Inflexion Games has announced that its highly anticipated “gaslamp fantasy” game, Nightingale, will be launching in early access on February 22nd. This exciting news was revealed during the Gamescom Opening Night Live event, where a new trailer showcasing Nightingale's Sun Giant, an apex creature found in the Faewilds, was also premiered.
Although the early access date is slightly later than initially anticipated, Inflexion Games emphasized their commitment to delivering a high-quality gaming experience and ensuring player satisfaction. Aaryn Flynn, the CEO of Inflexion Games and former Bioware boss, expressed the studio's dedication to meeting the expectations of their community, who have played a vital role in the game's development thus far.
Nightingale was initially scheduled for an early access release in 2022 but was subsequently pushed back to the first half of 2023. The release date was then further delayed to the autumn following feedback from playtests. This additional time will enable the developer to make necessary improvements including crafting bench animations, tuning and progression adjustments, and enhancing the mystical and immersive feel of the game's realms.
For more in-depth information on Nightingale, readers can refer to our hands-off preview of the game from last year. Inflexion Games expressed their gratitude for the invaluable feedback received from players, which has played a significant role in shaping the development process. The studio strives to create a beloved gaming experience that players can explore and enjoy with their friends for years to come.
