Dontnod’s Upcoming RPG Vampyr Artwork and Setting Teased

December 3, 2015 by Ian Miles Cheong

Here’s a first look at Vampyr.

Dontnod, the developers behind the wonderful Life is Strange, are developing a new RPG called Vampyr.

The studio today unveiled new artworks for Vampyr, a game set during the peak of London's Spanish Flu outbreak in 1918. The disease laid waste to the city's once bustling population, which wouldn't return to nominal levels for many years.

Following the end of the First World War, Europe found itself at the brink of despair as disease ravaged the world, killing many millions of people. This is the period in which the game is set. 

As her inhabitants shutter themselves attempting to avoid infection, only saints and fools remain outside. Those that remain lay as prey to a new predator, schooled in war and deadlier than influenza: the Vampires. 

Unbeknownst to her inhabitants, they prowl among them, blending into the coughs and anguished cries of London's despoiled, post-War clean-up and restoration efforts. With a city once again under siege, it has never been easier to hide, but so too has there never been a better opportunity to come into the light! 

The game is due for release in 2017 across Xbox 360, PS4 and PC platforms.
