Fans of retro horror and isometric action-RPGs can finally mark their calendars—Kingdom of Night is set to launch on December 2, 2025, for PC via Steam, GOG, Humble Store, and itch.io. Developed by Friends of Safety and published by DANGEN Entertainment, this long-awaited title channels 1980s nostalgia with demonic flair, bringing a blend of cosmic horror, neon-soaked streets, and heart-pounding boss battles.
The newly released Release Date Trailer gives fans a closer look at the chaos unfolding in the quiet desert town of Miami, Arizona. It’s packed with thrilling new gameplay snippets—from infernal boss fights and eerie suburban scenes to the haunting presence of Baphomet’s cult—all underscored by a new original theme from Vince DiCola, the legendary composer behind Transformers: The Movie and Rocky IV.
A 1980s Horror Adventure Reimagined
Set in an alternate 1987, Kingdom of Night follows John, a teenager whose world turns upside down when his neighbor is kidnapped by a satanic cult. In their dark ritual, the cult accidentally unleashes Baphomet, plunging Miami, Arizona into a hellish nightmare.
What starts as a desperate rescue mission spirals into a cosmic showdown as John faces off against twisted townsfolk, mutated bullies, and demonic generals ruling over the night. Each hour brings new horrors, new choices, and new challenges in this story-driven journey across a sprawling, interconnected map.
A demo of Kingdom of Night is currently available on Steam, offering players a taste of the game’s unique blend of coming-of-age storytelling, fast-paced combat, and rich RPG systems.
