Redfall Content Roadmap Wishlist

Arkane Studios has outlined its plans to provide ongoing support and updates for its upcoming game, Redfall. As the information from the developers is pretty generic, I have added that BELOW my suggested content roadmap which would be great but also a licensing nightmare. I am looking forward to Arkane releasing something way better.

“We have plans for additional guns, costumes, monsters, characters, and more that we can’t talk about right now. But we have a strong year of updates, and it’s all either in the current game or it will be DLC. We try to do it as fairly as possible for people.”

Redfall Renaissance Park

One of the biggest draws to Redfall is the Redfall Renaissance Park, a medieval theme park filled with stores, shows, and rides. At its center, a small recreation of a medieval castle.

The Lincoln Caverns – Return of the Lost Boys

Being a port town on the ocean, Redfall enjoys various cave systems. The Lincoln Caverns are now home to a splinter group of ‘young’ vampires starting a new nest. With a strange obsession with children, these vampires have collected a large number of children that they intend to feed on over the coming days/weeks. Once you learn of these survivors, it’s up to you to challenge them and return the lost children.

Unlockable Location: New Aveum
Upon saving the survivors you find some turned vampires that are not evil. They are placed in a converted Aveum facility where they can live of animal and synthetic blood.

Unlock the following costumes:

• Remi – Rayna Cruz outfit
• Jacob – Edgar Frog outfit
• Devinder – Alan Frog outfit

MCC Lilith – Container Ship

Hidden within a large container ship, a new next has been discovered. Packed full of the undead and dangerous traps, you have to be on your toes when creeping around in the dark.

Unlock the following costumes:

• Remi – Jack Crow outfit
• Jacob – Robert Neville outfit
• Devinder – Dock Worker Boiler Suit
• Layla – Sea Captain

New Enemy Types:

Whilst each nest will have its own new kind of vampire, there will also be the following:

• The Turned: People who were fed on but not killed are now weak but erratic scavengers feeding off pets, rats and wildlife. When they see you, they are wicked fast.
• The Lost: People coming out of hiding are looking for a safe place to hide. Help them to unlock new missions.
• Telepaths: Vampires with telepathic abilities can make you see and hear things that aren’t there to lure you into traps. Find the telepath and silence them.

Hotfixes & Patches

The game will receive regular hotfixes and patch updates to address any issues and improve the overall experience.

Performance Mode

At launch, Redfall will only feature a Quality Mode on Xbox Series X|S. Unfortunately, Arkane Studios was unable to optimize the performance mode to meet their desired level of quality by the release date. As a result, Redfall will run at 30 frames per second instead of 60 frames per second. The Performance Mode will be added to Xbox Series X|S at a later date. If you are playing the game on a PC, this decision will not affect you.

Offline Mode

The Creative Director of the game has expressed interest in adding an Offline Mode to Redfall. While they are actively exploring this possibility, Harvey Smith has mentioned that no promises can be made at this time.

Additional Characters

The Bite Back Edition and Hero Pass of Redfall will introduce two additional playable characters. These new heroes will possess unique skills and offer distinct gameplay experiences. They will be released as post-launch content, although no specific date has been announced yet.

Live Service

Redfall is an Always-Online game. Although the developers have not mentioned any ongoing events or weekly hotfixes, Arkane Studios will utilize player data to make adjustments and improvements to the game.
