(SPOILER WARNING: The trailer content includes story details from the base game)
Before you can access this new chapter, certain play conditions must be met within the main game. For complete details on these requirements, please visit the official Bandai Namco channels. Once ready, prepare to transcend time and space as you uncover a history-altering story in The Forsaken World.
Entering The Forsaken World: A Realm of Echoes
Throughout Code Vein II, history has been repeatedly altered, creating scattered pockets of alternate realities known as Temporal Rifts. These spaces preserve residual traces of branching paths created by the great hero Idris. While intended to fade over time, these rifts have expanded, forming what is now known as The Forsaken World.
At its heart lies the Spindle of Pathos, a colossal force drawing in emotions from across time and space. Its growing influence threatens the world the protagonists are fighting to protect. This is where your journey begins – battling to save everything from impending doom.
As you venture into The Forsaken World, you’re joined by two new partners: the enigmatic Liv Voda and the familiar face of Lou Magmell, each with their own unique story to tell. Together, you’ll confront powerful new threats and uncover the mysteries hidden within this fractured realm.
Meet Your Allies: Liv Voda & Lou Magmell
Liv Voda – The Alluring Guardian of Time and Space:
Liv is the original guardian of The Temporal Rift, and half-sister of Valentin Voda. She had abandoned her duties out of boredom and been away from the frontier region for many years. With a combative personality, her hair and eyes glow brightly when her emotions run high.
Liv’s preferred combat style is aggressive attacks with a focus on melee combat. Her weapon of choice is the Halberd. She gracefully dances across the battlefield, relentlessly assailing enemies with continuous attacks from her Formae Chariot Rave and nimble evasive steps. Her Linkage Trait makes enemies more susceptible to staggering from weapon attacks. This trait, combined with her support Formae Mad Blood Dance (which boosts both her own and the protagonist’s attack power), forms a powerful synergy.
Lou Magmell – A Lonely Girl in The Forsaken World:
Lou is not the same Revenant girl encountered in the main story but a different individual who entered The Forsaken World after experiencing a separate tragedy. Her past will gradually unfold as the story progresses. Despite her own hardships, she joins the protagonists in their fight to halt the expansion of The Forsaken World.
New Arsenal: Weapons and Formae for Every Playstyle
To prepare players for the challenges ahead, the “Mask of Idris” DLC introduces a collection of new weapons that broaden your combat options. Whether you prefer swift strikes or devastating power, these additions provide new ways to customize your fighting style.
Grave Knocker: This martial arts Formae is compatible with all weapon types, allowing players to unleash a powerful aerial kick that creates shockwaves to stagger surrounding enemies. Upon landing, a second shockwave expands, making it an effective ability for controlling groups of enemies.
Sword of Karma: Idris: This Formae summons a great sword imbued with the flames of Pathos, allowing players to unleash a series of powerful strikes and extended combo options. With its long reach and devastating final blow that sends flames of Pathos forward, this Formae provides both offensive power and flexibility in combat.
Prepare to journey into The Forsaken World with the “Mask of Idris” DLC, featuring a new story, powerful allies, new weapons, and challenging battles. Whether you’re a returning player or discovering Code Vein II for the first time, experience this new adventure when the DLC launches on September 12th!
