About CODE VEIN II
Code Vein II places players in a future where humans and Revenants coexist, but the sudden appearance of the Luna Rapacis has transformed Revenants into mindless monsters known as Horrors.

The game blends an epic, time-spanning narrative with intense combat. Players can drain blood from enemies to fuel skills, customize weapons and abilities through a new build system, fight alongside powerful partners, and explore a post-apocalyptic world while uncovering hidden histories.
