Code Vein
Last week, Bandai Namco teased a new RPG project, and today the company has revealed it's a console title named Code Vein.
The game takes place in the future where vampires called revenants balance their formidable abilities with the danger of becoming one of The Lost – ghouls drained of their humanity.
Code Vein is a "story-driven connected dungeon experience," where you choose a partner that complements your combat style. Weapons (such as bayonets, axes, and spears) have their own abilities, and these combine with Blood Veil attacks, which are fueled by the blood of your enemies.
Bandai Namco is saying Code Vein is coming to "major home consoles" in 2018.

We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.

We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk.
