Code Vein - Dragon Lord - Jun 24th, 2018
Developer: Bandai Namco Games
Publisher: Bandai Namco Games
Platform: PlayStation 4, Steam, Xbox One
Release Date: TBA (2019)
Genre: Action RPG
In the not too distant future, a mysterious disaster has brought collapse to the world as we know it. Towering skyscrapers, once symbols of prosperity, are now lifeless graves of humanity’s past pierced by the Thorns of Judgment. At the center of the destruction lies a hidden society of Revenants called Vein. This final stronghold is where the remaining few fight to survive, blessed with Gifts of power in exchange for their memories and a thirst for blood. Give into the bloodlust fully and risk becoming one of the Lost, fiendish ghouls devoid of any remaining humanity.
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. Use your combined strength to coordinate your approach and defend each other from surprise attacks or overpowered enemies using your Blood Veil and various weapons. 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.

I got to play some of this at NYCC last year, and while I can't remember every detail I do remember walking away with little, if any, complaints about how the game played.
RE: Code Vein - Chloe - Jul 7th, 2018
Umm.. The only problem I have is that you seem to be sent down a huge hallway for a lot of the game. Yea, the gfx are nice, but if all your doing is being sent down one passage after another it could get boring after awhile. I hope that isn't the case, & is just how the trailer makes the game feel like that.

Code Vein delayed until 2019
It was announced today that Bandai Namco will be delaying Code Vein's release until 2019 for all regions. Bandai Namco have stated that the reason for this delay is to add additional time to development so they can be sure that the final product delivers on the expectations of the fans. Here's a quote from the Vice President of Marketing for Bandai Namco America:
"Code Vein has received an enormous amount of positive feedback from eager fans who have received hands-on time with in-development versions of the game over the past nine months. Armed with knowledge of how well the game has already been received, we made the decision to postpone the release of Code vein to further refine its gameplay in an effort to exceed the expectations fans already have of the title. It was a difficult decision to make, but we feel it is the correct one.”
Well, even though Code Vein was one of more more anticipated games of this year, I'm actually okay with this. September is a very packed month, and having one less game in it is a lot easier on both my wallet and myself. As much as I was looking forward to playing this, I can definitely survive the wait of a few additional months if it means getting an even better experience, and actually having the time to enjoy it.
RE: Code Vein | Delayed - Moonface - Jul 11th, 2018
Probably a good idea to delay it, since it's a new IP having to compete against a lot of other big titles in September and October where it could just get buried and not perform as well as it could. Not sure if it's still an issue now but I vaguely recall the visuals being iffy in places even on an aesthetic level.

Hopefully this postponing means that's an area they'll want to improve on, plus anything else.
Yeah, Code Vein is on my interest list for a reason, and that description is crying out to me, this can be a game for my library. I think this delay has actually increased my own chances of getting this on day 1. I wasn't feeling this year for the game, don't know why. I agree though, better to have this come out away from late 2018 or September/October time which sees a lot of new games.

RE: Code Vein | Demo on Sept. 3 - Dragon Lord - Aug 23rd, 2019
Already got a taste of the game when I played in the Beta, but I'm definitely going to jump back on. The game is insanely good and any little bit I can play it before it actually launches, the better.
RE: Code Vein | Demo on Sept. 3 - Karo - Aug 23rd, 2019
That trailer looks really good and I really like how our vampires can be our own characters! I'll definitely be downloading the demo and whenever I have enough money for a PSN plus sub I'll probably pick it up mainly because I think to enjoy it to the fullest I'll probably want to be able to go online and play!
RE: Code Vein | Demo on Sept. 3 - Mr EliteL - Aug 25th, 2019
Think I'll try out the demo for sure. Been interested for a while, but haven't been paying attention enough, so glad there'll be a demo before launch.
RE: Code Vein | Demo on Sept. 3 - Moonface - Aug 26th, 2019
I'll definitely be trying out the demo just out of curiosity. I have no idea whether I want this game at all or how much it'll appeal to me, so the demo will be a good chance to find out.
