New Moonlight Peaks Trailer | Marvelous Games

Moonlight Peaks, the supernatural farming sim where you tend crops after dark and rub shoulders with werewolves and witches, launches on July 7, 2026. To mark the occasion, a Summerween giveaway is running right now with 9 free codes split across Steam, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2. You have until release day to enter.

What is actually in the giveaway

The breakdown is 3 codes for Steam (worldwide eligibility), 3 codes for Nintendo Switch (European region), and 3 codes for Nintendo Switch 2 (European region). The region restriction is worth flagging if you are outside Europe and eyeing a Switch code, since those will not work on a North American or Asian account. Steam codes have no such limitation.

Entries close on July 7 when the game officially releases, so the window is tight. The giveaway is running through the Gleam platform, where you pick your platform of choice and enter through the available options.

The game itself, if you have not been following it

Moonlight Peaks takes the life-sim formula popularized by games like Stardew Valley and flips the schedule. Everything happens at night. You farm, raise animals, cast spells, catch mysterious bugs, and build relationships with a town full of supernatural characters, including vampires, werewolves, and witches.

Here is the thing: the nocturnal twist is not just cosmetic. The whole tone of the game leans into spooky-cozy territory, which has been quietly building its own audience alongside more traditional farming sims. If you have been watching the rise of adventure games with a creepy edge, Moonlight Peaks fits squarely into that movement.

The game has been on Nintendo fans' radar for a couple of years, and it is launching simultaneously on Steam and both Switch generations, which is a solid sign the developer is committed to a broad release rather than a staggered rollout.

Why a giveaway timed to launch day matters

Running a giveaway that closes exactly on release day is a smart move for a smaller indie title. It keeps the game in conversation during the final week of pre-launch buzz, and it gives players who might be on the fence a reason to pay attention right now rather than adding it to a wishlist and forgetting about it.

For cozy game fans who have been burned by overhyped farm sims before, a free copy lowers the barrier to trying something new. Nine codes is not a massive pool, but the odds are reasonable given the niche audience.

important
Switch codes are restricted to the European region. If you are entering from North America or Asia, the Steam option is your best bet for a working code.

What to expect when it launches

Moonlight Peaks drops July 7 across Steam, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo Switch 2. If the giveaway does not go your way, keep an eye on the game's Steam page for launch pricing. For players who enjoy the dungeon-crawling and merchant loop of games like Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault, the blend of resource management and character-driven progression in Moonlight Peaks should feel familiar in the best way.

Pro tip: if you want a head start on building out your farm strategy before launch, the gaming guides hub is worth bookmarking for when community tips start rolling in post-release.
