Eternights was formally revealed as part of the June 2022 State of Play with a promising trailer showcasing many of the game's unique features. It sees players having to make their way through a post-apocalyptic world that sees the majority of the population turned into monsters, as the remaining group ends up with special powers. The game has a rather interesting direction behind it as it serves as a real-time action-RPG with dating sim elements behind some game-changing choices.

The title is being developed by a small indie studio known as Studio Sai. Eternights is its first release, coming to PS4, PS5, and PC next year. The indie game has been in development for at least two years, and fans can watch Eternights' development over the years through Studio Sai's YouTube account, as well as its Twitter.
