Redfall is a first-person shooter video game developed by Arkane Austin and published by Bethesda Softworks. The game was released for Windows and Xbox Series X/S on May 2, 2023. The game received mixed to negative reviews, with criticism for its gameplay design, story, and technical problems.
Redfall is an open world first-person shooter video game that features both single-player and cooperative multiplayer modes. Players can choose among four playable characters - each with unique backgrounds and abilities - to fight against vampires as well as human enemies within the game. The playable area is split into 2 in-game maps; District 1 and District 2. A large component of Redfall's gameplay loop is weapon/gear looting and rarity. Players will be rewarded with better gear upon leveling up, exploring, and completing quest objectives.

We'll never get Prey 2, how sad

Can a game be dead if it wasn't alive to began with
Too soon man too soon😢
Fuck xbox for shutting down arcane studios
“You can pause the game” as a bulletpoint on release notes is hilarious.
welcome to live service games, where a pause option is an addition and not included
Online games haven't allowed pausing. It becoming an offline available game (probably so they can close servers) allows the game to pause.
@@chaosryansTHATS THE PROBLEM! WHY WAS IT ALWAYS ONLINE? Because live service games are one of many cancers on the gaming industry.
@@NihilNick yeah i don't buy games that are always online because half the time the servers start out like crap, or they lose service a ways into the future so it becomes useless
Hah 😂
Battlefield 2024 first made the giant leap for mankind by putting a scoreboard in the game after launch. Now arkane is revolutionizing the industry with a pause button.
What a time to be alive
Let's not forget Starfield adding town maps 8 months after release 😂

At this point you made more money on Redfall than the studio.
You made more money than Redfall, I made more money, most of the world made more money than this flop. Negative numbers are easy to beat with a 0.
And we got more enjoyment out of the coverage than we would if we played it.
It's pretty sad that this studio is just known for Redfall's failure now. A game that they didn't even wanna do but were forced to.
Microsoft is a cancer on the gaming industry
"Offline Mode" "Single Player Pausing"
It's fucking wild this is on an update and not a thing for the base game when it launched... holy shit.
i find it incredible how many stupid comments are repeating this know the game was a live service game. theres no pausing in a game made to be co-op
@@prohdusah WTF are you talking about? It being live service has nothing to do with not being able to pause *ON SINGLE PLAYER.*
@@prohdusah'Live service' doesn't mean 'multiplayer'. There are single player games out there which are live service.
Common sense would of saved you before posting that comment.
@@prohdusah Warframe begs to differ.
I remember when Wolfenstein: New Blood had to patch in functional pausing.
It's over not with a bang but with a whisper... Even if the game was bad it is a sad story
It's over with a whisper and with an error sound from the game crashing.
a sad story in a good or bad way
Good riddance, I say.
@@shock226 Both actually. It's a bad, sad story because it should've been a fully functioning game upon release but good cause its a flop and the corporations suffered because of the game being a mess. Gaming is the only industry you'll find people paying full price for a new product then making excuses cause its a complete mess before saying two years later "Hey stop complaining its good now....sorta"
@@velvetinedrapes4359
Redfall was rushed out by Microsoft. Hope that helps.
People just didn't understand Redfall. It was an ACTUAL battle royale. They started with 100 players, and we are down to the final 20. It was actually really before it's time.
Good one 😂😂😂😂😂
🤣
😂😂😂
I love how devs always go on and on about how critical the online requirement is to their game vision, how it can't be removed, then magically find a way to patch it in months later when they realize how that requirement does nothing but piss people off by forcing the 'no pausing' bit, and other unpopular decisions. As usual, it's too little, too late. The game still looks bland as hell, nothing about it sticks out or looks any different from the mass of other games that are doing the exact same thing, but better.
Arkane austin have said they would remove the online only requirement before release
what are you saying?it was removed cos this game failed
Ok so Luke is second among the 20 active players I have found so far. Let's see if yt recommends me the remaining 18.
Here's another one.
I mean it's currently at 79 on steam. Assuming half to a quarter of that for console. Maybe 100 total.
@@Grimjr7 It'll be more on consoles/game pass though
@@Grimjr7 now come on do you REALLY mean that?

Really annoys me when the higher ups make terrible decisions that cause a project or company to tank and the regular people who were just doing as they were ordered are the ones to be punished. Main reason I think lay offs should be illegal in cases of management negligence or Incompetence.
I do want a game about vampires in a neighborhood. Either as a person against the vampires or as the vampire. This setting could have been great but Arkane was a shell of its former self and left to fall apart.
This, I always disagreed with the idea people didnt 'want' this, the idea is great, the execution was terrible.
This was MS fault. They stopped funding mid production. Game pass js destroying games.
The idea of a vampire stalking you in a house bringing similar vibes like the Xenomorph stalking you in the ship is sublime.
@@squallthegrievernope buddy
The setting does look good. New England coastal town vibes. But its such a mess you gotta hope a company who can actually make a half decent game pick the setting
Redfall can't be over...
It never even started.
80 hrs before the first patch. only cults have to like the same thing
@@prohdusah
I have no idea what information that conveys.
@@honaleri I think they were trying to imply they played it for 80 hours before the first patch and people who didn't like it did not like it cause of group think and cultish behavior. I THINK thats what they were trying to imply.
@@velvetinedrapes4359
Thanks. I genuinely had no idea.
@@prohdusah So you played a game that was objectively awful and worse than every competitor on the market for 80 hours to prove to yourself it wasn't bad?

this makes me sad because i have been yearning for a badass gothic/spooky themed looter shooter 😭 it rly is a shame when a cool idea is wasted on mediocre execution
That's not even mediocre
Same.
The idea is solid
The execution was botched
@@magb8632 you’re right, i was trying to be nice 😂
I mean that's what arkane lyon is best at- single player worlds with unique aesthetics and solid mechanics. They excelled in what they knew- just some Microsoft exec forced then to do multi-player which was WAY out of their skill house
That's genius. Give a team a terrible project, make them fail it, then fire them n say "look I got rid of the dead weight, gimme a bonus" 👀
I guess Redfall didn’t see its downfall
Hahaha…..
Maybe because redfall, had nowhere to fall, from the beginning
🕶️ YEEEAAAHHHHH!!!
id say greedfall seeing microsoft shuttting down the studio 😂 but already taken.
Yeah. Good on Arcane for delivering the last patch. Before Redfall released, I was really excited about it. The idea of a shooter about a team of humans in their firehouse base trying to reclaim their village from vampires is still a great game concept.
It might have cracked into the 70s had the game been like this at launch. What a shame
I would agree that they deserve credit for pushing this update except for the fact that it's mostly stuff that should have been done ages ago. They put out a total pos game and after a year, their studio getting shut down and canceling the dlc they'd already sold to people, they managed to get the game to what most people would consider to be a minimum playable state for an online shooter. I know it's not totally Arkane's fault, but I wouldn't applaud them for finally getting the game up to where it should've been at launch on their way out the door.
That's what I was thinking. It's good that they didn't drop the game completely, but why did it take the death of the company to get it to a mostly functional state over a year after release?
@@ASpooneyBard If they hadn't been shut down, who knows how long it would've actually been before these fixes were implemented
I disagree. This was their last update before finally closing down and shutting the door behind them and they implemented features that should've been in the game from day 1. Not to mention the game crashed three times in this video. Twice in a row. It's simply not good enough. It sounds harsh but if you apply this level of incompetency to other places like construction, firefighters, heart surgeons people would be up in arms "We did well with the previous fire but this time the guy forgot to bring the ladder.....we'll remember next time though!" and quite honestly some people just aren't cut out for their desired profession. Thats life. Maybe they should make games as a hobby and look for a career elsewhere
Oh wow, single playing pausing. What a time to be alive
Bro, I just tried diablo 4 since its on gamepass. Not a fan of blizzard. But surely a base-game hack n slash for free will be alright. Nope. Fiddly account link that took 15 minutes. Then had to wait in a queue to log in. No camera movement. The dumbest settings you can imagine. Makes cutscenes freeze at random points til you hit A. No click A to advance dialogue, no. Its like a dvd skipping. The skill menu is garbage. Its like zooming a webpage in to max, then trying to scroll the screen in all 4 directions to read.
You are reminded on every login to make a new seasonal character and buy stuff.
You can't pause the game, so inventory checking is sketchy if you aren't in town.
Its... kinda... multiplayer? I've seen other players running around, messing up my attacks or pulling enemies towards me. There is no way to play it single player.
But the worst is the game its self.
It doesn't ever try to pretend its not a game. It tells you how things spawn, and what mechanics exist without lore or irony. Every event is fight mobs, fight miniboss, chest spawns.
No attempt is made for immersion or to connect the gameplay to the story.
It feels hollow and soulless.
You can see every gear in the machine of this game, and theres no magic or mystery.
Most games do a "use 10 realm crystals to unlock the godslayer sword!" type-thing. Diablo says "give us 20 bucks. Now. And you can have.... uh... i dunno, this armor thing. It looks cool, or something. Money. Now."
And you feel it in every moment of gameplay.
@@Volyrenwhat is blud yapping about 🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥
@@Deckfighters the.... the original post was sarcasm about not being able to pause. You _do_ know how conversations work, right?
@@Volyren i know that, the sarcasm is abundantly clear in their statement, however you just randomly started typing up a full blown essay on a completely different game as a comment on some guys sarcastic joke. are you trying to idk... start some kind of serious discussion under a sarcastic comment? time and place my friend.

It’s all over, but the crying…yeah, I’ve been listening to some Diamond City radio lately.
I actually laughed at this. Heard this song in the last 10 minutes myself in my survival play through of F4.
So, the game is a polished turd* now.
Pst... check your spelling...
@@TheHK_47 Thanks. Autocorrect can be a troll sometimes.
@@KaoruMzk no problem
On a positive note, Arcane Lyon that developed Dishonored 2 has escaped Microsoft's death grip, which means we may one day see a third installment of the game.
Also, if you learn that Microsoft is going to buy the company you work for, it's a good idea to start looking for other opportunities before it's too late.
That's what a ton of developers did when they made this game cause they knew it was gonna suck
We need a dishonored 3!!!
Personally, I think the vampire boyfriend summon thing is underrated. Is he the only vampire that actively fights against the vampires, or what?
2:08 why are the electric overhead wires as thick as the electricity poles holding them up? Jesus. What kind of people that never exited their apartment created this?
14:21 honestly the most creative “don’t forget to subscribe” I’ve ever seen 😂😂😂😂
I’ve just started the game after dropping it 30 minutes in at launch.
5 hours in and it’s a bunch of fun.
It’s Borderlands x Farcry with a cool creepy suburban vampire setting.
The game could’ve been great but I’m glad it’s at least good enough and I’m going to finish it in the next few weeks.
So it's now basically far cry with vampires. Ill play that for like 10$
I never really had any interest in Redfall but then I saw this update. I wanna try the single player pausing that they added. I am a sucker for bleeding edge technology.
It's so good!
Do it. I just got it today and I have been having a lot of fun. Never played launch but this is indeed a good game to play.
Good game to pause. Not to actually play
Redfall patch notes
"Added more frequent crashes for user engagement"
Clearly the developers are capable of creating a quality game so now more than ever I have a feeling the publisher was interfering and forcing them into
making a certain type of game including the online requirement. With all these fixes the game plays more like an Arkane game. I hope the developers
are able to continue to follow their passion somewhere they can be creative and develop the types of games they want and that they enjoy playing.
The crashing was so perfect. 😂
I like this dudes content. Ive nvr even played redfall nor have an xbox or pc but his videos r easy listens
Out of curiosity, if this is the last update, what happened to all the dlc characters. They just pull the plug in them. If so, how is there no class action or massive wave of refunds for the bite back edition.
You could say Redfall took a ..... fall.... I'll be here all night
I hope another publisher scoops this team up, buys them a new studio to work in, because they have the talent. They have never made a multiplayer game like this, and it's no surprise that it didn't work out. Prey was my jam and the hope for a Prey 2 is gone.
I think going forward Luke should unplug one random cable per video and test how the game behaves.
The funny part is that, after so much drama, this update made me interested in the game. Might buy it someday... Arkane was great. I mean... to me, Prey is legendary.
if anyone reading this feels burned by Redfall, i cannot recommend picking up Prey 2017. i put it off for years but last year i finally played it and loved it. its a shame Arkane Austin never got the chance to make a sequel.
heres hoping Arkane Lyon can still get the chance to cook
I wanted the actual Prey 2 where I play as a badass bounty hunter in space interacting with Tommy from the original game.
Tried it. Boring. Too tedious. Started a handgun build, and it wasn't fun
@@porkerpete7722 get good
*can recommend
@@porkerpete7722 Felt the same Bruv. Not sure why these guys are all praises.
Bethesda/Microsoft did like one of the finishers in Redfall and staked their own game... and studio too.
So what are the repiration rewards for those who pre-ordered the £120 Bite Back edition? *Raises hand in shame*
Unfortunately I havent seen any news covering that, which I think is illegal for a company to do...However, Im also not sure if that purchase only followed "Arkane Austin" or the greater Zenimax for legal liability as I didnt buy that...
I almost bought that physical upgrade steelbook pack... Almost.
It's an important lesson to learn
No shame, you had hope in something that seemed like it was gonna be fun
Hey wait... You mean I don't have to be signed into some server with an undisclosed expiry date to be able to play a game that I spend money on?
I might actually bother giving this a go now.
It's like 13 bucks for the game on IG, might give it a shot with one playthrough. Can't be worse than Suicide Squad Kills The Justice League.🤷
13 bucks is still too much. I'll wait for it to drop around 1 or 2 dollars.
Or better yet, not buy garbage games like Redfall *or* Suicide Squad and instead save your money, save your time, save yourself the headache, and I dunno, go get a burger or something. That would be a better value, that's for sure.
Probably not as bas as Suicide Squad but still a bad game. Honestly don't bother.
It is worst. The question is "Is it better than Gollum?"
It also costs time.
Redfall devs: this final patch will improve the game's stability
Redfall's final patch: 16:04
Yea this was what the game was supposed to come out as. It seems like it was supposed to be fallout esc but Microsoft wanted it's live service hit
this is so sad to me. Dishonored is my favourite game of all time. Arkane was forced to make a live-service looter when their strength is in stealth single-player (even just look at the great, critically acclaimed Prey 2017). The game unsurprisingly flopped and now the studio is being shut down. As a Dishonored fan, this is soul-crushing. I'm French and when I was in uni studying to be a sound designer, my dream was to get into Arkane Lyon, that's how much I love this studio and IP. I can only hope that Arkane Lyon will develop another Dishonored now that the Austin studio is closing. I fucking hate Microsoft, man.
Sucks but respect for putting offline mode 😢
One cool and important update that Everyone is missing Is that they added infinite ammo and it doesn't shut off achievements. You can find the option under the Accessibility tab
Red fall is actually good not going to lie I hope they keep it up for 3 years
14:19 _"I am alive. I am confident. I am badass."_
Wow, that is some cringey dialogue. That's right up there with the likes of Forspoken and the Saints Row reboot.
It really would take a lot of context to make that anything else. A sympathetic character trying to hype themselves up for a tough fight could work with that.
Forspoken gets way too much hate. The dialog ain't great, but the gameplay and combat is solid.
Luke "I tried XYZ after the big update" Stephens
At least it has offline now. Perhaps modders can make something of it.
I subscribed just for the silly little dancing carl trick. Well played sir.
Luke: "We're still gonna have those live-service mess games".
**Cough** (Concord) **Cough**
Concord looked interesting until they said it was a 5v5 FPS, and that completely killed all interest in it.
Did they add any characters people might want to play as?
Of course Phil Spencer once again does his best of "Don't ask for permission ask for forgiveness" mentality on game release causing another disappointing release from AAA gaming studios marked at $70 released as a disaster.
Is the pause feature part of the season pass ?
It's never been this over Refall-bro's.
did they remove denuvo drm?
i ask as that was a major issue with pc crashing and the whole kernal drm in a offline game
They didn’t learn anything. Turn and burn.
This is not a problem with the industry it's a problem with xbox, You tell them to keep making a game they didn't want to continue making then when it flops you fire them....🤯
I think Tango was even worse to shut because they made a proper game with almost no bugs and still got the axe when some other studios have recently done worse than them. I am happy I never got into the gaming industry like I wanted to when I was younger.
It's really cool to see this stuff available for those who did enjoy the game but at the core it still has a lot of problems.
That ending was PERFECT lmaooooooooo
this channel is weird because it covers topics only the hardcore "in the know" gamers would care about, but he also spends so much time re-explaining basic expositioin and opinions just about everyone knows at this point. Always has me coming in for a genuinely interesting topic, only to click out halfway because it feels like the video is running in place
Agree
Perhaps you may just not be his best audience then. I’m mostly a silent watcher, I like to have background videos going all the time but I do frequently watch Luke’s videos attentively and I’m not even a gamer of the games he talks about, yet I am almost always completely “in the know” because of him and I like that!!
I may not be a gamer in the middle of the conversations of what he talks about but because of Luke’s videos I always know what’s going on and for me the “running in place” of re-explaining exposition you describe is very much appreciated ~
I don't mind it actually because I'm ADHD as fuck which is probably why I gravitate towards his videos but I hear ya
I've noticed it with other channels who have a majority American audience, they have to repeat themselves 3 times for the viewer to either keep up, pay attention or understand in laymans terms.
Gotta get that ad revenue
16:03 Sins of the Father 👀 Solid Music Choice. 👍🏾🔥
Key to a good live service is having a iterative model instead of a waterfall model.
I will say this, i'm glad they implemented an offline mode and single player pause.
It's wild this update wasnt already in the game at release.
At this point…it’s the devs of Arkane Austin putting out their resumes
I love the dishonored series and prey. Sad to see them go.
So we're not getting a redfall 2? This was the best vampire game I've ever played. It pushed the boundaries of what a game should be, it was sooooo fun to play
*"the final stake in the coffin"*
I'm glad they allowed the team to add at least the online mode.
The developers a 100% added offline mode so that the game would be easier to crack and pirate lol
@LukeStephensTV You forgot to blur at 16:15
So it's in beta now. Nice.
Now both companies that have made games named Prey have been shut down because of corporate greed. Real sad neither of them will get further installments now
It’s over? Please it never started!
who remembers this quote from the horrible launch. [Game pass is for ever and red fall will always be on game pass for people to enjoy for years to come it will be updated regularly]. months later studio is closed and people didn't even get there first DLC. I knew this game was done a week after launch.
I did think for a second they could redeem it but then i realized the game is beyond restoring a player base to keep it going the super fans kept saying we are getting a update soon it took 4 months to get one small update and the game only got 3 updates and it didn't really change the gameplay any, it took a year and it only got 4 updates in that time, it received the last update when they got shut down they wasn't making any progress with this game.
The idea of a looter shooter vampire game is awesome they just wasn't the studio to pull it off.
Did they finally add a sprint animation?
This is kind of a sad video lol. Thank you Arcane for giving us Prey, such an underrated masterpiece.
9:17 The Day Before was shut down the Day After 😂
Ain't no way in hell am I giving anyone in any circumstances credit for following through on their promise.
The first game I think of when hearing Arkane will always and forever be Dishonored and prey
Why is it so hard to just make a fun co-op shooter? The last good co-op shooter I played must have been Borderlands 3.
The companies with the resources to make these games are not interested in making a game that's _fun_ to play.
They want games that are just barely enjoyable enough to get you drudging along to maximize retention time so that your user behaviour can be farmed and sold off to advertisers while the depressed people who play these games as if it's their second job will spend additional money on microtransactions in the hope that the pleasure of having those paid cosmetics will make the game more enjoyable.
Redfall being miserable is part of the scheme, it just so happened that this one fell through.
"You gotta give the team credit for sticking with it and seeing it to the very end they worked hard and delivered" *crashes twice in a row* rofl. Thats what we're here for 😂😂 love it.
This game on paper had so many ideas that had me excited and even gameplay itself was fun to me, but the coop was designed so clunky and I had no one to play with and I fell off quick.
Sad to see this death
Redfall actually has merch it's just a few hoodies though
Do you mean we won't get the next-generation 8k 120 fps with the new xbox update?
Lowkey your red fall, starfield and SS Squad videos are your Trainwreck series.
Is this really lowkey?
I'm one of the 10 people who kind of liked this game from the beginning. I never thought it was that bad, just not very good, mainly from a technical standpoint. Now I wish I had waited until this last update to play it.
Luke: it's pwaying pretty good now
Me: :O
I hope the ex-Arkane Austin staf finds good jobs with bosses that DO care about human lives.
How the hell was vampire boyfriend an actual idea real people had. This game was the first ai game ever as far as im concerned. 😑
It is pretty quirky, though.
This is the AI that made the first Will Smith spaghetti eating vid
That vault animation is crazy
Dishonored, Prey, even Deathloop was unique and worth the price tag even given it's flaws, I have no idea what happened for this to be such a flop, did all the people working on previous titles quit?
