Bandai Namco has shared the opening animation for Code Vein at this year’s Anime Expo.
Featured above, the Ufotable-produced animation was shown off during their “Play Anime” panel at Anime Expo 2019.
Bandai Namco also announced a Bandai Namco Store-exclusive “Revenant Bundle” edition for the game. It includes: a copy of the game, a metal case, a Mia Karnstein figurine, the digital soundtrack, and a digital art book. Pre-orders are now live on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Here’s a rundown on the game:
In the face of certain death, we rise. Team up and embark on a journey to the ends of hell to unlock your past and escape your living nightmare in Code Vein. Death may feel permanent but your loadout doesn’t have to. Change your character class at any time, unlock the ability to mix and match skills, or choose different NPCs to partner with, all of which could make the difference between life and death.
Key Features:
- Unite to Survive – Featuring a story driven connected dungeon experience, dive into the world of Code Vein. Create your own character and choose your partner as you venture out into a world of destruction, overrun by the Lost. Change the feel of the game depending on which partner you choose, each with their own combat style and background story.
- Beneath the Veil – Experience the power of blood as you use unique Blood Veils to drain your enemies to enhance your abilities. Using “Gifts” powered by enemy blood, players can increase their strength, weaken enemies, and utilize new weapon abilities and overpowered attacks.
- Great Challenge Brings Greater Rewards – Take on the Lost as you explore the malefic world of Code Vein. Choose from a myriad of weapons such as bayonets, axes and spears, to accommodate your favorite battle style. Apply strategy in your attacks through partnered coordination and Blood Veil enhancements, ready to bring down the most threatening enemies.
