Dontnod gives Vampyr the E3 2016 trailer treatment
Life Is Strange wasn’t Dontnod Entertainment’s first game, but the apocalyptic adventure game put the developer on the map in a big way last year, and fans are eager to learn more about what the studio is up to next. With E3 in the air, the developer has decided that this year’s Expo is the perfect opportunity to give us another look at their followup, the action RPG Vampyr.
Vampyr takes place in London, at the height of the Spanish Flu epidemic of 1918. Players will take control of Dr. Jonathan Reid, a recently-turned vampire who fights between his pledge to heal the sick, and his uncontrollable thirst for blood. But unfortunately for us, the good doctor isn’t able to keep his hunger at bay forever, and the question of “Should I kill?” quickly morphs into the much different question, “Who should I kill?” According to Dontnod, the choices players make in who lives and who dies will ultimately cause “deadly ramifications” for the city around them.
Vampyr will be released for the PC, PS4, and Xbox One in 2017.
