Isometric action-RPG Kingdom of Night coming to Switch
Just a few days ago, a Kickstarter opened for Kingdom of Night. The isometric, story-driven, action-RPG was looking for $10,000 to become a reality. That goal has already been met and there’s still close to a month remaining in the campaign. Successful funding means we’ll be seeing it on Switch.
Black Seven Studios is developing Kingdom of Knight. Dangen Entertainment is handling publishing, including localization.
Here’s some additional information about the project plus a trailer:
Kingdom of Night is an 80’s themed isometric, story-driven, action-RPG with an expansive, interconnected map and open-ended quest system.
It is a game about coming of age, cosmic horror, and true love. The player takes control of John, as his adventure leads him through an hour by hour experience of what may be everyone’s last night on Earth. He will encounter unearthly evils, Demon lords, afflicted townsfolk, high school bullies, and a torrent of engaging, serial-like side stories all nested in a larger than life fantasy that brings the ultimate evil to a neighborhood near you. Choose your class, battle nightmarish creatures, customize your abilities, collect unique items and equipment in order to infiltrate the massive lairs of the Demon Lords and take on apocalyptic boss battles at their very centers.
