Q-Games To Publish Beyond The Dark: Nightwatch For Switch 2 On October 22
Q-Games announced on October 16 that it will publish Beyond the Dark: Nightwatch in Japan and other Asian regions for Nintendo Switch 2. The game releases on October 22 at 2,480 yen including tax, with the Nintendo Store page going live the same day. Atlantis Studio, an indie team based in Avignon, France, developed the title. It is a two-player-only asymmetric co-op horror game. One player is the Explorer, moving through a claustrophobic mansion in first person, searching for clues and solving puzzles. The other is the Watcher, staying on the surveillance cameras and using tools and documents to guide the partner. Neither player holds all the information, and both must talk constantly to escape the entity called the Grome, which is drawn to loud noise. Multiplayer support covers local play, local communication, online play, and GameShare, which lets a second console, either a Switch 2 or a Switch, join with one copy.
