DontNod’s new RPG Vampyr gets new E3 details

After Square Enix announced that Vampyr woud be debuted at E3 this week, official details were announced today from the show floor. Both Focus Home Interactive and DontNod are colloborating on the new RPG due out in 2017. Vampyr is set in early 20th century Britain as the country is gripped by the lethal Spanish flu and the streets of London are crippled by disease, violence and fear. In a disorganized and ghostly city, those foolish, desperate, or unlucky enough to walk the streets lay prey to Britain’s most elusive predators: the vampires. Emerging from the chaos, a tormented figure awakens. You are Jonathan E. Reid, a high-ranking military surgeon transformed into a vampire upon his return home from the frontline. Of course, as a Vampyr, you will need to feed on human blood which will unlock new powers for your character. Your decisions will also impact how your gameplay goes. Should you decide to hunt a certain target and succeed, they will be gone from the game forever and impact the direction the game will take. Vampyr implores a deep crafting system and unique, strategy oriented battle system. Should you attempt to use your vampire abilities in battle, you will gain a distinct advantage but doing so will also leave you weaker. In this sense, a kean sense of planning is required in order for you to succeed.

Arkham Knight Season Pass Gets you all retailer exclusive content

Warner Bros has taken to their forums in order to clarify some confusion for the season pass of Batman Arkham Knight. With so many pre-orders and retailer exclusive content and now the collector’s edition being cancelled, players had some questions on what exactly they were getting. For example, one location would give you the Red Hood content while another may give you the Harley Quinn dlc for pre-ordering. These had been mentioned as retailer exclusive and not available for individual purchase, meaning you wouldn’t be able to play the entire game without multiple pre-orders. Warner Bros has clarified that all of the content will be available to season pass owners once the exclusivity is up for their specific retailer in the August/September time period. “Throughout the 6 months of additional Batman: Arkham Knight content, Premium and Season Pass owners will receive all in-game content that is offered through various retail pre-order incentives. This includes the Harley Quinn and Red Hood Story Packs, as well as any Batmobile or Booster Pack that was available as early bonuses for pre-order of the game. For those who did not receive the content with their game, these items will become available when their respective exclusivity windows expire in August/September.   Arkham Knight launches this Tuesday, June 23rd
