I’m glad Ubisoft has decided to follow other games in releasing Halloween spin-offs for their games. It’s going to be interesting to see how Desmond became a vampire in Assassin’s Creed Dark. Wait, this is just a totally different guy who just happens to look exactly like Desmond? That’s one hell of a coincidence I suppose. Hopefully this means that vampires are going to make a comeback in games; as much as I love zombies, there’s something satisfying about staking a vampire.
DARK is a stealth action game with RPG elements that lets you slip into the role of the ultimate killer… a vampire. Stalk you enemies from the shadows then use powerful vampire abilities to attack and silently dispatch them! The exciting story of DARK immerses you in a world full of blood and darkness in which the hunter can become the hunted at any time. As you unravel the mystery behind the global conglomerate that seems omnipresent and all-powerful, continually improve your character by developing powerful skills to aid you in remaining unobserved, or make quick process of those unfortunate to take too keen an interest in you.
Features:
