Vampyr is a game about a doctor that turned into a vampire, struggling to live life with his new bloodthirst. The game came out last year and seemed to be a great commercial success.

Vampyr 1M+ copies sold milestone

Yesterday, the developer of Vampyr, Dontnod Entertainment made a huge announcement, saying more than a million copies were sold after the official release. Focus Home Interactive published Vampyr originally and they’re renewing the publishing deal with Dontnod Entertainment. Of course, we don’t get to know about the terms of renewal. However, according to Dontnod in a press release, it should be the most ambitious co-production in history for both parties.

About Dontnod Entertainment

Dontnod Entertainment was based in France and founded 11 years ago, in 2008. Their very first title was Remember Me in 2013, which had Capcom in the role of the publisher. The studio then created the series Life is Strange in collaboration with Square Enix, including The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit. Additionally, the developer is working on a new project, Twin Mirror and aiming for Bandai Namco as the publisher. Dontnod Entertainment is independent, that’s why they can choose a suitable publishing partner.
