What you need to know
If you grew up reading Dragonology books and dreaming of finding Yetis, Devinder Crousley might resonate with you.
Bethesda and Arkane have shared the fourth (and seemingly final, at least for now) hero trailer forRedfall, showing off everything that “Dev” has to offer. As a cryptid hunter, he came to Redfall for a book tour, and now he’s using his knowledge of all things strange to fight back against the vampiric horde infesting the town.As shared byIGN, Devinder has a couple of abilities that make him perfect for fighting vampires. He can throw a javelin that electrifies nearby enemies, throw a beacon that can be teleported to for instant transportation, and finally, he has a powerful UV beam weapon which instantly stops any vampires in their tracks.

Devinder is the fourth and final character playable in Redfall at launch, though two more characters are coming sometime after the game’s launch, both of which are included inRedfall: Bite Back Edition, which is available for preorder.
Redfall is currently scheduled to launch on May 2, 2023, exclusively on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Windows PC. Like all Xbox first-party games, it’ll also be available day one inXbox Game Pass.
Windows Central’s take
All of the cast in Redfall are compelling, but I’m still torn between Jacob and Devinder for my first playthrough. Jacob seems more suited to my stealth-and-sniper playstyle for Arkane games, but man, Dev’s powers arereallycool.
Update: OurRedfallhas gone live. While the campaign contains moments of fun gunplay and compelling storytelling, Redfall has too many technical issues and gameplay flaws which hold it back from being truly great.
Redfall
Redfall is coming, and you can pick from one of four characters at launch. Devinder is a bit eccentric, but that’s perfect for coming up with tech that can kill the vampires now infesting the town of Redfall.
