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.


On September 20, console players will be able to set sail for adventure as they explore a gorgeously crafted Norse-themed world while creating the tools and weapons they need to survive the onslaught of monsters both above-ground, and in the deadly dungeons of the underworld — all of which are part of their quest to earn entry into Valhalla!

For the game’s console release, developer and publisher Ellada games is adding new content and creatures over the original PC release, including more bosses and special magic items, along with balance updates and a repair mechanic.
 
“With the upcoming launch of Niffelheim on consoles, we are thrilled to invite would-be warriors to join the quest to enter Valhalla,” said Andrey Arutyunyan, Co-Founder of Ellada Games. “Niffelheim will bring a whole new survival-adventure experience to consoles, one featuring elements that fans of survival, crafting, adventure, and action genres can find something to enjoy!"

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
  • Explore the world, complete quests, make alliances…the options are nearly endless
  • 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
  • Upgrade your character's abilities within a classic RPG skill tree

Currently available on PC (Steam), Niffelheim is coming to Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox One on September 20, 2019.
