Den franske utvikleren Dontnod Entertainment (Life is Strange) og utgiveren Focus Home Interactive benyttet torsdagen til å avsløre de første detaljene om det kommende rollespillet Vampyr. Det skal utspille seg i London under spanskesykens herjing i 1918, og som navnet antyder kan du vente deg en mørk vampyrhistorie. Dette skriver Dontnod selv i pressemeldingen:
"Following the First World War, Europe is crushed, with its remaining cities ravaged by a foreign influenza. It is spreading through London's alleyways and streets, diminishing her numbers daily. As her inhabitants shutter themselves attempting to avoid infection, only saints and fools remain outside. Those that remain lay as prey to a new predator, schooled in war and deadlier than influenza: the Vampires.
Unbeknownst to her inhabitants, they prowl among them, blending into the coughs and anguished cries of London's despoiled, post-War clean-up and restoration efforts. With a city once again under siege, it has never been easier to hide, but so too has there never been a better opportunity to come into the light!"
Vampyr slippes til PC, Playstation 4 og Xbox One i 2017, men vi by på en liten trailer og noen bilder allerede nå.
