As we’re all painfully aware of by now, 2025 has been a very busy year already, withtons of big announcements, reveals, showcases, and a whole lot more. Just like every year, it’s at its busiest this week, as Summer Game Fest (and all of the surrounding events) is here tobring even more news to the table.
Tonight’s show was, as you’d expect,quite a stacked one and full of new trailers and first looks at games. Although there were a few titles that we all predicted would show up or were confirmed beforehand, there were also some good surprises, including the reveal of a sequel to Code Vein.
Code Vein 2 Revealed At Summer Game Fest
Code Vein Is Back!
Bandai Namco had a number of reveals at Summer Game Fest, but one of its most surprising was that a sequel to Code Vein is in development. The reveal trailer showed the series' trademark mix of anime graphics and realism, but we also got a good look at how it’s going to play.
And yes, we’re getting Code Vein 2 before Bloodborne 2.
For those that don’t remember, Code Vein was an anime soulslike from Bandai Namco that released in 2019 to some decent reviews and sales. Although it didn’t quite light up the world like Bandai hoped, it seems to have done well enough to warrant a second go. It does look a big improvement, though, so consider us in.
