Neva Prologue DLC Announced: Release Date, Gameplay Details, and What to Expect
Nomada Studio, acclaimed for its award-winning title Gris, has officially revealed the 'Prologue' DLC for its atmospheric action-adventure game, Neva.
The expansion was announced today with a precise release date: February 19, 2026.
This upcoming content will be available on multiple platforms, including Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and PC, marking another ambitious entry in the studio’s growing portfolio of artistically driven narratives. Neva, developed by Barcelona-based Nomada Studio, first captured critical and commercial attention through its launch on the Nintendo Switch and other major platforms.
The title is praised for its emotionally charged storytelling, lush visuals, and intuitive gameplay, echoing the distinct style that made Gris a standout in the indie scene.
Since its debut, Neva has garnered a dedicated player base and industry recognition for its innovative approach to game design. In Neva Prologue, players will once again step into the role of Alba, who embarks on a gripping journey after following a mysterious trail of white butterflies deep into corrupted swamps.
Along the way, Alba encounters a terrified wolf cub, lost and vulnerable.
The core narrative revolves around Alba’s efforts to gain the cub's trust and navigate both characters safely through perilous wetlands, all while contending with oppressive, roaming threats that challenge their resolve at every turn. Nomada Studio has structured Neva Prologue as a post-main game experience.
The DLC is designed to provide returning players with increased difficulty and a more intricate storyline, building upon the emotional and thematic depths explored in the base game.
According to official details, Neva Prologue introduces three entirely new locations, each with its own distinct gameplay mechanics.
These environments promise fresh challenges, diverse enemies, and intense boss battles that will test players’ skills and adaptability. For those who enjoy uncovering every secret, Neva Prologue adds a layer of replay value: five hidden challenge flowers are scattered throughout the new locations, encouraging completionists to master the game’s expanded mechanics.
This focus on exploration and challenge is set to further enrich Neva’s signature blend of action, puzzle-solving, and narrative-driven design. "The Prologue aims to deepen Alba’s journey while rewarding dedicated fans of Neva with new gameplay experiences and richer storytelling," a spokesperson for Nomada Studio stated in the reveal, emphasizing the studio’s ongoing commitment to delivering meaningful expansions and supporting Neva’s active community. With its February 19, 2026 launch, the Neva Prologue DLC is positioned as one of the most anticipated post-release content drops for the Nintendo Switch eShop and other digital platforms.
As Nomada Studio continues to innovate within the indie game landscape, Neva’s expansion promises to captivate both new and returning players alike.
Stay tuned for further updates as the release date approaches.
