What do the vampires in Redfall look like? The vampires in Redfall are the result of failed scientific experiments. They possess special powers (the so-called psi abilities) and have their own hierarchy system.
The vampires are depicted as predatory-like monsters and must be defeated with increasingly complex strategies as they rise in rank.
What other enemies are there? In addition to the vampires, there are also their followers, the cultists. They have bases within the game world and are ready to shoot at the player if he is discovered.

What will the weapons look like? There will be many different weapons with various characteristics. Players can find and upgrade their equipment in the game world to create the perfect loadout.
The range will include military sniper rifles as well as special vampire weapons, such as stake throwers or a UV beam.
