LightWitch and Blue Lily have announced that Kickstarter-funded game Moonlight Pale will release for PlayStation 4/5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. It will release on the aforementioned platforms, alongside PC via Steam, in Q4 2026/Q1 2027.
The PlayStation 5 and Switch versions will release in both standard and “Super Eclipse” physical editions. The standard edition will include the base game, game manual, and a “Juliette and Lily” photograph. On the other hand, the “Super Eclipse” edition includes the standard edition content, as well as a mini art book, magnetic keychain, enamel pin, and acrylic diorama, all in one special box. While the Kickstarter campaign has already reached its goal of $16,000, it won’t end until July 4, so there is still time to fund its next and final stretch goal: more animated cutscenes.
The Steam page describes Moonlight Pale as follows:
