We got the word from Iizuka, the producer of the action RPG, Code Vein, on what we can expect from the upcoming network test. Here's the bulk of his message (along with some new pics and an informative video) and you can check out the whole thing in-depth, here. The Network Test for Code Vein will take place from May 31st to June 3rd.
"As we are hard at work on improving and polishing the game, we were not able to give our community any updates after the delay announcement. That is why it is my pleasure to reawaken the conversation about our game by giving out new information.
In this post I will be detailing the content that you will be able to experience during the Network Test (from May 31st 5am CEST to June 3rd 9am CEST) that was announced previously.
We also have a video detailing the content of the Network Test, so please be sure to also check it.
*Please note that the cut-scenes showcased in the gameplay video only represent a small portion of all the available scenes in the Network Test. Please play the Network Test yourself to have a more complete experience."
Experience the opening chapters of Code Vein
"In the Network Test, the game starts in the area called “Ruined City Underground”. In the first moments of the game, the player will be introduced to the story of CODE VEIN which they can enjoy the opening chapters of while exploring a breathtakingly rich world."
"When exploring the environment your partner character will be accompanying you. New weapon or Blood Veils can be found by exploring the environment so the Network Test gives a good idea of what can be expected from the final game."
"Until now we had mainly showcased gameplay that emphasized almost exclusively combat and action. Now for the first time we are proud to present gameplay that feature fully realized cutscenes intercut with exploration sections."
