Today, Bandai Namco Entertainment America Inc. showed off the newest story trailer for its highly anticipated action RPG sequel, Code Vein 2.
Code Vein 2 takes players on an epic journey that features time travel, unique bosses, and a dynamic Partner System. You’ll take the role of a Revenant Hunter that is revived by a Revenant girl, Lou MagMell, using her own heart, who wields the power to travel through time.
Together, the two must embark on a mission to rewrite history and save the world, traveling across vast environments and recruiting companions to help prevent the cataclysmic event known as the Resurgence. Locations include flooded ruins of the Sunken City, the Undead Forest, the isolated MagMell Island, and more.
As the story unfolds, players will encounter the legendary heroes, like Josée Anjou, the “Queen of Solitude,” who once ruled a sanctuary swallowed by the sea, and Holly Asturias, a healer burdened by the title of “Reaper Witch.”
Gameplay-wise Code Vein 2 is pretty unique for an action RPG. Players will use blood drained from enemies to unlock a variety of powerful skills, build strategy for combat with Blood codes, and use unique weapons and equipment called Jails to overcome challenging foes and epic bosses. You’re also able to really make your protagonist your own, as the game features a deep customization system for the game’s protagonist, letting you adjust body type, hairstyle, facial expressions, accessories, makeup, and more.
Code Vein II is launching on January 30, 2026, and is available now for pre-orders on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam). For more information, be sure to check back to Simulation Daily for updates on this and other upcoming RPGs and Bandai Namco properties.
