🎙️ Voice Over Upgrade

  • All AI voice overs have been replaced with real voice actors’ recordings.

  • We worked with 11 different voice artists and rerecorded the full voice over set in a professional studio for a much higher-quality experience.

🧛 2 New Playable Characters

Two new Vampire Lords join the hunt, each offering a distinct playstyle and new build directions to explore.

Elowen

Found at the edge of death by the lost Lord himself, Elowen was a human child spared by a final, forbidden act of mercy. Turned into a vampire to survive the night, she was raised alongside Roderic, not as a subject, but as family. Where Roderic charges forward, she watches the shadows, reminding him of what was lost and what must not be forgotten

Edrath

Born of Master Goldrath’s bloodline, Edrath was born unable to walk, yet gifted with a mind that surpassed most vampires. Though physically fragile, his command of arcane knowledge and ancient vampiric lore is unrivaled. To Roderic, Edrath is more than an advisor or mage. He is a brother. Sharp tongued, honest, and fearless, Edrath believes true strength lies not in the body, but in will and understanding.
