You could think of Redfall as a mix of Back 4 Blood multiplayer action with the powers and quirks of Deathloop, though it also looks like a game to be judged on its own merits as well. 

Redfall will see four players take on a mix of vampires in the seemingly quiet and titular town of Redfall. 

It'll be somewhat exclusive too, coming on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and Windows PC, as well as Xbox Game Pass on day one of its launch; sorry, PS5 fans. 

There's not a lot of solid information about Redfall thus far, despite it being slated for a 2022 release. While we expect to get plenty of fresh information in the coming months, for now, here’s everything we currently know about Redfall. 

Redfall release date 

Redfall has been dated for summer 2022 release. That would suggest the game will likely arrive at some point between June and September, assuming it doesn’t hit any development roadblocks and require a delay.  

Curiously, the name Redfall has been known for a while due to a trademark dispute in 2019. It was assumed at the time that Redfall was the subtitle for The Elder Scrolls 6, but it turns out it actually refers to Arkane’s new shooter. 

This would suggest the game is actually fairly far into its development cycle. Hopefully, that means that Arkane is pretty confident about hitting that summer 2022 release window. 

Redfall was announced via a 5-minute cinematic trailer. Unfortunately, there’s no game footage within the video, but it does do a good job of setting the mood and introducing Redfall’s snarky cast of characters.
