Microsoft and AQ Interactive and developer Artoon will deploy their intense action game Vampire Rain for Xbox 360 on July 3rd. Rated "M" for Mature, "Vampire Rain" will be unleashed to retailers on July 3 with the estimated retail price of $59.99.

Vampire Rain combines stealth, survival horror and tactical elements and allows players to lead a black ops unit to liberate humankind from one of the deadliest supernatural enemies ever encountered in a video game. Known as Nightwalkers, this highly evolved new breed of Vampire is intensely fast with super agility and they are converting humans to their kind at an alarming rate. Stay out of sight and navigate around the enemy, or engage and destroy them through stealth. Ultimately, the only sure way to eliminate the threat is to find and destroy the original Nightwalker - the enemy who spawned all others. Remain a human or become a Nightwalker as the battle rages online and take advantage of multiplayer modes such as Team Deathmatch or Capture the Flame, and continue the conflict over Xbox LIVE.
