Revealed in a demo announcement trailer

There's still over three weeks to go before Code Vein finally launches on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, but thankfully we won't have to wait that long to start the game. A new trailer confirms that a free demo is now available for download on consoles that lets you create and customize your vampire, explore one of the game's early areas pre-release, and gain access to the demo-exclusive version of the Depths dungeon.

The demo sounds vaguely similar to Code Vein's closed network test made available to a few lucky participants between May 30 and June 3, except the demo doesn't include any multiplayer content. Basically, you'll make your very own Remnant, experience the Ruined City Underground beginning area, and then play through the Depths dungeon until the boss. Notably, the demo version of the Depths dungeon isn't the same as the Depths dungeon from the full retail version.

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
