New Game Reveal — Survival Sandbox ‘Nighthold’
Greetings Hunters!
We’re thrilled to introduce a new game we've been working on — Nighthold.
Nighthold
is a co-op sandbox RPG with survival elements, where you’ll need to build shelters, known as 'Nightholds,' interact with survivors, and fight off raiders and the Rot to survive another night.
It all starts with a corporate starship crash, leaving the crew stranded on a harsh alien planet. Each night, the Rot rises from the ground — a mysterious phenomenon that destroys everything it can reach. To survive, the locals build Nightholds, or elevated shelters.
Your ultimate goal is to find a functioning escape pod to send a distress signal, but that’s much easier said than done: in addition to the relentless Rot, you’ll face rival human camps and uncover ancient technologies left behind by a lost civilization. But first of all, you must survive.
Open World, Endless Possibilities
The open, fully destructible world of Nighthold reacts to your every action, ensuring that everything you do leaves an impact. The game features realistic weather and fire systems: you can set a building ablaze and watch it burn to the ground. Craft, cook, fish, and interact with NPCs who live their own lives, build their own camps, and respond to your decisions. Form alliances, complete quests, or annihilate anyone who stands in your way. The world is alive, and your fate depends on how you engage with it.
Build by Day, Survive by Night
The day is your time to prepare: gather resources, craft tools and weapons, and fortify your Nighthold. But when night falls, the Rot emerges, infecting enemies, buildings, and even people around you. Defend against rotten enemies and control this mighty infection to turn the tide in your favour — or succumb to it yourself
Together or Alone
Survive solo or team up with friends in seamless cross-platform co-op play. Work together to build, explore, and conquer the night — or face the challenges of this unforgiving world on your terms.
