In May of this year, the same State of Play that had big reveals like Astro Bot, and the gameplay debut of Concord. Also revealed a hit trailer for the upcoming title Infinity Nikki, by Infold. Infinity Nikki is set to be a vast open world game with graphics you would see in a Square Enix. Coupled with a very cozy vibe and simplistic gameplay goals. Being a free-to-play title, it is going to be launching on the PlayStation 5, and mobile devices. Such as iOS and Android phones. The game is boasting over having 30 million pre-registrations and considering the type of game it is, it is not hard to see why. But with a little less than a week before it launches, why should you have your eye on it?
What You Need to know about Infinity Nikki
Infinity Nikki will put you in the shoes of Nikki as she finds herself in the expansive Miraland. Exploring its many locations in search of Whimstars. In the game Nikki will have an assortment of dresses that will have their own unique abilities to help with exploring in the game. Taken from the official PlayStation blog, here are some direct gameplay impressions:
As a Stylist, Nikki can make clothes that grant her abilities. Early on, she’ll have two outfits–one that lets her float after jumping and another that lets her shoot purifying energy–that she can access by simply pressing a button. However, to get more fabulous powers, she’ll need to acquire sketches: blueprints for new clothing parts. There are many ways to get sketches–you can find them in chests, earn them from quests, and so on–but many of the most important outfit sketches are acquired and enhanced through Nikki’s Infinity Heart tree. In order to unlock parts of the tree, Nikki will need to find Whimstars scattered throughout the world. – Heidi Kamps/PlayStation Blog
When it comes to Infinity Nikki, it will be focused on a lot of platforming. With some enemy encounters and honestly impressive looking boss fights and a lot of cozy mini games to engage in. Like fishing, catching bugs and even cleaning animals. It will fill a very specific spot for those who just want something to relax with. Similar to something like, say Animal Crossing: New Horizons which weirdly enough launched at a time where everyone needed something to relax to in the gaming space. If you would like to see what this game looks like in motion, you can find their most recent gameplay trailer below:
