[[caption-width-right:349:Take blood. Save a life.]]
''Vampyr'' is an upcoming ActionRPG developed by Creator/DontnodEntertainment and published by Creator/FocusHomeInteractive. It was originally slated to be available for PC, UsefulNotes/PlayStation4 and UsefulNotes/XboxOne in late 2017, but has since been [[ScheduleSlip delayed]] until the first quarter of 2018.
Jonathan E. Reid is a brilliant doctor who served during the war and became familiar with a brand new blood transfusion technique that's saved many lives. When the game begins, he's just returned from the war, waking up after an attack by a mysterious assailant. This attack was the cause of his transformation into a vampire. It seems that his status as a specialist of human blood is of interest to the vampire society that hides in the shadows.
Jonathan's thirst for blood compels him to kill. To do this successfully, the player must gather information about his targets, study and change their habits, collect clues, and maintain certain relationships by communicating with the inhabitants of London. If one so chooses, anyone in the game could be a target, which will have consequences that affect the story. Feeding on human blood will unlock new vampiric powers in addition to providing nourishment.
----
!!The game provides examples of:
* AuraVision: One of Jonathan's vampire powers. He can see someone's cardiovascular system, and can also determine whether they are sick or healthy, and if sick, with what diseases they're sick from. Convenient for a doctor.
* BeingGoodSucks: Not a pun, since the literal truth is the reverse. Early previews stating killing and drinking blood from other people is necessary to gain experience and power. It's been said to be possible, though very difficult, to complete the game on a PacifistRun, since you'll be as weak as possible.
* BlessedWithSuck: Being a vampire grants one many useful abilities, but the need and thirst for blood compel one to kill and feed on anyone nearby, including innocents. The game will explore the dualism of being a vampire; that in order to live forever, you must take the lives of others.
* BodyHorror: Skals - lesser vampires mutated by the Spanish Flu — are afflicted with hideous deformities, as seen in this [[https://twitter.com/VampyrGame/status/896015528355143681 concept art]].
* FantasticSlurs: The Guard of Priwen refers to vampires as "leeches".
* FlashStep: One of Jonathan's vampire abilities.
* FriendlyNeighbourhoodVampire: Possibly invoked, as the developer said that one can complete the game without killing a single NPC. However, this makes the game a bit more difficult, because you can't get new abilities without consuming blood.
* GreyAndGrayMorality: The developers desire to avoid any overt KarmaMeter to mark any given action as good or evil. All of the situations are designed to have at least a degree of ambiguity. There will be no moral judgment, but there will be consequences.
* ImprovisedWeapon: The combat allows the player to wield improvised weapons such as saws, which can be upgraded through a crafting system.
* ItemCrafting: Weapon improvement through crafting is made possible by looting items from bodies of victims and enemies.
* MustBeInvited: One of Jonathan's vampiric weaknesses is that he can only enter others' homes if he's invited.
* OurVampiresAreDifferent: The vampires so far are generally close to the gothic portrayal, but it seems they acquire more abilities upon consuming more blood. The game will also have different variants of vampires.
* PeoplePuppets: One of Jonathan's vampire powers. He can manipulate people in this manner, and it doubles as CompellingVoice.
* ThePlague: The game is set in London 1918, during the Spanish flu pandemic. The developers based the game on this period in order to inspire a GothicHorror mood.
* SwordAndGun: Jonathan uses a bonesaw in one hand and a firearm in the other.
