Overview
- The developer and publisher 505 Games announced on Tuesday, June 30, 2026, that Nivalis Nights will arrive on PC via Steam on September 29, 2026 with an Epic Games Store release to follow at an unspecified later date.
- The project has been renamed from Nivalis to Nivalis Nights and is billed as a cyberpunk slice-of-life life-simulation focused on running food and nightlife businesses, sourcing ingredients by farming or fishing, decorating homes, and social interactions.
- ION LANDS said it paused public marketing last October while quietly resolving a legal matter with a third party and that those obstacles have now been settled, enabling the studio to lock a date and resume promotion.
- The announcement was accompanied by an official trailer showing gameplay elements such as fishing, chatting, home customization, and street exploration, and the game is available to wishlist on Steam ahead of launch.
- The September 29 date places Nivalis Nights in a crowded fall release window, which could affect visibility for the indie studio best known for Cloudpunk and may shape 505 Games’ promotional strategy before any console plans are announced.
