Redfall story trailer shows what’s at stake in the Game Pass shooter

Arkane and Bethesda just released a trailer that outlines the story of their collaborative, immersive sim. The game is due out on May 2, for PC and Xbox Series Series X/S. We’ve already seen some generous slices of Redfall’s gameplay at this point, showing us an open world plagued by vampires that’s designed to be explored with up to four other players. This new trailer provides a glimpse of some overarching story elements we can expect while exploring the titular town of Redfall, including an immortality-obsessed corporation called Aevum that’s responsible for leaving the tap to hell running and just not telling anyone.

Arkane’s previous titles have been primarily solo experiences that provide an engaging story and give you a real sense of place in the world through environmental storytelling. It will be fascinating to see how Arkane adapts the same experience for multiple players.

This trailer shows some really cool skill shots, and the way players can use their combined skills to perform slick maneuvers.
