Everything You Need to Know About CODE VEIN II
News
An exciting new adventure that expands and enriches the action RPG universe of CODE VEIN with a new story, new mechanics, new weapons, and new Partners.

Introduction
CODE VEIN II is a standalone follow-up to the original CODE VEIN, a game hailed as a much-needed departure from the typical story and aesthetic of action RPGs.
Now, CODE VEIN II is iterating that success by introducing a fresh storyline, innovative combat mechanics, and next-gen performance. Whether you’re a veteran Revenant or new to the series, here’s everything you need to know about CODE VEIN II.
What Is CODE VEIN II?
Welcome to the bleak future of humanity.
The known world is overrun with Horrors; humans and Revenants who were changed into mindless monsters by the Luna Rapacis.
Cities are abandoned, hollowed out by the chaos and destroyed by skirmishes between the survivors and the ravenous Horrors.
In the midst of this hopeless last stand of civilization, you’ll join forces with Lou, a mysterious Revenant girl with the power to manipulate time.
Together you’ll travel through the landscape of MagMell and beyond as you search for a way to prevent humanity’s collapse.
Explore a post-apocalyptic world, uncover secrets in the past and present, and combat the Luna Rapacis threat with new powers, weapons, and Partners.
Partner System Explained – Strengthen Your Bonds
The Partner System is a game-changer in CODE VEIN II, allowing you to share the essences of characters you meet and seal those essences in your golden Heart Core.
Partners can be summoned to fight beside you or share their powers directly when tucked into your heart.
This innovative system offers two dynamic modes:
· Summoning Mode: Call your Partner into battle for independent combat support and tactical maneuvers.
· Assimilation Mode: Merge your Partner into the Jail on your back to boost your stats.
Partners have unique personalities, stories, and Link Traits that influence gameplay.
Managing HP (Health Points) and LP (Link Points) adds a strategic layer, as LP depletion impacts your survivability.
And yet, Partners are more than tools of violence, their stories are vital to completing your quest. You can learn more about your Partners in the Character Gallery.

· Expanded Weapon Arsenal: Rune Blades, Dual Swords
