Circus Electrique (game)

## *Circus Electrique*

***Circus Electrique*** is a game developed by Zen Studios for PC and consoles. It will be released on September 6, 2022 for PC (on Steam and Epic), PS5/PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.

Named for the greatest show in Victorian steampunk London, Circus Electrique is part story-driven RPG, part tactics, part circus management, and completely enthralling – all with a steampunk twist.

When everyday Londoners mysteriously turn into vicious killers, only the circus’ lineup of Strongmen, Fire Blowers, Clowns and other performers possess the unique talents necessary to save the city. Through tactical turn-based battles, these unlikely heroes face Bobbies, British Sailors gone bad, aggressive Posh Girls, and other Victorian-era archetypes stand in their way – not to mention the occasional menacing Mime or Robobear. The game’s innovative Devotion morale system affects characters’ performance not only in battles, but also for actual circus shows, dutifully managed between heroic jaunts through six sprawling districts.

## Features

## Add-Ons

### Circus Electrique Soundtrack

*Zen Studios enlisted the talents of Hungarian maestro Arthur Valentin Grósz (Operencia: The Stolen Sun) to compose a soundtrack he himself describes as, "a bit hard to grasp. Like steampunk itself, while it can be defined, it derives from many different genres just as this soundtrack. It is based upon symphonic music from baroque to romanticism all the way through the modern movie soundtracks, which are heavily influenced by electronic music."*
