Beyond the Dark: Nightwatch

Nintendo Switch 2

FACE YOUR FEARS… TOGETHER

BEYOND THE DARK: NIGHTWATCH Choose who to trust. One of you explores a strange House. The other observes through a surveillance system. Choose a role. You will need to communicate, observe and improvise to survive. Silence is death. Making noise is dangerous. THE ENTITY IS LISTENING. AN EXPERIENCE DESIGNED FOR TWO Beyond the Dark: Nightwatch is based on asymmetric cooperation: each player has a different role, tools, and information. The Explorer moves through the house, searches for clues, opens new passages, and faces danger head-on. The Overseer uses cameras, documents, utilities, and surveillance tools to understand the situation and guide their partner. Communication is key. Resolve is necessary. YOU CANNOT ESCAPE ALONE. A THRILLING INVESTIGATION Explore a mysterious house, analyze clues, solve puzzles, and uncover the truth behind the strangest of places. Keep noise and disturbances to a minimum. Some dangers are visible. Some are intangible. ALL ARE DEADLY. ONLINE, USING GAMESHARE OR ON LOCAL NETWORK, INVITE SOMEONE TO JOIN YOU Designed around two screens, separate perspectives, and shared gameplay, Beyond the Dark: Nightwatch transforms the Nintendo Switch™ 2 into a unique cooperative experience. Invite your most dependable partner to experience a night of tension, coordination, trust… and perhaps panic together. Not just a game to finish. A night to remember. FACE YOUR FEARS… TOGETHER
