    Neon, Nights, New Beginnings — Nivalis Nights Is Out Now!

    The wait is over — the city is yours. Leading publisher 505 Games and independent developer ION LANDS have officially launched Nivalis Nights, the highly anticipated cyberpunk slice-of-life sim, available right now on PC via Steam.

    From the creators of Cloudpunk comes a return to the dazzling, rain-slicked metropolis of Nivalis — but this time, you aren’t just passing through. You’re putting down roots, building a life, and making this neon-drenched wonderland truly your home.

    Live, Work, Thrive — After Dark

    Nivalis Nights reimagines cyberpunk not as a battleground, but as a living, breathing world where your biggest challenges are keeping customers happy and finding time for yourself:

    • Run Your Empire — Start small with a noodle bar and expand into restaurants, nightclubs, and beyond. Manage staff, refine recipes, and watch your reputation soar
    • Make Connections — Befriend rivals, fall in love, and build bonds with the city’s vibrant residents. Every conversation shapes how Nivalis sees you
    • Make It Yours — Purchase and personalise your own apartment, decorate it from floor to ceiling, and create a sanctuary amid the glow
    • Unwind & Explore — Go fishing, sail the coastlines, or simply wander the districts from shoreline to skytop. There’s always something new to discover around the next corner
    • Your Days, Your Rules — No grand destiny to save the world — just your life, your choices, and the freedom to spend each night however you please

    A City Built on Wishlists

    Interest has been immense: Nivalis Nights surpassed one million Steam wishlists ahead of launch, turning years of eager anticipation into reality today.

    Available now for £21.99 / $24.99 / €24.99, with a limited-time 10% launch discount for early adopters.

    The lights are on, the doors are open — and Nivalis is waiting. Step into the night and build the life you’ve always wanted.

  • Nivalis Nights: Cyberpunk Life Sim Locks In September Release Date

    Nivalis Nights: Cyberpunk Life Sim Locks In September Release Date

    The neon-soaked streets of Nivalis are finally calling us back. Publisher 505 Games and independent developer ION LANDS (the brilliant minds behind Cloudpunk) have officially announced that their highly anticipated cyberpunk slice-of-life simulator, Nivalis Nights, will launch on Steam on September 29, 2026.

    If the name sounds slightly unfamiliar, that is because the game—previously known simply as Nivalis—has received a stylish title update alongside its brand-new release date trailer. For players looking to grab it elsewhere on PC, an Epic Games Store release is confirmed to follow at a later date.

    Check out the official breakdown of what to expect when you hit the rain-slicked pavement this fall.

    From Noodle Stands to Nightclubs

    In Nivalis Nights, you aren’t playing as a cybernetically enhanced mercenary out to save the world. Instead, you are just trying to make a living, find your footing, and thrive in a stunning, voxel-art metropolis that stretches from the ocean to the clouds.

    The game blends the cosy mechanics of management sims with a gritty, immersive cyberpunk atmosphere. You will start from incredibly humble beginnings and attempt to build a sprawling business empire.

    • Choose Your Hustle: Manage and grow unique businesses from the ground up, including noodle stands, hole-in-the-wall bars, ramen shops, and the city’s most exclusive nightclubs.
    • Supply Chain Management: Source your own ingredients directly from bustling waterfront marketplaces, or head down to the docks to grow and fish for your own stock.
    • A Living City: Navigate a realistic weather system and a world pushed to the brink by strict CorpSec crackdowns and a mysterious serial killer.

    Cosy Living Above the Clouds

    When you aren’t managing foot traffic or trying to legally (or illegally) sabotage your business rivals under the cover of a city-wide curfew, Nivalis Nights invites you to take things slow.

    Players can buy, customise, and decorate their dream apartments high above the smog. The game also promises a rich, character-driven narrative where you can explore hidden alleyways, chat with an eclectic cast of citizens, unlock deep stories, make lifelong friends, and potentially even find love.

    A Labour of Love Five Years in the Making

    The team at ION LANDS has been hard at work refining this ambitious simulation since its initial reveal back in 2021.

    “As an independent studio, developing this game meant overcoming hurdles we’ve never faced before, and we are incredibly grateful to our community for their patience over the last five years,” said Marko Dieckmann, Creative Director at ION LANDS. “Today, we are thrilled to finally lock in our official release date and cannot wait for players to dive in.”

    Nivalis Nights hits PC via Steam on September 29, 2026. Be sure to head over to the Steam page to add it to your wishlist today.
