New Nightingale demo lets you check in on the revitalized fantasy survival game

It's been a long road for Nightingale, but it feels like momentum is finally in its favor. The early access survival game landed to a decidedly frosty reception in February 2024, with its beautiful world design marred by underwhelming combat, a lack of direction, and restrictive building caps. Developer Inflexion Games has made a lot of changes since then, however, with the transformative 'Realms Rebuilt' update followed by major crafting, customization, and build mode improvements. Most recently, it opened the doors to Nightingale City and another tier of endgame gear options. Now, it invites anyone who might be curious to try the game for free with a limited-time demo and offers a serious discount if you like it.
