How to Play Moonlight Peaks
New to Moonlight Peaks? Start here for platforms, demo access, supported languages, and the core vampire farming loop now that the game is live.
Moonlight Peaks is out now on Steam (Windows and macOS), Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, and Android via Google Play Games. You play as a young vampire rebuilding an abandoned homestead, farming by moonlight, learning witchcraft, and befriending or romancing the residents of a magical mountain town. This guide orients new players on day one.
Step one: buy or try first
The full game is live — see release status and the price page for the 15% launch discount through July 14, 2026. Not sure yet? The free demo on Steam and Switch still teaches till-plant-water basics and Orlock's wine quest.
Step two: pick your input method
Controller support is the recommended default. Keyboard and mouse work on PC but with quirks on the controls page. Run one full night on the device you plan to use for a long save.
Step three: learn the nightly loop
Wake after dusk, tend crops, socialize, forage or fish, then return to your coffin before sunrise. Start with the beginner tips and first-week walkthrough rather than guessing priorities. Magic from town witches reduces watering — see the farming overview.
Languages and account regions
The game ships in English, German, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese. Set platform language before first launch if you prefer non-English UI. Asian Nintendo releases may list July 9 — see release date.
After install
Bookmark the crop planner and gift tracker. Read launch reviews if you want critic scores before buying. No redeem codes or microtransactions — one purchase unlocks the full experience.
