Surprise addition of the Steam catalog, Renfield: BYOB is the video game adaptation of the film Renfieldled by Chris McKay (The Tomorrow War, lego batman) with Nicholas Hoult as the Vampire’s Servant, and Nicolas Cage as Dracula himself. Renfield endured an unenviable life there. Chief henchman of the Bloodletter Dracula, his mission is to murder everything that moves for the goodwill of his Master. A simple concept, ideal for a formula Roguelitebut with a strong air of déjà vu.
Renfield, poor bastard!
Impossible not to think about vampire survivors watching the launch trailer for Renfield: Bring Your Own Blood. Roguelite viewed from above, the game puts players in the shoes of Dracula’s minion as he progresses through New Orleans slaying enemies, gaining new abilities, attacks, and perks as the slaughter continues through the joy and good humor. If the context changes, the heart of the gameplay will be more or less the same as that of vampire survivorsto know “a single-player adventure that combines the simplicity of one-touch gameplay with frenetic action“. We couldn’t have found a better definition for the title of Poncle…
Renfield: BYOB is available in early access on Steam right now. As for the movie Renfieldit will be in all French cinemas on May 31, 2023 (and in cinemas across the Atlantic from April 14, 2023).
