Nacon and Cyanide Announce Dracula: The Disciple, a First-Person 'Puzzlevania'

The project's timeline faces uncertainty due to insolvency filings tied to publisher Nacon.

Overview

  • Nacon and Cyanide unveiled the game during Thursday’s Nacon Connect, releasing a moody announcement trailer and a brief feature rundown.
  • The release is planned for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series with coverage pointing to a tentative 2027 window.
  • You play as Émile Valombres, a terminally ill archivist who gains vampiric powers that open new paths in what Cyanide calls a Puzzlevania.
  • Puzzle solving leans on hands-on actions such as inspecting objects, mixing alchemical substances, growing plants, and hand-drawing occult rituals.
  • Industry reporting highlights insolvency filings involving Nacon and Cyanide, raising the risk of delays, team changes, or cancellation.
