Layla was there when Redfall was pulled into darkness by the vampire scourge now consuming the island. And, when it all went down, she wasn’t alone. In the new character trailer above you can take a look at where Layla’s fight with the vampires began – and see how her ex-boyfriend got pulled into the mess too.
If you haven’t seen, Layla’s ultimate ability is summoning her vampire ex-boyfriend to help her destroy the enemies before her. As she says, their relationship is complicated. Here’s Layla’s kit:
- Power 1: Umbrella – Summon a psychic umbrella to block enemy and friendly projectiles.
- Power 2: Lift – Summon a psychic lift that launches you into the air.
- Ultimate Ability: Vampire Ex-Boyfriend – Call in a favor from your ex-boyfriend, Jason, who happens to be a vampire.
Layla’s powers allows her to participate in just about any role on the team. When I played Redfall during the single-player event in March, I found that Layla’s mobilty power, the Lift, was especially useful to get up high and sneak across rooftops to dodge engangements I might have had trouble with alone. Even though there is fall damage, high drops from Layla’s Lift didn’t result in any damage.
The developers at Arkane confirmed that each Redfall character has their own form of movement benefit, though it may not be obvious at first for two of them. More on those later as our Redfall IGN First continues throughout April. Until then, be sure to check out IGN’s Redfall single-player preview for more on what to expect from Arkane’s take on an open-world co-op shooter.
