505 Games and Ion Lands have announced that Nivalis Nights has surpassed one million wishlists on Steam ahead of its September 29, 2026 release.
The cyberpunk life sim from the developer of Cloudpunk lets players build a business, form relationships, fish, decorate their home, and spend their time across the city of Nivalis.
One Million Players Have Wishlisted Nivalis Nights
Ion Lands Creative Director Marko Dieckmann marked the milestone by comparing it to the studio’s previous release.
“We launched Cloudpunk with about 130,000 wishlists, which already felt like a massive achievement for us back then,” Dieckmann said. “We are incredibly grateful for your patience and support, and we don’t take a single one of you for granted.”
Nivalis Nights has now crossed the one-million mark with less than two weeks remaining before release.
Build Your Own Business
Players can start small with businesses such as noodle stands and bars before expanding into larger restaurants and nightclubs.
Players can buy ingredients from marketplaces or gather them through activities like farming and fishing.
Business management is only one part of the game. Players can also spend time exploring districts on foot or by boat, meeting residents, building friendships, and pursuing romantic relationships.
Make Nivalis Your Home
Nivalis Nights also includes housing and customization systems.
Players can decorate their home or buy other residences while deciding how to spend their days.
The game returns to the same cyberpunk city introduced in Cloudpunk, this time placing greater focus on day-to-day life and player choice.
Launching September 29
Nivalis Nights launches September 29, 2026, for PC via Steam.
An Epic Games Store release is planned for a later date, with additional details coming later.
