Redfall is an open world first-person shooter video game that features both single-player and cooperative multiplayer modes.

Trapped inside Redfall, players must choose among four unique survivors — fame-seeking cryptozoologist inventor Devinder Crousley, telekinetic student Layla Ellison, combat engineer Remi de la Rosa, and former US military special forces sniper veteran turned supernatural private military company operator of Bellwether Security Jacob Boyer — and slay their enemies: vampires and human collaborators/cultists alike.

The vampire hunters return to the town and liberate the local fire station, turning it into their headquarters and a safe haven for survivors.

They learn that vampires were created by Dr. Peter Addison, a scientist working at Aevum Therapeutics, a scientific research group which has a lab on the island.

The vampire hunters hear a distress call from the Redfall Maritime Center and head over to liberate it, making it their second survivor haven.

They investigate a Bellwether Security outpost and discover Bloody Tom and Miss Whisper's identities as Thomas Kildere and Alice Young, also former Aevum researchers.

With the death of Bloody Tom and Miss Whisper, there is one remaining vampire god, the Black Sun, who is responsible for the eclipse over Redfall.

Bloodbag Chuck reveals that the Black Sun is his sister Claire, and sends the vampire hunters into his own psychic realm to find the clues needed to destroy her.

Inside, they find out that Charles and Claire obtained a girl they called the Gateway from billionaire investor Elias Kurz, whose unique healing blood they used for experiments.

Plagued with bland missions, boneheaded enemies, and repeated technical problems, Redfall simply wasn't ready for daylight.
