A Vampire Survival Experience

Awaken as a weakened vampire after centuries of slumber. Hunt for blood to regain your strength while hiding from the scorching sun to survive.

Make allies or enemies online or play solo locally, fend off holy soldiers, and wage war in a world of conflict.

Will you become the next Dracula?
