Nodusfall and NODUS FALL are the same game
Official English metadata on nodusfall.hoyoverse.com titles the site The official website of "Nodusfall" is now live! and lists Nodusfall among page-keywords with HoYoverse Pre-Research UE5, Realistic Fantasy, Online Co-op, Multiplayer PvE, and Epic Boss Battles. Social handles follow the one-word form: X @Nodusfall, YouTube @Nodusfall, Discord Nodusfall Official. Japanese official surfaces use ノーダスフォール; Simplified Chinese official surfaces use 源初之结.
The SEO key art and YouTube thumbnail letter NODUS FALL as a stacked lockup, and trade pages such as IGN's trailer listing use the two-word form Nodus Fall. Neither spelling is treated here as a correction of the other. Searchers using either string should land on this hub rather than a split pair of pages. The case-cover chip on this dossier uses NODUS FALL because that is the lettering on the official still, while body copy leads with Nodusfall because that is the live page-title.
HoYoverse is the public brand; Cognosphere issued the Japanese press release. Official keywords call the look Realistic Fantasy and HoYoverse Pre-Research UE5. The English trailer description states footage was captured using Unreal Engine 5 and is not the final product. That is an engine and art-direction fact from first-party copy, not a storefront or ship-date claim.
Official debut news 165735
The only official news record in channel 1349 is content id 165735, titled Nodusfall, a Brand-New Multi-Mythology Co-Op Action Game, Makes Its Official Debut at Gamescom! It was created 14 August 2026 and scheduled 26 August 2026 00:00:00. GamesIndustry.biz recorded Nodusfall opening gamescom Opening Night Live. Official X @Nodusfall posted the same night.
The article's worldbuilding block says Nodusfall draws inspiration from diverse mythologies, uses a realistic art style, and will reveal regions with distinct ecosystems, cultures, and histories. It describes ancient beasts rooted in eastern folklore and colossal dragons that herald catastrophe as examples of the setting's legendary creatures, without naming a roster or a map.
Players fall into a shattered realm as Weavers, shaped and awakened by the essence of creation, and must sever the Dreadnodus at its root. Combat copy says players form squads, customize combat styles and skill combinations, keep pressure on massive beasts, and receive resources plus new skills and weapons after defeating powerful creatures. The close asks Weavers to stay tuned and does not publish a date, platform list, price, or monetization model.
Four official feature stills
The homepage stills are not a character select. They are four promotional captures in a fixed official order, each bound to a feature title and summary from English mi18n. Face Mighty Foes, Reweave the Miracle puts the Weaver against colossal foes born of legend. Stand Together, Break the Deadlock is the co-op beat: team up, fight side by side, restore new order. Seize Their Power, Shatter Their Might is the Divine Skills unlock. Slay, Forge, Build, Evolve covers switching roles and loadouts and claiming relics.
Use the caption-rail stepper above to step those four stills without turning them into a four-up card grid. Full feature text, the squad combat loop from news 165735, and the co-op stills that this route is allowed to host live on Co-Op Action Game. Named playable characters, weapon names, and numeric combat values are not in the official pack.
The SEO key art below the copy shows four anonymous Weavers on a cliff under a torn sky with the NODUS FALL lockup. Official text never names those figures. Treat the still as identity art for the announcement, not as a leaked roster.
What to do after the reveal
The live official CTA is Pre-Register. After registration succeeds, the homepage modal says: Fill out the recruitment survey for a chance at beta access. This site does not host the HoYoverse account form and cannot inject the survey URL; that field is empty in public mi18n. The test window itself is unpublished.
Read Weaver for the player role (Japanese 織り手, Chinese 织者) and Dreadnodus for the named calamity (Japanese 死結, Chinese 死结). Chronicles of the Divine Weave currently unlocks one chapter, Primordial Myth; later slots stay locked with Stay tuned. Nodusfall release date lists unpublished fields as unpublished, including the empty Steam and App Store searches.
The English reveal trailer on this page is the official YouTube upload Nodusfall First Reveal Trailer: Wield Divinity, Sever the Dreadnodus. The Japanese PV and the English short live on the Weaver and co-op routes because those are the routes the media contract assigns. Chapter links below the facade switch to those routes instead of loading a second video onto this hub.
What this hub will not guess
Steam storesearch for Nodusfall returned zero items. The iTunes software search did not return a first-party Nodusfall client. Official news does not print a price or a monetization model. Official Pre-Register offers a chance at beta access via survey and does not name a test window. Those empties are captured on Nodusfall release date, not filled from trailer chrome.
Named playable characters are likewise unpublished. Key art shows several Weavers; official text names none of them. This hub therefore has no /characters/ index. Weaver is a role file. Dreadnodus is a threat file. Chronicles of the Divine Weave currently unlocks Primordial Myth only.
Instagram and Facebook official keys are empty in mi18n. Do not follow unofficial lookalike accounts as first-party. The channel table on this page is the sealed English, Japanese, and Chinese directory. Use Pre-Register on the official homepage when you want the live task, not a header CTA that would bounce you out of this dossier.
