Coming to Steam and Nintendo Switch Later This Year
Lausanne, Switzerland — May 30, 2025 – Indie game developer Sunnyside Games is happy to reveal the first gameplay trailer for their upcoming Metroidvania, Nocturnal 2.
The game is set to launch later this year on Nintendo Switch and Steam, offering non-linear exploration through a city plunged into deep slumber. The main objective: awaken the city from its Sleep.
To break the puzzle of the city of Ytash, players must recover the scattered verses of a forgotten poem and carry the flames across the entire city—relighting everything in their path, from dormant engines to ancient shrines, and burning through obstacles and foes.
Built around fast-paced aerial combat and juggling, the game challenges players to master a burn-out system to progress and defeat the fierce enemies lurking throughout the ruins of this ancient place.
Key Features:
Carry your flames carefully across the island, steering clear of anything that might extinguish them.
Wield your blade to ignite ancient mechanisms and torches, gradually awakening the island god, Ytash.
Collect fragments of a forgotten poem to piece together the tragic story of a long-lost, self-consuming city.
Explore a compact, focused island adventure built around a singular core mechanic—with plenty of secrets waiting to be discovered.
