About Nightingale

Nightingale poster

Nightingale is a PvE open-world survival crafting game you can play solo or cooperatively with friends, built around venturing through mystical portals into a variety of amazing and fantastical realms. You build, craft, fight, and explore after being stranded beyond our world, cut off by the collapse of the arcane portal network, a catastrophe that leaves you fighting to survive in a labyrinth of beautiful and dangerous Fae realms.

Your goal is to become a skilled Realmwalker and navigate the web of transdimensional portals, the only path to reaching the magical city of Nightingale, humanity's last known bastion. Along the way you make your way through Faewild forests, harrowing swamps, and shimmering deserts, unlocking portals that lead ever deeper into the lands of Fae while cooking meals, building shelter, and finding the resolve to persevere.

Crafting runs throughout the experience as you fashion tools to harvest trees, ore, and plants, discover new schematics, and enhance gear with magical properties using specialized ingredients and arcane technologies. You can also design and construct an impressive estate from many styles and tilesets, upgrade and customize your structures, form communities, and even recruit NPC workers. On PC this action-adventure RPG offers a survival experience steeped in Fae mystery.
