AVAILABLE ON ALL MAIN PLATFORMS
AN UNIQUE
METROIDVANIA
Aeterna Noctis feels like a traditional 2D Metroidvania mixed with unique gameplay mechanics never seen before. Taking the role of the 'King of Darkness' you must regain your power exploring the vast lands of the world of 'Aeterna' across 16 different and connected areas in a pure Metroidvania style. Frame by frame animation using hand-drawn style confers a singular personality to the title, making different every single level and character and also belonging to the Aeterna Noctis universe.
THE CURSE
OF CHAOS
Chaos created space-time and populated the vast void with innumerable beings. Upon contemplating his creation he named it… Aeterna. Two enemy main factions were born: Light and Darkness. Outraged, Chaos cursed both leaders with immortality, and the first of the cycles began. The Queen of Light and the King of Darkness would fight to the death for the throne of Aeterna and to restore equilibrium until the end of all existence.
TWO GAME MODES
Aeterna Mode
(A pure Metroidvania experience)
In essence, the game has been completely redesigned to offer you as a player a 100% Metroidvania experience where action and exploration are the protagonists. If it's one of your favorite genres, don't miss the opportunity to get lost in a huge open world with 16 unique areas and hundreds of enemies with unique mechanics. The challenge lies in recovering your power and facing fearsome final bosses that will demand the most of you.
Noctis Mode
(Platforms and extreme challenges)
We could say that for the first time two genres such as Metroidvania and platform games have been mixed. Playing on this mode, you will not only have to explore and recover your powers, but you will also face constant puzzles, platform sections and challenges only recommended for the most demanding players. If you think this is not for you, we do not recommend playing on Noctis Mode since frustration can ruin the experience. This mode includes all the achievements, so it is also ideal for completionist players or for those who, after beating Aeterna mode, want to enjoy the title again with more difficulty.
GAME FEATURES
Hand drawn graphic
Each asset, movement, NPC, animation and environmental detail in Aeterna Noctis have been hand-drawn using traditional 2D illustration techniques by the art team, giving rise to a vibrant and beautifully assembled world. Everything you see in the game has countless hours of hard drawing work. The visuals speak for themselves, Aeterna Noctis has its own personality!
16 unique areas
The world of Aeterna Noctis is large, featuring many different environments across the map. Each of the 16 play areas has a unique atmosphere and design, making them all feel different. The creatures that you will find in each one are also unique, and all have a design according to the biome they inhabit. Despite their differences, the 16 game zones feel like they belong to the same coherent and connected universe.
Saving and thrones
Aeterna Noctis has been designed to make the player feel confident with their progress. Throughout your adventure, you will find thrones and lampposts that will allow you to save your game. The thrones will also help you fast travel between them, allowing you to access different sections of the map quickly... Ideal for exploring every corner of the world!
Power tree
Any good Metroidvania needs a skill tree, and, of course, Aeterna Noctis features one too. The three different paths featured in the progress menu will allow you to improve your magical abilities, your dexterity with weapons and increase your maximum health, among other stats. Invest your skill points and customize the skills of your King of Darkness. Make him unstoppable!
Power gems
The chances to create a unique gaming experience go beyond the skill tree thanks to the power gems. Gems can be unlocked by completing quests, exploring the map, and finding secrets. These items have key improvements to your battle prowess and will allow you to create a unique character build. Combine them to enhance different aspects of your weapons and skills.
+100 enemies
The enemy roster in Aeterna Noctis is as large as the game map! Each area is populated with different kinds of creatures: slimes, ghosts, insects, human-like warriors, robots, wild animals, and unspeakable beings... There are more than 100 enemies in Aeterna Noctis bestiary, and each one requires a different strategy. Study their movements, learn their attack patterns and defeat them to gain money and experience.
+20 bosses
In addition to the regular enemies, you will have to face the colossal bosses that populate the world of Aeterna. Each one of these epic boss fights will put your reflexes and skills to the test. Some bosses are even optional, and defeating them will be an extra challenge, but also a greater reward and satisfaction. Could you beat them?
