BANDAI NAMCO has announced Code Vein, an upcoming third-person action RPG with vampire themes.

In Code Vein you are tasked with uncovering lost memories in order to escape a nightmarish world. This world is one in ruin, with buildings collapsed and ghastly ghouls at every corner.

You play as a Revenant, a member of a secret society called Vein. Revenants have traded their memories for powerful abilities and an unrelenting thirst for blood. These abilities play an important role in the minute-to-minute gameplay experience, allowing you to perform flashy attacks in addition to transitioning between various forms that each have their own strengths and weaknesses.

While the world has a dark atmosphere you won't be alone. A companion will accompany you as powerful bosses and swarms of enemies try to take your life.
