"Life is Strange" developer Dontnod Entertainment and publisher Focus Home Interactive has an upcoming 1900s-themed action RPG called "Vampyr." As the name suggests, it's a dark and supernatural game that involves the protagonist being a vampire. It has been announced over a month ago and, now, a new cinematic trailer has been released.

Reports indicate that the new cinematic trailer of Dontnod Entertainment's "Vampyr" features the background story (that is, the tales and legends) of Dr. Jonathan Reid, the protagonist and mysterious figure of the game. During that period, the year 1918 to be exact, London has been stricken with the deadly epidemic, the Spanish Flu, which has left its streets and alleyways with the dead and the dying.

Dr. Reid, being an active participant in the Great War, finally returns home after being awaken with an even deadlier illness: vampirism. Of course, being man of science and medicine, the doctor tries to handle this with logic and tries to see this affliction as some sort of disease instead of falling into despair and madness. He would also have a more pressing task at hand as he returns home: tending to the epidemic that plagues his homeland.

With this concept at hand, "Vampyr" will be giving its players a choice between choosing the path of a doctor to help those in need (along with the Hippocratic Oath and such) or giving in more to the inner vampiric beast inside him, according to earlier reports. If players also decide to take the lives of people in the game, it will affect London's community and its safety. The effects will vary from shop closures to missing kin, and players can't avoid killing. But it's more of who they kill and the method of doing so.

Each citizen has their own personality, name, and back story - so there's that option of letting them be or ending their lives. It's really the players' choice of cleansing the streets of London or fighting the urge to become a monster.

"Vampyr" is slated for release sometime in 2017 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
