Heaven’s Vault – the sublime sci-fi-tinged archeological adventure from 80 Days, Sorcery, and Pendragon developer Inkle – will be making its way to Nintendo Switch on 28th January.
Released on PC and PlayStation 4 to much acclaim last year, Heaven’s Vault tells the story of Aliya Elasra and her robot companion Six, as they explore the mysterious Nebula in search of a missing person and an ancient civilisation.
As with Inkle’s previous story-heavy offerings, the real star of the show is the wonderful prose, subtly reshaping based on choices made throughout the adventure. Here though, there’s the added draw of archaeological discovery as players explore the strikingly designed world, with Heaven’s Vault placing a fascinating focus on learning a long-forgotten language – one character at a time – to make sense of the places and relics Aliya encounters on her travels.
