Developer and publisher Elden Pixels (Alwa’s Awakening, Alwa’s Legacy) has announced that its latest title, A Void Hope, will launch on the Nintendo Switch on February 29th, 2024.
Showcasing some truly beautiful pixel art visuals and an intriguing, mysterious narrative, the game sees you take on a journey to find a cure for a collapsed city. Avoiding combat and focusing on exploration and puzzle-solving will prove vital in conquering the game as foreboding enemies look to take you down.
This seems to be quite a departure from the studio’s previous work. We were particularly taken with Alwa’s Legacy, scoring it a solid 9/10 in our review. Judging from the trailer alone, A Void Hope looks like it will hopefully continue Elden Pixels’ strong run when it lands later this month.
Here’s a look at the key features:
