Anime-like 'Code Vein' launches on Xbox One and PC

What you need to know

  • Code Vein is a Dark Souls-like game about vampires.
  • The title just launched on Xbox One and PC.
  • It was pushed back by a year to polish up the experience.
  • You can purchase it for $60 on Amazon.

We've been playing the game since yesterday and have to say that it's quite a lot of fun. Code Vein allows you to endlessly customize your character in terms of looks and playstyle. Curiously enough though, Bandai Namco claims that the game is Xbox One X Enhanced, but we can't seem to figure out what the added benefits are.

Unlike Dark Souls, there seems to be a focus on playing together. You frequently come across other people who join your team. This is a refreshing change because even boss fights don't feel so daunting when you're playing with friends.
