LOS ANGELES, JULY 31, 2025 - Developer Nice Dream™ and publisher Skybound Games™ have announced via today’s Nintendo Direct that Goodnight Universe™, the spiritual successor to the BAFTA-winning Before Your Eyes™ and winner of the 2024 Tribeca Games Award, will be available on November 11 for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. On camera-compatible platforms, Goodnight Universe uses the innovative “camera as controller” mode that debuted in Before Your Eyes, but now in new and inventive ways as you step into the role of Isaac, a 6-month-old baby developing mysterious psychic powers.
The leading cast includes Lewis Pullman (Thunderbolts*, Top Gun Maverick) as the main character Isaac, and Kerri Kenney-Silver (Reno 911, The Four Seasons), Al Madrigal (The Daily Show, Lopez vs. Lopez), and Tessa Espinola (S.W.A.T, The Big Show Show) as Isaac’s family. Beau Bridges (Matlock, Homeland), Timothy Simons (VEEP, Nobody Wants This.) and Sarah Burns (Barry, Unfrosted) are cast in supporting character voice roles.
Reviewer’s note: The game should take around 3-4 hours to complete. Reviewers, it's highly recommended that you play with a camera to track your eye movement, with headphones on.
