Aeterna Noctis

Aeterna Noctis is a challenging 2D hand-drawn action platformer in which you play as the King of Darkness, exploring a non-linear world and fighting to regain your powers. Its story follows a curse imposed by the Supreme God Chaos: after his creations rebelled and sought to claim the world of Aeterna, he named their leaders the King of Darkness and Queen of Light and condemned them to fight forever.

Explore Aeterna

The world consists of 16 connected areas, which you can navigate in different directions and at your own pace along a defined story path. The journey includes side quests, puzzles and challenges. As you regain your powers, precise movement and combat controls let you approach obstacles in multiple ways and move faster as your skills improve.

The world, animations and environmental details use traditional hand-drawn, frame-by-frame art. The game also features voice-acted cutscenes in eight languages and more than 40 music tracks, each with its own theme.

Choose a mode

Aeterna Noctis has two modes, and you can switch between them at any time without losing progress. Switching reloads the game at the last save point, and some achievements can only be unlocked in Noctis Mode.

• Aeterna Mode: focuses on action and exploration for a Metroidvania experience.
• Noctis Mode: adds constant puzzles, platforming sections and challenges intended for players seeking a more demanding experience.
