Vampyr “Become The Monster” Trailer Briefly Shows Off Combat Abilities

Focus Home Interactive and Dontnod have a new trailer out for their upcoming title Vampyr dubbed “Becoming the Monster.” The trailer gives gamers a look at what happens when you give way to the monster inside, which mixes in brief segments of gameplay.

Without wasting any time, the latest trailer of Vampyr has surfaced and can be seen right here. The two-minute long video trailer comes in by Focus Home Interactive.

If all of the above seems interesting to you, Focus Home Interactive also released an overview explaining what can be done in Vampyr.

For starters, the greatest source of XP and to learn more abilities comes from sucking the blood of London’s citizens. Blood from denizens offer a huge advantage, but the caveat is that Dr. Jonathan Reid has set out to save the people of London from the epidemic sweeping through the city after experiencing the tragedies of the war to end all wars.

The overview notes the question is less “Do I kill?” than “Who do I kill?” In other words, investigating citizens’ lives will allow you to make the most efficient move or you can simply give in to the lust for blood. Either way, killing certain citizens will have an impact on the local ecosystem in the game, and might even cause an entire district to collapse.

After draining the blood of your victims, Reid can learn and evolve abilities. In addition, close combat skills let you close gaps quickly and use deadly claws to decimate foes. Other abilities such as Bloodspear allow you to deal damage from a nice distance, while Abyss unleashes the shadows from within to deal with enemies, while Rage can make short work of an entire group.

Right now Vampyr is set to release this year on June 5th for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
