The XBLIG: On paper at least, Vampire Hunter FPS (80 MSP) seems to have it all figured out, taking two contrasting styles of gameplay and setting them loose against each other in an arena setting. Instead of capitalizing on that promise, however, it’s an also-ran in the wave of first-person shooters on the service, with the distinction of taking the whole movement back a few steps with shoddy design choices.
"Since the launch of "Vampire Hunters" on October 30th, players have mowed down countless hordes of demons, vampires, and other supernatural foes on PC via Steam and Microsoft Store, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.
Now, it’s time to put everything you’ve learned to the test in the game as part of the new Weekly Challenge update! Every week, players can hop into the new weekly challenge and compete for the best possible score in specific levels using certain weapons, constellations, and game-changing mechanics." - Gamecraft Studios.
Review - Vampire Hunters successfully adapts the core elements of Vampire Survivors to a first-person perspective.
"The Belo Horizonte-based (Brazil) indie games developer Gamecraft Studios today announced with great joy and excitement that the full version (v1.0) of their roguelite survivors/FPS “Vampire Hunters“ (which more or less is a absurd combination of “Doom” and “Vampire Survivors”), is now available for PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
