The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing

You play as Van Helsing, son of the famed monster hunter, arriving in Borgovia, a gothic-noir land threatened by monsters and dangerous inventions. Lady Katarina, a ghost, accompanies you as you take on the hunt.

Explore wilderness, city districts, and other locations while completing main and side quests and fighting supernatural creatures and mechanical foes. Combat mixes melee weapons, firearms, and magic, with Katarina joining battles and offering support.

Level up Van Helsing and Katarina, distribute attributes, and develop skills to shape their roles. Loot and improve equipment, use rage to enhance abilities, and pursue alchemy and item crafting. You can also build a hideout, defend it against monster waves with traps, and play the monster hunt in co-op for up to four players.

Players who enjoy the game often highlight Borgovia's gothic, steampunk atmosphere and Lady Katarina's witty exchanges with Van Helsing. Reviews also praise the mix of weapons and skills, character progression, and varied settings; some especially enjoy playing the campaign in co-op. Opinions are mixed on combat balance and build flexibility, while repetitive battles and a drawn-out later stretch are recurring frustrations.
