After many years of working on stealth-based immersive sims, Arkane has decided to try something a little bit different with Redfall. As such, Redfall is an open-world, co-op focused shooter that's all about hunting vampires with a variety of wacky equipment and abilities. A pretty fun concept, all things considered!
As for what it all looks like in action, that you can check out through the freshly posted launch trailer below. Have a gander:
Unfortunately, this is where I have to bring in the bad news. While the concept sounds like it could be a great deal of fun, Redfall's implementation of it leaves a lot to be desired. Not only are there a variety of performance problems and glitches on PC, but the core gameplay is just a bit too unpolished and unfinished to be truly captivating. I can only imagine Redfall was pushed out of the door way too early, because this is far from the usual standard of quality I've come to expect from Arkane.
So unless you've got an extremely high tolerance for problems, I'd recommend staying away for the time being. After a couple of updates, and ideally a bit of a discount, then things might look a whole lot different. Or, Redfall could simply close down its doors and disappear for good like PlatinumGames' Babylon's Fall, in which case you'll save yourself a fair bit of money!
Whatever the future may bring, you can learn more about Redfall, as well as keep an eye on its updates moving forward, over at Steam. Enjoy!
