Squad-based strategy game There Came an Echo will launch on February 24 for PC via Steam, developer Iridium Studios has announced.

There Came An Echo is notable for its ability to be played all the way through using only voice commands. It is possible to use keyboard and mouse or a controller instead, however.

It was funded to the tune of US$115,000 via Kickstarter in March 2013, and contains voice work from Wil Wheaton.

"Corrin (played by Wil Wheaton) is a 31-year-old cryptographer and inventor of a very particular encryption algorithm... one that currently holds safe a shocking secret," the game's Kickstarter reads.

"His comfortable existence is interrupted by the enigmatic Val, who informs him that his life is in very imminent danger. His desperate attempts to uncover the truth are aided by a mercenary, Miranda; a vengeful young woman, Grace; and a mysterious British gentleman named Syll."

The game is also coming to Xbox One and PlayStation 4 at a later date.
