Code Vein II Mask of Idris DLC launches Sept 9

Get ready to plunge into a world where history is not just recorded—it is actively being rewritten. The anticipation is building for the arrival of the Mask of Idris DLC for Code Vein II, set to launch on September 9, 2026. This isn’t just an expansion; it’s a deep dive into a post-apocalyptic action RPG filled with blood-based abilities, fierce battles, and a history so fractured it threatens to consume reality itself.

The new content invites players into an entirely separate, history-altering story, taking them on a grand adventure alongside two unique new partners. Prepare to unlock powerful new weapons and Formae that will redefine how you fight the formidable new bosses lurking in the shadows.

The journey begins in The Forsaken World, a realm born from countless historical interventions. Here, scattered pockets of alternate space known as Temporal Rifts preserved the echoes of branching timelines created by the legendary hero Idris. As these rifts expanded, they coalesced into The Forsaken World, now dominated by the colossal Spindle of Pathos—a swirling vortex that greedily draws in the emotions of all time and space, threatening to consume everything the protagonists fight to protect.

To navigate this fractured reality, players will team up with two remarkable allies. First is Liv Voda, the alluring guardian of time and space. Having abandoned her duties for a time, she now joins the fight with an aggressive melee style, wielding the Halberd and mastering forms like Chariot Rave to overwhelm enemies with coordinated power.

Her Linkage Trait allows her attacks to stagger foes, which pairs perfectly with her support Formae, Mad Blood Dance, creating a devastating synergy with the protagonist. Alongside her is Lou Magmell, a lonely girl whose own past tragedy has thrust her into this new reality. Though her history is shrouded in mystery, she joins the heroes, determined to halt the expansion of the Forsaken World.

Beyond the characters, the Mask of Idris DLC introduces exciting new combat mechanics through a fresh arsenal of weapons and Formae. Players will gain access to abilities that drastically change the battlefield:

New Weapons and Formae

The Grave Knocker allows for powerful aerial attacks that create shockwaves, effectively controlling groups of enemies. Then there is the Sword of Karma: Idris, which summons a great sword imbued with the flames of Pathos. This Formae grants players extended combo options and devastating strikes, letting them unleash waves of Pathos energy in combat.

Whether you are a returning veteran or a newcomer, the Mask of Idris DLC promises a new adventure that transcends time and space. Prepare to journey into The Forsaken World, forge powerful alliances, and master new combat styles as you battle against destiny itself. The adventure awaits on September 9, 2026.
