Code Vein Hellfire Knight DLC Now Available

Bandai Namco has released its first DLC pack for action RPG Code Vein. The Hellfire Knight DLC adds a new area called Fiery Oblivion, which includes new story elements and the Hellfire Knight boss, as well as new challenges called the Horror Hunting Trials that unlock new costumes, weapons, character creation items, and more.

Hellfire Knight is available to purchase for $9.99, and is also included as part of the $24.99 Season Pass. The Season Pass also grants access to two forthcoming DLC releases, which are set to launch in February and March of 2020.

Code Vein is currently available for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The game, from the same studio behind the God Eater series, is set in a world where a phenomenon called the Thorns of Judgment has laid waste to human civilisation. As a result of this phenomenon, surviving humans have gained supernatural abilities at the cost of severe bloodlust that can turn them into members of the mindless cannibalistic force wandering the world known as the Lost. Players control a customised Revenant and venture into interconnected dungeons surrounding the stronghold of Vein, teaming up with an AI partner or another player in online co-op.
