Code Vein[a] is an action role-playing game developed and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. It was released for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One on September 27, 2019. Code Vein received mixed reviews from critics, but sold over two million copies in two years.
Code Vein is an open world action role-playing game set in a post-apocalyptic dystopian environment and played from a third-person perspective.[5] Its gameplay was inspired by the Dark Souls series of games with animation inspired by God Eater 3, both Bandai Namco properties with Code Vein sharing the staff of the latter.[6][7][8]
Set in the near future, the world has fallen to a mysterious calamity known as the Great Collapse. In order to fight the monsters that began emerging around the world humanity created the Revenants: human corpses brought back to life by implanting a Biological Organ Regenerative (BOR) parasite within the heart, acting as vampiric fighters with unique abilities. Revenants can only die if their heart is destroyed, and require human blood as nourishment to keep themselves from entering a frenzy and mutating into the Lost - cannibalistic beings devoid of reason and control.
Over time the number of Lost increases to the point where they begin to collectively emit a deadly Miasma, that hastens a Revenant’s blood-thirst and chances of frenzy. Participating in an experiment to stabilize the Revenant population and stave off the Lost, a young girl named Cruz Silva volunteers to become the "Queen of the Revenants", though she later frenzies herself and goes on a murderous rampage. More Revenants are created to defeat the Queen in a mission dubbed Operation Queenslayer, led by Cruz's father Gregorio Silva.
Though they succeeded in killing Cruz, the Lost and the miasma remain, requiring Revenants to wear filtration masks to avoid turning Lost, and the Bloodsprings (plants that produce Blood Beads, which serve as an alternative to human blood) begin to dry up.
Planning started around 2014, with there being about 200 developers involved at one point.[9] The game was announced in April 2017 and was originally set to be released in September 2018, until being delayed until September 26, 2019.[10][11][12] The game's opening sequence was created by animation studio Ufotable.[13] In January 2020, the game's first downloadable content pack, Hellfire Knight, was released. The second, Frozen Empress, was released a month later.[14] The last DLC titled Lord of Thunder was released on March 25, 2020.[15]
Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu gave the game a good score of 32/40.[21] The game received "mixed or average reviews" for Windows and PlayStation 4, and "generally favorable reviews" for Xbox One according to review aggregator Metacritic.[16][17][18] Game Informer Daniel Tack gave a 6.5 stated: "Code Vein has some cool things to enjoy along the way and some nice ideas that shake up the core formula, but they are all incidental details. The heart of Code Vein remains overburdened by stale scenery, boring bosses, and tiresome trudging, and all of that is beyond what some nice touches can redeem."[22] While GameSpot stated, "Code Vein adopts the Soulslike formula in its structure, presenting a familiar cycle of progression and basic combat similarities, and there are some interesting ideas here, too, built around the use of various Blood Codes and their distinct Gifts."[24] Hardcore Gamer gave the game a 3.5/5 saying that the game is a serviceable Soulslike game that comes with its own flair. But at the same time, the story, combat, difficulty, visuals and world all suffer from a variety of issues.[26]
The PlayStation 4 version of Code Vein debuted at number two on the all format video games sales chart in Japan, selling 60,843 copies within its first week on sale.[30] The game sold over a million copies by February 2020,[31] with that figure increasing to over two million by September 2021.[32]
