Welcome to the dark world of Van Helsing: The Lightmaker, where steampunk technology and mythical creatures come together in one epic adventure!
Take on the role of legendary monster hunter Abraham Van Helsing and his associates, whose mission in this thrilling first-person perspective action game will be to thwart the plan of a mysterious monstrous leader to invade a peaceful land.
Immerse yourself in the breathtaking steampunk world of Dawnlight, where the once vibrant lands surrounding a dormant volcano have become a hotbed of evil and destruction, all because of a mysterious, villainous power. Its dark influence awakens the fiery mountain, condemning the unsuspecting inhabitants of Dawnlight to a supernatural cataclysm. The ever-present ash now obscures the sun, enveloping the land in eternal twilight, allowing vampires, werewolves and other enemies of day to roam freely and terrorize Dawnlight's defenseless people. Your task is to stop this dark invasion and restore balance to a desolate world.
The tale of Van Helsing: The Lightmaker is full of secrets and surprises. Join its hero in a story where as he fights the monstrous horde, he also struggles with the disappearance of his wife, Elizabeth. But there's no telling if the catastrophic influx of supernatural creatures has anything to do with it. The disaster may be an important clue in Van Helsing's quest to save his beloved.
In this epic journey, Van Helsing will not be left alone. He will receive much needed support from his faithful mechanical assistant, a marvel of technology that will accompany him on his most dangerous expeditions. Its skills and technological gadgets will be crucial when confronting enemies and solving complex puzzles. But that's not all! In the game's co-op mode, Van Helsing will be able to rally his faithful assistants to his side in a team of four and tackle the deadly threats and confounding puzzles of an invaded Dawnlight side-by-side!
In Van Helsing: The Lightmaker you not only fight monsters, but also develop a special laboratory base. Use parts found in the darkness-shrouded world of Dawnlight to create unique and advanced steampunk weapons, ammunition and gadgets. Van Helsing's skills in constructing and upgrading equipment will allow him to survive the perilous adventure.
