Nomada Announces Neva Prologue DLC for February 19

Nomada Studio has announced Neva Prologue, a new downloadable content expansion for its acclaimed puzzle-platformer Neva, set for release on February 19. The DLC, priced at $2.99, was revealed during Sony's recent State of Play livestream and will be available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and Nintendo Switch.

The expansion serves as a prequel, taking place years before the events of the original game. It explores the origin of the bond between protagonist Alba and her wolf companion, Neva. According to the developer, players follow Alba as she pursues a trail of white butterflies into corrupted swamps, where she encounters a frightened wolf cub, lost and alone. To survive, Alba must gain the cub's trust and lead it through blighted wetlands while confronting dark forces that pursue them.
