Indie developer Bytten Studio and Raw Fury have released Cassette Beasts, the creature-collecting-and-fusing open-world RPG, on PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store. The game is also available on PC Game Pass. Discover over 100 awesome monsters to collect and transform into during exciting turn-based battles on an imaginative journey of exploration and friendship.
Cassette Beasts puts a unique spin on monster-collector RPG adventures – on the remote island of New Wirral, people can use cassette tapes to transform into strange creatures and battle! You’ll need to explore the island and record a menagerie of mighty monsters to your trusty cassette tapes to gain their abilities and find a way home. You can even combine two creatures together to make powerful new forms with shared elemental types, stats, and move sets using Cassette Beasts’ Fusion System.
