The Crimson Hunt Key Features

Third-person survival horror

The Crimson Hunt puts combat in a third-person view, with weapons and tools for facing grotesque creatures. Encounters call for positioning and tactical choices.

The Crimson Hunt follows vampire hunter Victoria and Eleanor as they form an uneasy alliance. Their relationship and past are central to the character-driven narrative.

Explore a Victorian mansion

Search a secluded mansion and its decaying corridors, where traps and hostile creatures make exploration dangerous.

Environmental and mechanical puzzles

Scarce resources

Ammunition is limited, healing is scarce, and light is vital. Managing items carefully matters when deciding how to handle each encounter.

Local co-op
