Arkane Studio's upcoming vampire shooter Redfall will let players slay the bloodsucking undead using both first-person shooting and careful stealth. The developer is most well-known for creating immersive RPGs like Prey and the Dishonored series, which all include stealth mechanics to some degree.

First announced back in June 2021, Redfall will take players to a titular Massachusetts town that has been overrun by monstrous vampires. Players will choose between four different characters, with each possessing their own skills and abilities that help them put their undead foes back in the ground.

Arkane Studios has assured fans that they can play Redfall solo or co-op, with multiplayer groups able to create a squad using any combination of the four protagonists.
