Developer and writer Ion Lands has introduced that Nivalis, the bold followup to cyberpunk taxi-driving sim Cloudpunk, is launching in spring 2025.
The sport takes place in the identical metropolis as Cloudpunk, but it surely’ll supply a special sort of gameplay; as an alternative of ferrying packages round, you will be operating your very personal cyberpunk restaurant, which might doubtlessly blossom right into a nightlife empire.
As you accomplish that, you will meet the locals, get to know them, and befriend them, and Ion Lands says you could even be capable of discover love, so it appears like no less than a number of the metropolis’s inhabitants can be romanceable.

Whereas in your boat, you will additionally be capable of go fishing, and though Ion Lands does not specify whether or not you can use the fish you catch as substances to your meals, that looks as if a no brainer to me.
Ion Lands has additionally launched a model new trailer for Nivalis, and it provides a take a look at some “never-before-seen places”, in addition to dropping some hints as to what the sport’s story is perhaps. You’ll be able to test it out right here.
After all, since this can be a slice-of-life sim, you can beautify your very own residence as nicely, and you can personal a number of residences.
There will not be any form of fight component within the sport both, so in case you desire your cyberpunk experiences somewhat extra chilled-out and mellow, it seems like this one can be for you.
