　　Now Playing: Code Vein - Demo Announcement Trailer

　　A network test for Code Vein went live back in May. The test provided access to the game's opening chapter and multiplayer. In an intriguing change for Souls-like multiplayer experiences, Code Vein features entirely supportive cooperative play. We chatted with producer Keita Iizuka at a preview event about the other changes Code Vein makes to the Souls-like formula, including respec-ing your character with ease, grouping up with other players, and more.

　　Code Vein is publisher Bandai Namco's take on From Software's iconic Dark Souls formula with a very distinct anime twist. As a Revenant--a chosen undead--you'll battle against enemies called the Lost--husk-like remnants of Revenants--in a post-apocalyptic dystopia overrun with the scent of blood and the sight of death. The open-world action-RPG will land on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on September 27.
