Compare Prices(6 stores)
Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Aeterna Noctis
I found myself drawn to Aeterna Noctis not for what it markets, but for what it quietly achieves: a metroidvania that respects player mastery without hand-holding. The two-mode structure is the real innovation here. Standard mode lets you focus on exploration and combat encounters; Noctis mode layers in platforming precision that borders on bullet-hell territory. The pixel art carries genuine atmosphere, with a dark fairy-tale tone that sustains across the runtime. Exploration rewards curiosity, and the map design funnels you through satisfying vertical progression loops. That said, this is a game for players who *want* friction. If you're looking for a cozy metroidvania experience, keep walking. The gap between normal and Noctis difficulty is steep, and there's no difficulty slider for the middle ground. The soundtrack anchors the whole thing beautifully, pushing you through moments that would otherwise feel punishing. It's a small team's love letter to precision platformers wearing metroidvania clothes.
