Vampyr, the latest title from Life is Strange developer DONTNOD, has always looked promising, but we've not seen a great deal of the game's combat. In this new mood-setting trailer, entitled 'Becoming the Monster', we get to see some brief snippets of the action.
It looks like you'll be combining regular melee attacks with your vampiric abilities, like turning invisible, raising spikes from the ground, and finishing enemies off with a bite to the neck. It's reminiscent of Bloodborne, albeit with a supernatural twist.
What do you think of Vampyr's latest trailer? Chew on some garlic in the comments below.

Combat looks mediocre but then the game isn't a 'combat' focused game like Bloodborne was. Until I play it, I can't say whether its good enough to be serviceable and doesn't really bring down the game, the story, the decision making and impact of that.
I hope that we're not forced to feed on innocents. I'd like to play the game as the good vampyr and only suck the bad guys dry.
It doesn't look particularly great, does it? Still looking forward to the game, though.
The concept is still keeping this one alive for me (no pun intended), but yeah...combat kinda looks like a bad copy of Bloodborne. Interested but think I'll need to read the review first.
combat look okay.. it doesn't need copy same combat from Bloodborne. i hate Bloodborne after played it because it play like Dark Soul series. i hate it when i die by any enemies and lose items i found. dodge, dodge, attack, dodge, attack, dodge against bosses. ughhh god damn it
@get2sammyb it look okay, not bad, not great enough
@get2sammyb At the end of the day though, as long as combat is functional and doesn't detract from the game, that's enough. You don't buy Uncharted for the gunplay.
I have got 6 or 7 out of 10 vibes from this come from the start. I'm still interested but I doubt day one.
Reminds me of Murdered Soul Suspect, cool concept, meh game.
This is one of the games I am really looking forward too this year. I hope it doesn't ..... suck
what someone had to π
@Tasuki Likewise, me too....am sure itβll be a great game to get my teeth into, will be fangtastic π§ββοΈ
@SMKpaladin
You can finish the game without killing innocent people. (Will be rather hard)
The game has 4 endings btw.
Anyway i'm still getting this game. Combat might be average,but the Unique concept,historical setting and story already look to make up for that.
Score Will range from 6 to 7 but that's just a number. many good games have gotten average scores that should have been higher.
If it Will sell Well than the devs have completed their goal.
I thought it only looked ok. I'll have to see more gameplay, especially non-combat gameplay. So far, it's a pass.
I'll be buying this game after a price drop. Here in Canada, new AAA games are $80 which is quite a lot for the average gamer.
@Tasuki Stop it, lol.
mmmm not really grabbing me at all
This is going to bloody suck.
This game is going to be very mediocre. It's very obvious Bloodborne inspired. I can foresee a quick price drop on Steam, so I'll probably pick it up on PC at some point.
This game looks alright, but I'll probably wait for a $15-$20 bargain bin sale.
