Nightingale Weapons Guide

Not sure what weapon to pick? Then look no further than this Nightingale weapons guide

Inflexion Games have just released the much awaited survival game Nightingale, and it plays as good as it looks. Set in a Victorian steampunk era, we see Earth falling victim to a disaster, which causes interdimensional travelers to flee to other realms. One such traveler is what the player can control, as you try and survive the hostile lands of Nightingale.

Surviving will require many tactics and resources, and weapons are pretty high on the priority list. That being said, in Nightingale, you’ll have the option to craft armaments just like in any other survival game, and it’s crucial to know which weapons will suit your playstyle. That’s why we conjured this article for you, so that you’ll know where and how to craft gear to send the intergalactic creatures to another dimension!

Crafting is relatively the same as in all other survival games for Nightingale. You find the recipe for the weapon you wish to use, then gather the necessary materials required to craft them. After that, go to a crafting bench and find the weapon you want to craft. Weapons you can craft are highlighted in a bold black font, and if you don’t have the necessary materials, then the weapon name will be in red font. Lastly, press the craft button to spend your materials and make the weapon of your desire!
