Respect NiGHTS

NiGHTS is a Nightmaren created by Wizeman the Wicked. He is a First-Level Nightmaren (the best of the best) just like Reala expect NiGHTS betrayed Wizeman and was imprisoned for it. Elliot and Claris frees NiGHTS to battle Wizeman and to stop the Nightmarens from stealing all the dreams.

Demand for a NiGHTS sequel has been big ever since NiGHTS into Dreams and now on the Nintendo Wii comes NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams. Will and Helen replace Elliot and Claris as the main characters.

Confirmed info for NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams
The game can be controlled using either the Wii Remote or the analog stick on the Nunchuk.

The game, after delay, will be released in Q1 2008 in Europe. It is currently unknown whether the US releasedate has also been set back, and to when.

The gameplay will involve the use of "persona masks". A dragon mask to allow Nights to withstand strong winds, the dolphin mask transforming it into a dolphin allowing Nights to swim, and the rocket mask to give it the ability to reach high speeds.

There will be a two player mode.

The game will likely include online features.

The game will be set in Nightopia, like the first, and will feature seven "worlds".

The game will have and use features from the Forecast Channel on the Wii.

Naofumi Hataya, one of the composers from the original game, is working on the sequel's music.

A new game engine has been designed, rather than sharing that of Sonic and the Secret Rings.

Nightopians will return, along with Nightmarens

Nights's rival Nightmaren, Reala, shall be returning. He wears a mask with black trim, a purple crest in the middle, and black feathers on each side. His look remains similar to his first appearance, but with much darker colors. The main enemy from the first game, Wizeman the Wicked, will also be making a return appearance.

Nights is voiced by a British voice actress, with a rather feminine voice.

Four levels have been confirmed so far. The first is called Alps Chase, which is a mountain-themed level, highly resembling Spring Valley from the original game. An unnamed tropical-themed dream, which highly resembles Splash Garden from Nights into Dreams, and a desert theme-park area, called the Dream of Desert. Finally there is a level called My Dream, though the theme is yet unclear. It seems to be a Chao Garden of sorts.

The boss from the Alps Chase level resembles Puffy from the original game. The player fights him in sort of a pinball machine, and has two minutes to hit Puffy upwards through a number of gates. While Nights is quite limited in movements in the main adventure, Nights is able to move around freely in the boss stages.

Some people says it's a boy, other people says it's a girl. From what I heard, NiGHTS have a girl's voice in the new game, so she is female... But I'm not completely sure.

It is a "Nightmaren", one is called Nights, However, Nights rebels against Wizeman's plans.

NiGHTS is a Nightmaren created by Wizeman to steal Red Ideya. NiGHTS is androgynous, a conscious design decision by Sonic Team and wears a purple jester style hat and outfit, with a diamond on the chest. It is not known to speak in the game, although it does make noise when it is injured.

In the story, NiGHTS turns on Wizeman and is sealed in the Ideya Palace until Elliot or Claris merge with NiGHTS.

Wizeman is the main antagonist of the game. He is the evil ruler of Nightmare, the bad dream half of the dreamworld. Wizeman is the creator of the Nightmaren: NiGHTS, Reala, Jackle, Clawz, Gulpo, Gillwing, and Puffy, as well as many minor maren seen in the levels. When Nights rebelled against Wizeman, Reala became Wizeman's henchman. Wizeman is the final boss of the game. He has an array of mystical powers and abilities. During the boss battle, he brings NiGHTS into different locations.

I doubt that is has a gender, Wiseman is the villain once again for the 2nd one, then again if you look Nights artwork it does have a female build.

Androgynous is a term derived from the Greek words that can refer to two concepts regarding the mixing of both male and female genders or having a lack of gender identification.
