For their latest game, Dontnod Entertainment is moving away from the time manipulation of Life is Strange and tackling a creature for whom time springs eternal.

Vampyr is set in Victorian London and protagonist Jonathan Reid is at odds with his profession as a doctor and his newfound affliction as a vampire. The cinematic E3 trailer for the game finds Jonathan cursing the things he must do in order to survive and to avoid being hunted down like a dangerous animal. Watch below and see the bloody path of thirst and regret a night creature walks in Vampyr.

My Opinion:

Dontnods’ Vampyr is a shift in tone and experience from the episodic adventures of their last game. While I haven’t played Life is Strange yet, I’ve heard many positive things about it that make me curious to see how their next game develops.
