Bandai Namco has confirmed the full release dates for Code Vein II at the pre-TGS 2025 State of Play. Japan will get the game on consoles (PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X) first on January 29, 2026. The PC version via Steam, as well as the global console release, will follow a day later on January 30.

The company also published more details about the game at a Japanese broadcast that premiered not long after State of Play. In Code Vein II, the player will create their own protagonist who will become a Revenant Hunter and go back 100 years to the past to resolve a phenomenon where Revenants in the Present era turn berserk and destroy the world.

The game's story will feature time travel and interactions between the undead Revenants and mortal Humans. The player can also return from the Past to the Present, but their actions in the Past will alter the Present era, which can also lead to a different story branch.

Just like the first Code Vein, the protagonist will be able to launch blood-draining attacks by using a new type of equipment called Jail. There will be a variety of Weapons, Jails, and Spells for players to build their own play styles. The Buddy system from the first game will also return, but now there will be two styles available: Summoning them to help physically or Inhibiting their powers for the protagonist's attacks.

The Japanese official website for Code Vein II also includes a character segment that lists the key characters, along with their respective Japanese voice actors:

Lou MagMell - Manaka Iwami
Valentin Voda - Yuichi Nakamura
Josee Anjou - Miyuki Sawashiro
Noah G. MagMell - Kenjiro Tsuda
Lyle McLeish - Atsushi Tamaru
Holly Asturias - Ami Koshimizu
Lavinia Voda - Ai Orikasa

Bandai Namco has also uploaded standalone versions of the Code Vein II release date trailer with separate Japanese and English voiceovers, and you can find both of them right below.
