The Gothic subtext of the series and references to classic horror are more closely related to genres that gamers may associate with vampires, and contrast these creatures with humans in a classic conflict. The dark fantasy adventure series “Legacy of Cain” revolves around various vampires, such as the protagonist of the first game, who is a recently resurrected vampire seeking revenge on his killers. However, the vast majority of vampires in video games tend to have a more traditional supernatural origin. Similarly, Vincent Valentine from Final Fantasy was not born with his vampire qualities, but acquired them after he became a test subject of Professor Hojo. The vamp from the Metal Gear franchise also gained some of his abilities and apparent immortality as a result of scientific experiments, although his addiction to blood was the result of a separate traumatic event. Redfall’s science-oriented vampires may seem unique, but it’s actually not the first game to use this approach. Like many vampire enemies in games, Redfall’s antagonists also have special abilities, are able to fly and drink the blood of their unfortunate victims. Some elements go back to familiar vampire lore and video game interpretations, such as the fact that Redfall vampires darken the sun and therefore act in the dark. This more modern interpretation puts the fall of the city and its subsequent flooding by vampires in the hands of a biotech startup - something that is not often associated with mythical monsters. Instead of a more traditional supernatural origin, Redfall’s vampires are the result of a failed scientific experiment. Redfall has never made a secret of its vampire orientation, and the origin of the deadly creatures is the main thing that distinguishes them from the images of similar characters in other video games. From the setting of a once idyllic island town to four playable characters with their own set of talents and personal quirks, Redfall revealed more and more in the months leading up to its release. Since it was first announced during the Bethesda E3 Showcase in 2021, Redfall has been gradually taking shape thanks to game clips and other details that its developer has published.
