Aeternum Game Studios and PlayStation revealed today new information on the upcoming release of Aeterna Noctis, one of the most anticipated Metroidvanias of this year. This epic adventure will be available digitally on December 15th on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, Steam, and Epic Games for $29.99/€29,99. To sweeten the deal until the release date, the development team shared a new short glimpse into the world of Aeterna Noctis.
In this trailer, players will discover two areas of the map never seen before in previous trailers: the Infinite Sea, where the beautiful Temple of the Oracle is located, and an Underground Fortress led by a society of conscious machines. Also, one more surprise awaits at the end of the video: the King will face a new fearsome creature that threatens to stop him from conquering the throne of Aeterna, and judging by its height… it won’t be easy to defeat!
The trailer also contains lots of nerve-wracking action scenes that show the potential of Aeterna Noctis’ combat features. As the King goes further in his path to the throne of Aeterna, he will learn to dispatch his enemies in more brutal ways. As a novelty, it shows the strength of the axe’s hard-hitting attacks as well as a perfectly executed freefall attack with the King’s spear.
