Vampyr – Third Update Available

The latest content update for Focus Home Interactive and Dontnod Entertainment’s vampire-themed action-RPG Vampyr is here, offering a handful of miscellaneous fixes along with two new difficulty modes. One that makes the game easier and another one that makes it harder. This thread on the official Steam forums has some additional details, as well as the latest patch notes. Have a look:

We’re happy to release Vampyr’s third update introducing new difficulty modes. There’s never been a better time for players to sink their teeth in to the dark streets of London.

This update includes two new game difficulty modes which add further replayability for existing players, and more options for those who haven’t yet gotten to grips with this dark adventure through 1918 London.

Story Mode de-emphasizes combat, placing a greater focus on narrative so players can enjoy Dr. Jonathan Reid’s journey with less challenging gameplay. On the other end of the scale, Hard Mode makes combat much more difficult. Players will receive less experience from killing enemies too, forcing them to rely even more on embracing citizens to grow in power. Upon starting a new game, players will be given the option to choose from these two new modes or a third ‘Normal Mode’ if they wish to play the original Vampyr experience.

In addition to the new difficulty modes, the update introduces a host of optimization tweaks and fixes. Nvidia Ansel will also be made available for PC, which allows players to capture beautiful in-game screenshots, viewing and sharing them in 3D on mobile phone, PC or VR Headset. Find the patchnote below:
