Code Vein Gets New Screenshots Showing Hot Springs and Prometheus Blood Code

Today Bandai Namco revealed a new batch of screenshots of the upcoming Souls-like action JRPG Code Vein.

Some of the screenshots feature the hot springs which, which can be found in our heroes’ home base.

While soaking and relaxing, the protagonist can reflect on past memories and on the meaning of some keywords.

By relaxing in the hot springs you can also recover half of the Haze you lost with your last death. Haze is basically the leveling currency used by the game, pretty much like Blood in Bloodborne or Souls in Dark Souls. It works essentially in the same way. That being said, the other half will be lost forever, so it’s still better to go recover it.

We also see the Prometheus blood code, which can be inherited from Luis. Attendee will be able to try it out at Tokyo Game Show.

It’s a balanced Blood Code with good attack and defense and strong parry and dodge characteristics. It grants the Phantom Assault and Burning Crash abilities.

You can check out all the screenshots below.
