Nighthawks from developer The Curiosity Engine and publisher Wadjet Eye Games looks really interesting and it's now set for release on September 22nd.
One for fans of wordy adventures - this sprawling RPG novel is set over two years of modern vampire life. More about it: "Six months ago, you died and were reborn. A vampire. A predator. Not a mere creature of the night, but one of its masters. At least, that's how things were supposed to be... You arrive in the one city willing to promise vampires a fresh start, only to find suspicion and paranoia waiting on its dark streets. But death could not hold you, and fear will not hold you back. When the sun sets, outcasts rise."
See the new trailer below:
