Repeated intro
Greetings, Hunters.
Extracted changes
- Gameplay
The Gloom spreads unchecked, and the city of Wraithford rots from within.
Nightholme is a multiplayer horror experience where teams of 3 track monstrous Gloomfiends through a decaying city twisted by corruption.
But you’re not alone. Other Grimrunners seek the same prey: stay hidden and focus on the hunt, or hunt them down before they hunt you, in a tense blend of stealth and action.
Drink the Nocturn. Shift between human and monster.
Each transformation brings power… but inches you closer to madness.
Key Features
A Different Kind of PvEvP: Forget domination modes and twitch gunfights, there are no guns in Nightholme. You are the weapon. The horror lies in being both predator and prey, hunted by monsters... and other players.
- Transformations & SpecializationChoose your archetype, then shift between human and monstrous forms—gaining power while risking your sanity. Unlock new abilities and evolve your playstyle through branching skill paths.
Hunt Bosses. Outplay Rivals. Track clues, grow in power, and choose when to engage, or avoid, rival squads as you race toward the final encounter. Each hunt ends with a unique and terrifying Gloomfiend, and no two runs play the same. Win, and carry power forward with persistent upgrades between hunts.
- World & LoreA layered universe of cosmic horror and twisted folklore, where classic nightmares are reimagined in disturbing new ways. The deeper you dig, the stranger it gets.
Join Us on This Journey
We’re Studio Ellipsis, a small outfit of seasoned devs from the AAA world, forging something new in Lisbon, Portugal.
We believe worldbuilding is foundational, that mechanics, story, characters, and even emotion should emerge from the world itself.
Fear is a universal language. That’s why our first project begins in horror; a genre that demands coherence, rewards imagination, and lets us launch our first game into bold, uncharted territory.
This is our beginning. Join us, and follow the journey.
