Party for Introverts and Akupara Games have announced that Cabernet, a dark narrative-driven RPG, is set to launch on February 20 for PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox. Set in a 19th-century Eastern European-inspired world, Cabernet follows Liza, a newly-turned vampire struggling between her humanity and her insatiable hunger.
A new playable demo is available on Steam to celebrate the upcoming release, with progress carrying over to the full game. Preorders are also open now across all platforms.
Watch the official trailer and play the demo now.
A Story of Blood, Power, and Morality
Vampirism isn’t just a curse of the body—it’s a transformation of the mind. In Cabernet, players will navigate a world of political intrigue, class conflict, and supernatural decadence, deciding whether to resist their bloodlust or surrender to the darkness.
Every decision shapes Liza’s fate—from how she hunts her prey to the alliances she forges in vampiric high society. Will she manipulate, seduce, or outright dominate those around her? The choice is yours.
Key Features of Cabernet
- Feast or Restrain – Plan your next hunt carefully, choosing your victims from desperate coachmen, failing marriages, and charming scoundrels. Their lives are yours to aid or devour.
- A Battle for the Soul – Will you hold onto your empathetic humanity, or succumb to the nihilistic abyss? Your decisions shape Liza’s evolving morality.
- Navigate a World of Power & Corruption – Mingle among vampires and the humans who sustain them. Who will become an ally, and who is merely a meal?
- Knowledge is Power – In a world where the cunning prey on the weak, your skills in art, literature, history, and science will be your greatest weapons.
- Fully Voiced Cast – Featuring Brian David Gilbert (YouTube, Dropout) and Samantha Béart (Karlach in Baldur’s Gate III), Cabernet brings its dark world to life with an all-star voice cast.
