The new product is based on the novels “The Lord of the Ice Garden” by the Polish writer Yaroslav Grzhendovich. In the story, players play the role of the elite mercenary Yuko Drakkainen, who is on his way to the unknown planet Midgaard in search of a missing team of scientists.
The local world is surrounded by radiation fields that harm all high-tech devices. It is also very similar to Scandinavia from the Middle Ages, including the local inhabitants who resemble Vikings.
A large number of secrets await gamers on the planet; it can change literally everyone and everything, from objects to people.
The Night Wanderer is being developed by Warsaw-based studio Mighty Koi. The authors say that in terms of gameplay, their project combines elements of RPG and soulsliking, while promising some “unique approaches to proven mechanics.” In particular, here the locations are built according to the Metroidvania principle. And the main character will have biological AI at his disposal, which makes him stronger, tougher and more agile.
The title is planned to be released on PC PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series, but the timing is not indicated even approximately.
