, and in the trailer at the link here.
