Skrillex has finally released a solo album after a decade, and fans are going crazy. However, we might have something that can help you take a stroll back to memory lane. 

Sonny John Moore, better known as Skrillex, stunned the world in the final days of 2022 after he announced a fresh album. Fans were tired of requesting him one as he hadn’t dropped a single in the past nine years. He did release music that featured other artists, but fans were in awe of a solo gem. And after almost a decade, he finally decided to surprise them all with Rumble.

However, in the past few years, Skrillex not only enthralled fans with his music but also published a game under his name. Quite fascinating, right? Well, it’s true. He was one of the household names to drop the video game alongside fan favorites like Chemical Brothers and Atreyu. 

Besides his current album launch, here’s a time when Skrillex stunned fans with the perfect video game 

Skrillex’s fanbase is unparalleled. After all, he’s one of the key participants in the dubstep scene, let alone the genre. To date, thousands of fans claim to get into this music by listening to his tracks and understanding how a few beats could make your day.

But there was a time when the LA artist shook the world with his own video game. He belonged to the music industry, so none of his fans were expecting a walk into gaming. But, he stunned them all in November 2012, launching Skrillex Quest. 

Skrillex Quest was a Zelda-like game that challenged fans to save the world from the spreading glitch. It worked in an NES cartridge and featured a single-player format for users. ‘The game also featured a bunch of collectibles, easter eggs, with each zone having a time limit pressuring you to find them all before being forced to move on.’
