Over the Moon, Coatsink and Thunderful are extremely excited to announce that you’ll be able to take a trip to the pixelated world of video games in The Last Hero of Nostalgaia from October 19, 2022!
With full online co-op from beginning to end, five distinct classes to choose from, as well as a whole host of strange realms to explore with Easter Eggs and well-kept secrets to uncover, you may never want to leave.
The Last Hero of Nostalgaia has been a labor of love for Over the Moon and this is their tribute to the Dark Souls series, with a heavy focus on well-polished mechanics, fully developed characters, and an over-arching humorous narrative filled with wicked twists and turns.
In Nostalgaia, everything has collapsed backward into a mysterious pixelation with every particle of fidelity bleeding away. As the lighting dims and the frames diminish, one final hope emerges as the world itself seems on the very brink of extinction.
As the most hideous pixelated hero to ever spawn in Nostalgaia, you must fight through an army of mindless inhabitants, all while being jeered by a cynical narrator who despises your very existence.
With a plethora of reference filled suits of armor and familiar weapons, each with their own unique lore and attributes you must ‘remember’ in order to unlock their true potential, you are all that stands in the way of the land of Nostalgaia disintegrating into nothingness.
The best part is you don’t need to wait until October 19 to visit. We’re also very excited to announce that we’ve just released a demo for The Last Hero of Nostalgaia which you can download for free on Steam right now! This explores the opening portion of the game and lets you get a feel for this rich and complex world.
You can even come visit the Thunderful booth at EGX in the ExCel Center, London this weekend and play it with us!
And don’t worry, we didn’t forget our friends on Xbox. If you’re looking to play there, pre-orders will open from October 3!
Let us know if you’re up to the challenge and how you get on! If you dare…
