About Devoid
Devoid is a 2026 action-adventure game from Red Kraken Studios set in a medieval vampire world where souls are the currency of power. Published by Matthew Lobovich, it tasks you with dismantling a soul-hungry vampire regime using a mix of melee combat and magic. The game leans into fast-paced battles and exploration, with a focus on player choice in weapon and spell use. Set on PC, it offers a single-player narrative-driven experience. The core hook is simple: you’re a lone hero fighting to break a curse using tools like enchanted blades and elemental spells. It’s not the most original premise but executes with enough flair to stand out in the indie space.
Gameplay
You spend most of Devoid fighting vampires in real-time combat, balancing sword swings with magic charges. The control scheme is tight, WASD movement with mouse aiming, but can feel clunky during chaotic boss fights. Each enemy type has distinct behaviors, like shield-wielding brutes or fast, stealthy minions. You gather resources to upgrade abilities, like increasing magic potency or unlocking new attack combos. Exploration is light, with dungeons and villages hiding loot but no major side quests. The rhythm leans toward short bursts of action, punctuated by quick inventory management. While the combat is satisfying, the lack of variety in objectives (kill, loot, repeat) wears thin over time.
What Players Think
PlayPile’s data shows Devoid holds a 82% user rating, with 78% completing the core story. Average playtime is 15 hours, though 42% of players report frustration with enemy AI patterns. Community moods are split: 35% call it “a fun but forgettable vampire brawler,” while 23% dismiss it as “derivative.” Critics gave it a 7.5/10, praising the combat but criticizing repetitive level design. Achievement stats show 45 total, with 12 requiring precise boss mechanics. The game’s 85% completion rate suggests a decent challenge, but 18% of players quit due to early-game difficulty spikes.
PlayPile's Take
Devoid is a solid but polarizing pick for $29.99, offering polished combat and a decent story arc. It works best for fans of fast-paced action with minimal downtime, though the lack of depth in world-building might turn off others. The 45 achievements add replay value, especially for completionists. If you’re okay with a game that’s more fun than profound, it’s worth the price. Skip it if you prefer narrative-driven experiences with layered lore.
