Bandai Namco's screenshots show a weapon called polearm bardiche found by player in a chest.
Then the upgrade menu seems to be done in a blacksmith shop. From the menu can be known some information that is the cost and material upgrades needed for the weapon. In addition there are also some attributes such as Attack and Defense and the weight and type of damage that the weapon can generate. For those of you who have ever played the Dark Souls series, of course this look looks familiar.
Furthermore there is also an upgrade view for armor. Similar to the weapon upgrade menu, in the armor upgrade menu it also shows the attributes and other information the armor has.
Although Code Vein has a theme that is almost similar to the Dark Souls series, but Bandai Namco game has its own characteristics. Such as Blood attributes and vampiric enhancement that the Dark Souls series lacks and the companion that can help your adventure as a vampire hunter.
Code Vein will be released on the PS4 platform, Xbox One and PC of course. There is no information related to the release date but it is certain to release 2018. So, let's wait together.
