Redfall, Arkane Austin’s upcoming vampire-slaying, multiplayer open-world shooter is nearly here, which means we’re treated to a glorious launch trailer to make sure everyone knows it’s time to Bite Back.
The three-minute trailer doesn’t offer much in the way of new information, but it does serve as a hype-worthy reminder that this is 100% an Arkane joint bearing all the signature hallmarks from the stylish aesthetic to the fantastic worldbuilding and inventive weapons and combat mechanics.
You can check out the trailer below, and hopefully it’s enough to convince you to re-up that Game Pass subscription and have a bash with some mates come next week on May 2nd:
“Redfall is an open-world, co-op FPS from Arkane Austin, the award-winning team behind Prey and Dishonored. Slay alone or squad up with up to 4 player co-op and face off against the vampires holding the island hostage.
Redfall brings the studio’s signature gameplay to this story-driven action shooter. In signature Arkane style, you will choose your path across the island and through the vampire masses as you discover what caused this plague of bloodsuckers.
Explore a beautifully hand-crafted open world packed with detail and shine a light on the island’s darkest corners as you fight to uncover the vampires’ secrets. Choose from a roster of heroes with unique, upgradeable skills and gear them up with customizable weaponry found all over the island.”
We recently had our hands on a good chunk of the game and came away fairly confident that it’ll be a solid bit of fun whether you’re playing solo or with friends, especially with the game launching into Xbox Game Pass on day one making it easier to ensure you’ve got mates to go vamp hunting with.
Redfall arrives exclusively on Xbox Series X|S and PC on May 2, 2023. Amazon has copies for $94 with free shipping, but the game will also be included with Game Pass subscriptions from day one.
