Remember Bandai Namco's Souls-like anime-styled action RPG, Code Vein? Well, it's two years old today (it originally released on the 27th September, 2019), and it's managed to rack up 2 million copies shipped. Not bad, not bad at all.
Code Vein was met with mostly lukewarm reviews at launch, but it did prove to be quite popular among fans of action RPGs. We gave it a respectable 7/10 in our Code Vein PS4 review, and updates have since improved the experience. if you're interested, you can find the game going quite cheap online these days.
Are you a Code Vein fan? Did you buy it at launch? Keep an eye on your blood levels in the comments section below.

Code Vein is never 2 years old is it? That is terrifying. Where has the time gone!
It’s definitely a 7/10. One of the most 7/10 games I’ve played. I guess I semi-enjoyed my time with it but the mechanics just didn’t feel quite right.
I really like this game. Well deserved. Hoping a sequel.
Loved this game. I remember grinding for platinum with my buddy a year ago. Man grinding those 400 medals each for the final trophy was a pain in our asses.
Really enjoyed the game, can't believe its been 2 years already.
I enjoyed it. Hopefully we get 2nd game now
Code vein is a really good game.i enjoy it a lot.word up son
I haven’t found a physical copy cheap yet. GameStop ran a few sales but was always sold out. Been wanting to try it but if it’s Souls like, knowing me I won’t get far, and can’t justify it without a sale.
Bought it day one and really really enjoyed it.. For souls haters, it's much more accessible and a lot easier.. but still a good challenge.. I'd definitely pick up a sequel!
Really enjoyed this..bought it dirt cheap in a sale on the psn store and i was not expecting too much but i was really surprised and it kept me glued to my ps4 for a couple of weeks..has it had any kind of ps5 improvements?
I loved this game despite some of the lukewarm reviews. I played it on Xbox as I tend to prefer that controller with games that have a hack and slash element. Here's hoping for a sequel.
Great news for Bamco. I have the game on both PS4 and steam, and will be working toward the platinum sometime in the near future. I enjoyed the game and am hopeful of a sequel eventually. Fun souls like for those still unsure about it and like the souls genre.
I tried the demo and I found the combat to be trash. Felt like a knock off DMC with bad "souls" mechanics.
Shame that this sold better than the Surge 2, a far superior game.
This game has potential. I was skeptical when I heard this as another "Souls" clone but after playing the demo, I ended up liking it. It has some unique skill sets that makes it less of a Dark Souls clone and the boss fights are unique and challenging. There are some areas for improvement but overall, this was a game that I enjoyed from start to finish. Here's hoping for a better sequel. I'd give this game an 8/10.
Game was great, multiple endings, fun enemies and of course the overworld is post apocalyptic goodness. Great story and design.
Is there a sequel planned? I hope so , really enjoyed this game.
I still need to get around to playing the game, but hear good things.
I just bought it on sale the other day. I cannot beat the butterfly for the life of me. I'm not really good at this style of games but I'm trying.
Any tips? I use the Excalibur +3 but I can switch weapons if it makes it easier...
