Free Demo Walkthrough

You can play Moonlight Peaks right now. A free demo is live on Steam and the Nintendo Switch eShop ahead of the July 7, 2026 full release.

How to Download the Demo

  1. PC (Steam): Visit the official Steam store page and click Download Demo.
  2. Nintendo Switch: Open the Nintendo eShop, search for “Moonlight Peaks,” and select Free Demo.
  3. Install the demo and launch it from your library or home screen.

What’s in the Demo?

The demo is a relaxed sandbox slice of the early game rather than a timed mission. It is designed to show the vibe and daily loop.

  • Character creation: Try the gender-neutral vampire creator.
  • Magical mini-games: Fishing, flower arranging and embroidery are all playable.
  • Meet the locals: Chat with some of the town’s supernatural residents.
  • Gathering: Collect crafting materials for the home you will build in the full game.

Does Demo Progress Carry Over?

No. Your demo save does not carry over to the full game. Treat the demo as a try-before-you-buy taster; when Moonlight Peaks launches on July 7, 2026, you will start fresh.

Hidden Activities & Demo Tips

While the demo is mostly linear, you can stretch your time by exploring the town at night, trying every mini-game, and talking to each resident multiple times. These early conversations hint at the romance options covered in our characters & romance guide.
