Niffelheim is a 2D action and exploration game, that will combine beautiful hand-crafted art with a massive over- and under-world along with crafting to offer players an enthralling experience as they explore a world infested with evil.

Ancient horrors never die…and neither do you. Rise up and face Death’s demonic hordes. Fight against raging spirits in defiance of the cruel and ancient forces that rule the land.

Explore the darkness, battle the creeping evil – tunnel and search through the underworld, harvest food and resources. Explore eldritch caverns, set up a stronghold. Fight and trade. Hunt and build farms. Craft unique weapons and tools. Enslave an ancient force. Conquer enemy lands. March against the demons of death.

All this, and more, will be part of your experience as you play Niffelheim, the 2D action & crafting game, featuring a lavishly illustrated world, all crafted by our hands, but explored by you.

What’s new in the Niffelheim content update:

  • Balance updates to bosses and enemies alike! Loot has also been rebalanced with a new loot spawning system
  • Action tips provided on-screen to provide a more comfortable and welcoming experience for new and returning players that can be disabled in the settings menu
  • Never be hungry! Satiety has been rebalanced to ensure players’ stomachs stay fuller longer to keep starvation at bay
  • All character animations have been reworked so each character will have a refreshing bit of individuality  
  • Enemy mobs and bosses have been randomly dispersed among dungeons so that each exploration is unpredictable and thrilling!      

Ellada Games also revealed that Niffelheim is slated to release onto the Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox One consoles this Spring. 

Key Features:

  • A 2D exploration game featuring a massive world, both above and below ground, for you to explore and build your kingdom within
  • Beautiful, hand-painted levels portray a sinister, yet intriguing world, inviting you to explore the darkness
  • Battle through endless caverns and dungeons with more evil than gold inside- creatures and monsters that defy description await their fates at the end of your blade

  • Cooperative Multiplayer. Play alongside AI heroes, or invite your friends to help you (or battle against)
  • Harvest resources, build a castle, develop farms, craft weapons and tools
