Press release:
Revealed today at Gamescom during the Find Your Next Game (FYNG) Showcase, Vaewolf is a bold hack and slash power fantasy that transforms players from a young elf survivor into an unstoppable supernatural predator. Play as the Vaewolf, a legendary hybrid of werewolf and vampire, harnessing devastating powers, awakening deadly new abilities, and hunting down the Viking clan responsible for the slaughter of your family.
Coming to Windows PC, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S in 2027, Vaewolf will also support Xbox Play Anywhere, allowing players to play across the Xbox ecosystem on console and PC at no extra cost.
Watch the announcement trailer for Vaewolf here:
Developed by BAFTA and EMMY Award shortlisted studio Milky Tea and published by Megabit, Vaewolf is built around relentless combat, fluid shapeshifting, and a ceaseless quest for revenge.
Become the Vaewolf
Harness the legendary powers of the Vaewolf and its deadly incarnations, each offering a unique approach to combat. Strike with ruthless precision using your elven bow, before unleashing the werewolf’s raw fury, or the vampire’s sinister dark magic to dominate the battlefield, utilising your powers of fluid shapeshifting.
The Untamed English North
Journey through a striking reimagining of the ancient English north and traverse hand-drawn environments of the Lake District; from the windswept mountains and lakes of Cumbria to the forbidding caverns and ruins of the Underground.
Vaewolf’s graphic novel-infused style utilises heavy shadows, clean lines and Norse themes to produce a stunning backdrop that feels familiar, yet stylishly unique.
Prepare to unleash your vengeance on Windows PC, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S when Vaewolf launches in 2027. Wishlist now.
