CODE VEIN - Release Date Announcement 

Next on the list is a game with far darker themes. Originally set to be released this year, this action RPG by Bandai Namco was delayed until 2019. The story centers on the Revenants, a group of former humans who gave up their memories and embraced a life of vampiric bloodlust to survive the end of humanity. The landscape has been pierced with strange thorns and the mindless Lost wander the land searching for prey. The trailers for this game have dropped tantalizing hints at various aspects of the story, but for now we just know that it’s dark and dramatic—exactly how a good vampire story should be.

Code Vein characters

Apparently dress code requires all Revenants to wear a suitably stylish mask.

Code Vein combat

The combat is flashy, bloody, and melee-focused.
