Bandai Namco debuted the Ufotable-produced opening animation for Code Vein during its “Play Anime” panel at Anime Expo 2019.
Watch the Code Vein Opening Animation:
“Despite having worked on many top-class Ufotable character design, embodying the post-apocalypse X gothic ambiance befitting of Code Vein in its opening animation is something I do not shy away from,” Ufotable storyboard and episode director Suhara Takashi said in a press release. “Everyone on the team was extremely determined to create an art style for the animation which closely represents the actual game design. We will be elated if our dedication to character and background details within the animated world of Code Vein are well appreciated by many.”
The company also announced a Bandai Namco Store-exclusive “Revenant Bundle” edition of the game, which includes a copy of the game, metal case, Mia Karnstein figurine, digital soundtrack and digital art book.
