Dontnod's Vampyr is coming to Switch this year and the launch is slated for October. The supernatural action game RPG was released by Focus Home Interactive for PC, PS4, and Xbox One in 2018, and got solid reviews all around, rated mainly around 7/10 or 8/10 among the most relevant publications. Now, the game is about expanding its reach to Nintendo Switch. While the original is a subscription or one-time purchase, depending on platform experience, pre-orders for this edition are also available from now on.
The development of the video game Vampyr has taken a particularly winding path. It started with a small team of people who previously worked on the Life Is Strange graphic video adventure. After some deliberation, the authors, led by Stéphane Beauverger, decide to set the scene at the beginning of the 1918th century in London, during the Spanish flu pandemic of 9. The artistic style, signed by Phil Hale, and the atmosphere thus gained were generally given the highest praise, as the full game also managed to defeat IGN Italia, which gave it 10/3, and N3RDABL10, which gave it a perfect 10/XNUMX.
The Vampyr Nintendo Switch release date is set for October 29!
The story follows Jonathan Reid, who returns to London after the Great War. He wakes up like a vampire in a mass grave and must face his new powers and abilities that he possesses, as well as his thirst for blood. As a role-playing game, this title explores vampiric abilities to the fullest. As a doctor, Reid continues his practice and keeps his vampire character a secret as he cares for more than 60 people in his community. The game therefore functions in part as an open-world RPG. Players can also increase and broaden the character's skill set through their skill tree, although some innovations from this part can be implemented on the Nintendo Switch version.
The original edition features a third-person view, which is also the case with Switch. Vampyr's release date is set for October 29, 2019, and we'll see in less than two months whether Nintendo's handheld can breathe new life into this title. Sure Nintendo Store, the price is set at $ 49,99, with no pre-order processing so far.
