Code Vein II Releasing in 2026

Bandai Namco has announced Code Vein II, a follow-up to 2019 action RPG Code Vein. Developed alongside Shift, the game is planned to release for PC, PlayStaion 5, and Xbox Series X|S in 2026.

Code Vein II is set in a post-apocalyptic world where humanity’s existence is hanging by a thread. The sudden emergence of a threat known as the Luna Rapacis, has seen Revenants — humans with supernatural abilities that comes at the cost of severe bloodlust — transformed into creatures called Horrors. Players control a Revenant Hunter, who is guided by a mysterious girl named Lou. She possesses the power to travel into the past and does so in order to try and rewrite the fate of the world.

The game’s story takes place across two different eras, while its combat sees players use blood drained from enemies to unlock various skills, create their own strategies using Blood Codes, and use weapons and equipment called Jails. Players also fight alongside partner allies and can form bonds with them.
