We are happy to announce that Night is Coming, as well as its trial version Night is Coming โ Wrath of the Woods are participating in Steam's RTS Fest!
Introducing Night is Coming โ Wrath of the Woods โ a long and exciting trial version that guarantees several hours of gameplay. And most importantly โ it will be completely free and available to everyone!
The release of Night is Coming โ Wrath of the Woods is just around the corner, so add the game to your wishlist now to make sure you don't miss its launch!
Night is Coming is a survival strategy game set in a fantasy world inspired by Slavic mythology and the nature of Eastern Europe.
The Darkness is relentlessly devouring the lands, forcing survivors to hide in the woods, where each new day is a battle against death. You are to lead a group of those humbled by impending dread: build and develop your settlement, gather resources, and protect your people from monsters that lurk in the dark. Take care of the settlers, make them learn crafts and military skills so their next sunset is not their last. Over time, you will have to leave the lands you developed and look for the new ones... Who knows, maybe there you will find out how to repel the inevitable danger and save the world.
Will you be able to do all that is needed before the sunset?
The end of the year is just around the corner: the holidays are coming, which means a decorated Christmas tree, lots of gifts, and a long weekend! The Wild Forest Studio team and 101XP wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! May 2025 bring you lots of good news and long-awaited releases!
Meanwhile, the winter sale has begun on Steam, and we have a great offer for you โ until January 2, grab our titles at a discount for a great opportunity to spend the holidays playing interesting and exciting games!
Today, we want to share a significant event in our project's life. We are happy to announce that Wild Forest Studio has partnered up with the international video game publisher 101XP, and that 101XP will be publishing our game!
What does this mean for Night is Coming? First of all, a publisher supports a studio both financially and in terms of internal resources, which will allow us to significantly advance the project's development, implement more features, and deliver a higher quality product. We will receive help with certain tasks and can safely leave all launch-related concerns to 101XP, focusing exclusively on game development. In addition, a publisher offers invaluable industry and marketing experience. Finally, this offers us additional opportunities to promote and increase our upcoming title's outreach, since we want as many new people as possible to learn about Night is Coming.
In other words, all this marks the beginning of a new and important stage in the game's development. We are confident that together we can achieve great heights and will jointly strive to make this title as engaging and high-quality as it can be for you, our players!
Right now, project development is in full swing. We went dark for a while, but not because we abandoned the game. Quite the opposite - all this time we were hard at work! This period of "radio silence" allowed us to focus and make significant progress: we improved many mechanics, added new gameplay features, and made Night is Coming even deeper and more atmospheric, so that you can get fully immersed in the mysterious and dangerous world of Slavic mythology.
Expect more major news and events to come. As a little spoiler, you will be able to try the game yourself very soon ;)
Dive into a harsh world inspired by Slavic mythology and Eastern European nature with Night is Coming! Build and develop a settlement, take care of its inhabitants, and confront the dangers that intensify with every nightfall. A potent mix of strategy, survival, and mystical elements creates a unique gaming experience!
