It is designed for players who enjoy action combat paired with economic simulation.

help Moonlighter FAQ

How does Moonlighter’s shop-and-dungeon loop work?

You play Will, a shopkeeper who explores dangerous dungeons at night and sells recovered goods in his store during the day. Money from the shop can improve equipment, the village of Rynoka, and future dungeon runs.

Who developed Moonlighter?

Moonlighter was developed by Digital Sun, a Spanish game studio. The game was released in 2018 and combines action RPG combat with shop management.

What happens when Will dies in a dungeon?

A failed dungeon run can cost Will the items he was carrying, so deciding what to keep and what to sell is part of the risk. The shop economy makes each expedition more than a straightforward combat mission.

Does Moonlighter have a named expansion?

Yes, the game has the Between Dimensions expansion, which adds new content beyond the original dungeon loop. The base game still centers on Will, Rynoka, shopkeeping, and dungeon exploration.
