Dubstep superstar Skrillex has released a video game – Skrillex Quest – and boy is it weird.<\/p>\n

The game plays out as one part homage to Zelda, and other part a bizarre visualisation of Skrillex\u2019s music.<\/p>\n

In the game, you play as an adventurer who has to deal death to weird digital blocks and pixels which have appeared from dust being blown from old 8-bit cartridges. Or something.<\/p>\n

You hack and slash your way through the game while listening to the sounds and elegant compositions of Skrillex\u2019s dubstep anthology.<\/p>\n

Skrillex is no stranger to video games, having lent his musical talents to EA\u2019s FPS reboot of Syndicate.<\/p>\n

If you want to check out the game, head over to the official Skrillex Quest website<\/a>, and pump up the volume and wait for the drop.<\/p>\n
