'Nightingale' Early Access Release Date Set For February 2024 - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Aug. 22, 2023 @ 12:00 p.m. PDT

Nightingale is a shared-world survival crafting game set within a rich Victorian gaslamp fantasy setting.

Nightingale is a first-person, PVE, open-world survival crafting game played solo or cooperatively with friends. Explore alone or band together with other survivors, obtaining valuable materials to construct settlements, and craft vital tools and weaponry as you fight against deadly monstrosities and the Fae, humanity’s magical rivals. 

Thrown into a labyrinth of fantastical and perilous worlds in the wake of a magical cataclysm, players must venture through mystical portals to explore increasingly dangerous realms, in search of the last haven of humanity, Nightingale. 

You are stranded beyond our world, cut off by the collapse of the arcane portal network. This catastrophe has left you fighting to survive in a labyrinth of beautiful and dangerous Fae realms.

Your goal: become a skilled Realmwalker, and navigate the web of transdimensional portals. Only then can you discover your way to the magical city of Nightingale, the last known bastion of humanity.


Inflexion Games announced Nightingale is set to release into Early Access on February 22nd, 2024, via Steam and the Epic Games Store at $29.99 USD.

The Edmonton-based studio debuted an all-new trailer for its shared world survival crafting game during Gamescom Opening Night Live, exploring the beauty - and danger - that players can discover across the mystical Fae Realms. The trailer provides a sneak peek at one of Nightingale’s most colossal denizens: the towering Sun Giant, one of the rare apex creatures found in the Faewilds.

It awaits to greet Realmwalkers with calm curiosity…or, perhaps, a blast of searing Fae energy…

"After years of dedicated work from the team, we are thrilled to announce that Nightingale will enter Early Access on February 22nd, 2024. That date is a few months later than we previously announced. But as a studio, we’re committed to quality, and we take player satisfaction very seriously. We want to ensure that the game delivers on the expectations of our community, who have played a vital role in the development to date. We strive to ensure that Nightingale not only fulfills our vision but also becomes a cherished place for our players to explore and discover with their friends for many years to come," says Aaryn Flynn, CEO of Inflexion Games.

Nightingale’s  Early Access will mark the beginning of a shared journey towards full release. Continuing to work directly with the community, Inflexion Games will regularly iterate and improve the game, adding new content along the way. Early Access gives players a chance to participate in development and it gives the team a unique opportunity to explore new ideas with a live community.
