Level Infinite announced the major update “Realms Rebuilt” for “Nightingale” (hereinafter referred to as “Nightingale”) on September 12th in the program “Into the Infinite: A Level Infinite Showcase 2024” which was distributed on August 22, 2024. It was announced that it would be carried out on the following day. Nightingale will enter early access in February 2024, and many players are already enjoying it. In this update, the ``boundary'' system, which is the core of the game, will be significantly strengthened and a new stage for adventure will be prepared.In this article, we will introduce the next update that was explained by Mr. Aaryn Flynn, CEO of Inflexion Games, the developer of this game, at the Level Infinite booth at the game show "gamescom 2024" currently being held in Germany. .


Nightingale is an open world survival game for PC developed by Inflexion Games. In a world view reminiscent of the Victorian era of the 19th century, players play the role of ``boundary travelers'' and adventure through various different worlds called ``boundaries.''


In the world of this work, humans have gained magical power through interaction with a race from another world called "Fae." However, due to the appearance of the mist ``White Depth'' that covers the world, humanity is forced to evacuate to the magical city ``Nightingale.'' The player's objective is to rebuild the collapsed portal network and find a way to Nightingale.

A feature of the gameplay is that you can freely create adventure stages by combining "boundary cards". Players create their own realms by combining ``biome cards,'' ``major cards,'' and ``minor cards.'' This allows you to enjoy adventures with endless possibilities. There are also plenty of survival elements. Players create tools using the resources they collect, build bases, and explore the realm while fighting enemies. It also supports multiplayer for up to 6 people, allowing you to enjoy the adventure in cooperation with your friends. The "Realms Rebuilt" update will enhance various elements of the game. Let's take a look at the main changes. New campaign The highlight of the "Realms Rebuilt" update is the newly added campaign. This is described as an“all-new handcrafted campaign”, and refers to the stories and missions designed and crafted down to the last detail by the developers. The player restarts the portal network called "Crossways" and embarks on an adventure to open a path to humanity. What is noteworthy is that the new campaign perfectly integrates with Nightingale's signature ``boundary'' system. Players advance through a fixed story while freely exploring procedurally generated areas. There will also be a mechanism that allows you to return to the main story at any time. This allows for both a highly flexible adventure and a carefully designed story experience. Improved progression system New dungeons and boss battles . Not only are they strong, but each requires a special strategy. New weapons and spells added . Mr. Flynn explained that this may create a new strategic aspect to combat. Crafting system enhancements will allow players to maximize the abilities of their equipment. Building system enhancements The game progression system will be greatly improved. This will make the player's growth more clear and allow them to progress toward their goals more efficiently. The grind (repetitive monotonous work) is also said to be reduced.According to Flynn, this improvement was made based on feedback from players. In response to the voices of novice players who say ``I don't know what to do,'' a more intuitive goal setting and reward system will be implemented.Along with the addition of new immersive dungeons, new boss battles will also be implemented. These contents will be a great opportunity to test the player's combat skills.There will be 5 new bosses with unique designs, including a ``bear with tentacles'' and a ``giant scarab''The combat system will also be strengthened. New weapons and spells are added, expanding the player's combat options. Of particular note is the newly implementedbow and arrowEquipment customization becomes deeper. The newly implemented``Parametric Crafting System''With this system, the performance of equipment can be changed in detail depending on the combination of materials and processing methods, making it possible to create unique and powerful equipment.Building restrictions will be significantly relaxed, making it possible to construct larger bases. This change was one of the most requested by players. This is the result of responding to the call for ``more freedom and greater size.'' In addition, a new "Regency" style architecture set has been added, allowing you to create buildings more reminiscent of the Victorian era. The "Realms Rebuilt" update breathes new life into Nightingale. The introduction of a new campaign will allow for both free exploration and detailed storytelling, and improvements to the progression system and reduced grind will increase player immersion. The addition of new dungeons, bosses, and weapons expands the range of battles and enables more strategic adventures. And the enhancements to the crafting and building systems are likely to further bring out the creativity of creative players. With this update, Nightingale may be able to provide a deeper story experience while also satisfying players' desire for free exploration. It looks like we'll be able to enjoy a new type of adventure in which the story intended by the developer and the story spun by the players themselves are in perfect harmony.Expectations are high for Nightingale with the implementation of the "Realms Rebuilt" update on September 12th. This is a fairly large-scale update, and you can feel the enthusiasm of the development team. What kind of story will be woven on this new adventure stage?
