Nightingale is debuting on early access for the PC.

Inflexion Games launches Nightingale on early access

Inflexion Games has launched its Nightingale survival crafting game on early access on the PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.

The debut title from Inflexion Games casts players in the role of an intrepid Realmwalker, venturing through arcane portals to forge their own story of survival and discovery across a procedurally-generated Victorian gaslamp fantasy universe.

Combining deep survival-crafting gameplay with intricate world-building and cool visuals, Nightingale aims to push the boundaries of survival-crafting gameplay with quests, an evolving narrative and an emphasis on player autonomy. 

The team released a new title dubbed “This is Nightingale” to show off the player-versus-environment survival crafting game.

The trailer showcases character customization, building and crafting, weapons and combat, exploration using realm cards, apex creatures, dungeons and multiplayer features. The latter includes The Watch, a social hub where Realmwalkers can meet, plan adventures, pick up quests or jump into challenging dungeons together.

Inflexion Games has also confirmed a Twitch Drops campaign will be available at launch, from February 20 to 27. Unlock an exclusive, unique and Victorian-stylish teckel dog pet that will join the players during their adventures in the Fae Realms by watching any participating channel on Twitch.

Nightingale challenges players to discover, explore and survive the mysterious Faewilds. Set in a Victorian gaslamp fantasy world, the game can be played solo or teamed up with up to five friends. Players traverse across the realms and open portals to new destinations by crafting realm cards, while building and customizing estates, and fighting to survive.
