NightRunner Is a Co-op Extraction Shooter Where You Defend a Moving Train, Playtest Hits Steam in September

German studio 314 Arts announced NightRunner on August 18, a 1 to 4 player co-op extraction shooter set after a solar catastrophe. Instead of a fixed base, squads defend a moving train called a wagon while scavenging, blending extraction runs, boss dungeons, and wave-survival tower defense. Runs are roguelite, with permanent Runner-Tech upgrades between them, and you only keep loot if you reach the destination. A public Steam playtest is planned for September, with full release in 2027.
