Q-Games released the horror title Beyond the Dark: Nightwatch for Nintendo Switch 2 on October 22, 2026. The game is priced at 2480 yen including tax.
Developed by Atlantis Studio, the game focuses on asymmetrical cooperative gameplay designed exclusively for two players. Participants must combine information gathered from distinct perspectives to escape a creepy mansion, making constant communication essential for survival.
To mark the launch, three Japan-exclusive movie-style posters have been unveiled. Additionally, the Beyond the Dark: Nightwatch World Championship is running from today until November 2.
The competition requires pairs to stream their gameplay on Twitch to vie for high scores. The winning team will receive a trip to Edinburgh, Scotland, which covers five nights of hotel accommodation and round-trip travel expenses.
