Artoon's Naoto Oshima, one of the creative forces in the creation of the Sonic the Hedgehog series, is working directly on this title and promises a game that makes vampires scary once again. The game creates its atmosphere with gothic visual design and next-generation technology (including heavily featured weather and water effects for displaying a rain-soaked hell on Earth), while a new gameplay system introduces hidden horror as players must figure out who is a vampire in the crowded city. Artoon is also working network features into this title, including competitive multiplayer.

Looks like a Splinter Cell style sneak-em-up but instead of terrorists you're after bloodsuckers. Takes place primarily on dark stormy wet nights. The guys working on this are the same team that's making Blue Dragon. Seems derivative but let's hope they can at least restyle the gameplay and make it their own. Graphics look rather old, though.
