Nocturnal 2 announced for PC and Switch release in 2025

Sunnyside Games today announced Nocturnal 2, a sequel to its side-scrolling action-platformer Nocturnal. The sequel expands the original title into more of a Metroidvania-style world, according to the developers, with the same juggle-based action gameplay. The game is scheduled to launch on PC and Nintendo Switch sometime in 2025.

According to Sunnyside, Nocturnal 2 features hand-drawn graphics and fire-based sword gameplay. Players must use fire to drive back the darkness-based creatures and keep the flame from dying by refreshing by visiting fire sources.
