DontNod's blood-hungry action RPG isn't out until next year but here's a few new screens to get your fangs into in the meantime. Vampyr sees you controlling Dr Jonathan Reid, a brand new blooꦇdsucker in 1918 London who is battling the urges to kill as they're directly in conflict with his professional desire not to make people into Happy Meals on legs.
Understandably people need to die but who and how is your constant dilemma - your decisions influence the wor♚ld around you creating a murky moral quagmire. Kill a renowned London doctor foe example and the overall health of your own patients will drop.
Think the butterfly effect but with fangs and a sprinkling of Dishonored and you're there. This sounds like a fascinating pr🍸emise so far and I'm absurdly excited by the brooding screens. Spanish flu, vampires and a filthy 1918 London all had me💞 at hello. We'll hopefully see some gameplay at E3.
