It seems like everyone gets into the Halloween spirit this week, including game publishers. Yesterday Warner Bros. Interactive sent along some pumpkin-ized postcards from their next-gen game Dying Light. Today, Kalypso Media Digital announced that Blood Knights, a medieval vampire-themed hack-n-slash game, will make its debut on November 1.
Blood Knights will appear exclusively on Xbox Live Arcade for Xbox 360 for 12 days. Other formats will follow on November 13. The game will be priced at $14.99USD/£11.99/€14.90.
Set in a medieval fantasy world, Blood Knights features quick, deadly combat, smart teamwork and ferocious cooperative monster slaying. Blood Knights also has rich thematic environments throughout the game.
Blood Knights is a hack ‘n slash action – RPG, where the age-old war between humans and vampires is out-of-control and threatens to plunge the world into the abyss. The game combines spectacular combat with RPG elements in single-player or co-op mode. Blood Knights is developed by Deck 13 interactive, who have made a name for themselves with such titles as “Venetica,” “Jack Keane” and “Ankh.”
Set in a mystical version of the Middle Ages, Blood Knights is an exciting story about the Knights Templar and a legendary Vampire Hunter who finds himself bound by blood to the powerful vampire Alysa during a daring mission. The two must work together to break the blood spell and defeat the hordes of evil creatures who stand between them and their goal.
