Bandai Namco has shared new screenshots and information for their upcoming anime-souls, CODE VEIN.

CODE VEIN – Coming Next Year!

The new details reveals more about the Queen’s Knight boss, new weapon actions and the previously introduced Eva and Jack, either of which can partner up with players in CODE VEIN.

Queen’s Knight

This human type Lost is fully equipped with a spear, a shield, and two knives on his back. He can use single, double, sharp, and wide attacks, and when its energy goes down he can change phase and become more aggressive. All of these elements will make him tougher to beat and will prove the player’s skills.

Jack Rutherford & Eva Roux

Jack Rutherford (voiced by Junichi Suwabe) and Eva Roux (voiced by Saori Hayami) are two Revenants with a twisted past that will team up with the player during some special events despite belonging to the opposite faction. With the two characters in the party the battle style will dramatically change and become more aggressive.

Weapon Types

The game will support different weapons categories such as the One and Two-Hand Swords, Bayonet, Halberd, and Great Hammer. Every category features different Weapon Actions. They can be slower / faster, more / less damaging, long / short distant attacks, and have different side effects and animations depending on the player and the weapon used.
