War is Hell. NecroVision is a first-person shooter that takes gamers across the frantic battlegrounds of World War I and into a dark underworld of vampires, demons and dark magic.
Developed by The Farm 51 · Published by Fulqrum Publishing









In 1916, American soldier Simon Bukner joins the British army and is caught in a battle that leads him into dark trenches beneath the front. There he discovers supernatural forces emerging beneath the WWI battlefield.
This first-person shooter combines period firearms with melee attacks, kicks, and dual-wielded weapon combinations. As the campaign progresses, vampire weapons and magical abilities join the arsenal; chaining attacks builds adrenaline that can be spent on magic.
The campaign moves from war-torn trenches into vampire and demonic environments, with human soldiers, undead, vampires, and other creatures as enemies. Missions include secrets to find, and optional challenge stages can unlock weapons for use in the campaign; some sections put players in control of mechs or a dragon.
Players who enjoy NecroVision often praise its unusual mix of WWI warfare and supernatural enemies, along with its varied weapons and frantic combat that combines shooting with melee combos and magic. Some also like its dark atmosphere, distinctive creature designs, and wild vehicle sequences. These strengths are frequently weighed against complaints about clunky combat and other rough edges.
