Redfall Announces Its Release Date and Shows That Xbox Is Bloodthirsty

The new vampire game from Arkane Studios (creators of Dishonored and Prey) announces its release date in a new gameplay trailer full of news.

Update:
Redfall Announces Its Release Date and Shows That Xbox Is Bloodthirsty

Bite by bite, Microsoft has been showing off its big releases for the first half of 2023 at the Xbox and Bethesda Developers Direct. And among them, Redfall is so crucial to the company's plans that it closed the event with a new and complete gameplay. Arkane Studios (the creators of the Dishonored saga and the reboot of Prey) have once again put our teeth on edge, and never better said, with their new vampiric proposal halfway between Left 4 Dead and Far Cry.

The trailer with which we leave you below has shown us some new features, such as the bases from which we start our missions (a fire station, for example) and the vampire nests with hordes of enemies and a breach to close (shooting a giant heart). But the best part came at the end when Arkane revealed that Redfall will be released on PC (Steam and Epic Games Store) and Xbox Series X|S on May 2nd. Oh, and of course, it will be available on Game Pass.

The Xbox sleeper hit for 2023?

Redfall is an open-world shooter that invites us to liberate the region of the same name from the hordes of vampires that have settled there. We can carry out a mission in solo and cooperative mode for 4 people. Arkane did not stop repeating that the online mode is only an option and promised that the proposal has little to do with Left 4 Dead. The studio assures that the story will never take a backseat, on the contrary, it is vital that as a lone wolf, Redfall will be perfectly enjoyable, reminiscent of Prey, Dishonored, and other works with their stamp. A seal that, by the way, is a guarantee of quality and explains why it is one of the most anticipated games of 2023.

In Redfall we will be able to choose between four different characters: Jacob Boyer (the one-eyed sniper), Remi de la Rosa (an engineer accompanied by a small robotic dog), Devinder Crousley (the Van Helsing of the group, a proven crypt robber) and Layla Ellison (a student with telekinetic powers, but also a lot of college debts). The mission is the same for everyone: take back Redfall Island from the vampires. The region will be completely open from the beginning and will be divided into two areas: the city, full of alleys and rooftops, and the rural area, where we will find country churches, abandoned lighthouses by the beach, forests and open environments even more dangerous than the asphalt jungle.

According to Arkane, this is their most ambitious project to date (big words), so stick your neck out and let Redfall take a bite out of you.
