The Midnight Walk arrives on Nintendo Switch 2 on March 26th
From the creators of Lost in Random, The Midnight Walk will receive a Nintendo Switch 2 port on March 26th, published by Fast Travel Games.

The first-person clay-crafted adventure game by MoonHood invites players to use a flame to uncover hidden paths and solve intricate puzzles, while binaural sound design is employed to make creaks and burning embers feel vibrant. Every asset in the dark fantasy environment was sculpted in clay, 3D scanned, and animated to deliver a stop-motion aesthetic.

Playable on monitors and VR headsets, The Midnight Walk previously launched in May for PlayStation 5 and PS VR2, along with SteamVR and Windows through Steam.


A two-part dev diary is streaming on the PlayStation YouTube channel. The Original Game Soundtrack by WaveTale composer Joel Bille is hosted on Bandcamp and Steam, with streaming on Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music Unlimited.

Music is performed by Bortre Rymden, with Agnes Högberg on violin, Adrian Åsling Sellius on clarinet, alto saxophone and flute, and Viktor Turegård on tuba and double bass. Mastering for the 36-track album, recorded live in studio, is by Linus Andersson at Elementstudion.


From the announcement trailer video description:
Become The Burnt One, befriend a lost lantern creature named Potboy, and use his flame to light your way through a conflicting world of wonder and horror. Survive and outsmart the many monsters eager to devour your little friend’s flame as you experience five tales of fire and darkness, featuring an incredible cast of odd characters. Marvel at every disturbing detail in a landscape painstakingly handcrafted with real life clay and animated in a stop motion style!
