Marvel Blade

Marvel's Blade is an upcoming action-adventure game developed by Arkane Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. Based on the Marvel Comics character Blade, it will feature an original narrative that draws from the character's comic book mythology, while additionally deriving from various appearances in other media. The story follows superhuman vampire hunter Eric Brooks, known among his peers as "Blade", as he attempts to stave off a vampiric invasion in Paris while struggling with his origins among both the undead and the living.

The game follows Eric Brooks / Blade, a dhampir known as "The Daywalker" who has sworn his life to the complete eradication of vampires in memory of his mother, who died at the hands of one on the day of his birth.

The game's narrative takes him to a quarantine zone in the middle of Paris, France that has become overrun by a colony of fearsome vampires, who have taken to preying on the human survivors while seeking to entrench themselves to invade the rest of the city.
