    Physical Editions of Hunt the Night Out Now on PS5 and Nintendo Switch!

    The wait is officially over for indie gaming collectors and dark fantasy enthusiasts. Publisher Selecta Play, in a powerhouse partnership with developer Moonlight Games and publisher DANGEN Entertainment, has officially launched the highly anticipated physical editions of Hunt the Night for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5.

    Initially debuting on consoles digitally earlier this year, this stunning, retro-style action-RPG is finally getting the boxed, retail treatment it deserves—ready to take its rightful, permanent spot on your gaming shelf.

    Face the Extinction Cycle in Medhram

    For the uninitiated, Hunt the Night drops players into the bleak, beautifully animated 9th Age of humanity. In this world, the day belongs to humans, but the Night brings total, horrific annihilation.

    You play as Vesper, a skilled member of the elite order known as “The Stalkers” and the daughter of a notorious traitor. In a desperate race against destiny, Vesper must harness the powers of darkness itself to traverse the ruined, atmospheric landscapes of Medhram, conquer brutal dungeons, and hunt down the ancient horrors of the Night to save the last embers of humanity.

    What Makes Hunt the Night a Must-Play?

    • Fast-Paced, Precision Combat: Fluidly switch between slashing melee combos and tactical ranged attacks. Dash through nightmarish enemies and master complex patterns to survive.
    • Brutal Multi-Phase Bosses: Test your grit against ancient horrors in intense boss fights that require you to learn weaknesses, adapt on the fly, and perfect your build.
    • Deep Build Customisation: Tailor Vesper’s arsenal to your exact playstyle. Upgrade stats and gear to specialise in Close Combat, Critical Damage, Lifesteal, Poison, or raw Firepower.
    • A Hauntingly Beautiful World: Explore a sprawling dark fantasy landscape filled with ancient cathedrals, forgotten libraries, lost kingdoms, and devastated floating cities.
    • An Iconic Soundtrack: Immerse yourself in the dark atmosphere with a brilliant score featuring contributions from legendary Secret of Mana composer Hiroki Kikuta.

  • To Infinity and Back to the ’90s: Atari and Digital Eclipse Announce Two Huge “Toy Story” Retro Collections!

    To Infinity and Back to the ’90s: Atari and Digital Eclipse Announce Two Huge “Toy Story” Retro Collections!

    Hey, Pixar fans and retro gamers, clutch your favourite cowboy boots and space helmets tight. Atari and the preservation wizards at Digital Eclipse have just announced a massive double-whammy of nostalgic goodness: Toy Story: Retro Roundup! and Toy Story 3 Complete Edition.

    If you grew up trying to survive the dreaded conveyor belt level on the SNES or spent your childhood summers glued to a CRT monitor, your inner child is about to throw a massive party. Here is everything we know about these two incredible upcoming releases.

    1. Toy Story: Retro Roundup!

    Remember when movie tie-in games were absolutely ruthless? Toy Story: Retro Roundup! is a love letter to the 16-bit and 32-bit eras that defined a generation. Digital Eclipse is giving the classic, beautifully animated 1995 Toy Story game (originally on Sega Genesis and SNES) and the action-packed Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue! (the beloved PS1/N64 era platformer) the royal treatment.

    What to Expect:

    • Pixel-Perfect Emulation: Play the games exactly as you remember them, but sharper than ever.
    • The Digital Eclipse “Museum” Treatment: Dive into rare, behind-the-scenes concept art, developer interviews, and design documents exploring how Pixar worked with game developers in the ’90s.
    • Modern Quality-of-Life Features: Thank the gaming gods for rewind buttons, save states, and custom video filters. You can finally beat that claw machine level without tearing your hair out.

    2. Toy Story 3 Complete Edition

    Let’s be honest: Toy Story 3 (2010) had absolutely no business being as incredible as it was. While the story mode was great, it was the legendary Toy Box Mode that cemented it as an all-time classic open-world sandbox.

    The Complete Edition brings this masterpiece to modern platforms with all its original DLC and a shiny new coat of paint.

    Why You’ll Be Hooked (Again):

    • The Ultimate Toy Box: Build your own Western towns, race through space, and customise your village with total creative freedom.
    • Performance Boosts: Expect buttery-smooth framerates, crisp 4K resolution, and lightning-fast load times.
    • Definitive Package: All previously released side missions, customisation packs, and extra characters are bundled right into the core game.

    Why This Partnership Just Works

    Atari and Digital Eclipse have proven time and again that they don’t just “port” old games—they preserve them. Following their incredible work on Atari 50 and various interactive timelines, giving the Toy Story franchise this documentary-style interactive treatment is a massive win for video game history.

    Whether you’re looking to relive the brutal difficulty of 90s side-scrollers or want to lose another 50 hours creating chaos in Woody’s roundup, this dual announcement is a massive win for gamers of all generations.

    Release Details: Platforms and exact launch dates are still under wraps, but keep your eyes locked right here on BizNooz for the second the pre-orders drop!
