Learn More About the Upcoming Cyberpunk Life and Management Sim Ahead of its September Launch

Milton Keynes, UK, August 19, 2026 – Ever wonder what it would be like to live in a futuristic city? Leading publisher 505 Games and developer ION LANDS have recently shared three videos that do just that. As part of their Developer Q&A Series to prepare players for their new life in the neon-drenched city ahead of the game’s September 29 launch on Steam, ION LANDS provides a look at the game, what players can do, and how they can get around the city by the ocean.

  • What Is Nivalis Nights?: Starting a new life in a bustling city that stretches from the ocean to the sky may seem daunting at first, but endless opportunities are at your fingertips. Meet the colourful citizens of Nivalis, uncover their stories, and build new connections as you find your place in the city and make the most of everything it has to offer.

What Can You Do in Nivalis Nights?: A city with countless possibilities offers players plenty of things to do as they move through each day. Learn how to start and grow your own business, manage menus and ingredients as your empire expands, and make your home a place to call your own by decorating to your hearts content.

How Do You Travel Around Nivalis Nights?: Exploring each of the city’s four districts might seem like a challenge in a bustling city, but Nivalis’ taxi, metro, make getting from point a to point b a snap, while a more leisurely boat ride through its waters invites players to experience this cyberpunk world on a whole new level.

Combining everything that draws you into the cozy life sims you love with a deep cyberpunk sim, Nivalis Nights, this cyberpunk slice-of-life sim, returns to the eponymous city from Cloudpunk.
