The player character is a Revenant, who is &#8216;tasked to embark into the world with a companion picked from the various residents of Vein to uncover lost memories and an exit out of this new demented reality.&#8217; Sounds lovely.<\/p>\n<p>There will be a variety of weapons to use, including swords, hammers, and other melee bringers-of-death, but the Revenant also have enhanced vampiric abilities known as &#8216;Gifts&#8217;, such as the ability to feed off enemies.<\/p>\n<p>Players will also have an AI partner, who will help you, but you will also need to aid them in battle.<\/p>\n<p>You can expect a trailer in early May, but in the meantime, enjoy some more screenshots below:<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin:
