Switch 2 fans feeling left out over Moonhood and Fast Travel Games’ The Midnight Walk need not worry any longer. Announced during Nintendo’s Indie World showcase, the award-winning hauntingly dark handcrafted adventure title will launch March 26 on the Nintendo Switch 2. Players can wishlist the game now via the Nintendo eShop.
Previously released last year on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam, The Midnight Walk sees players become The Burnt One, an enigmatic figure exploring a world steeped in wonder and darkness. Accompanied by Potboy, a lost lantern creature, you must work together to outsmart fire-eating monsters, using Potboy’s flame to distract while you hide from and evade the many threats of The Dark Itself.
Everything you see in The Midnight Walk, from the drooling snarl of monsters to the bristling tree tops that line the journey was first sculpted in clay and then 3D scanned to a meticulous level of detail. The result is a uniquely layered fantasy world with an artistic imprint, all realized in breathtaking stop motion.
