Evil West is an action game playable solo or in co-op and set within a dark fantasy, weird wild west universe.

Evil never sleeps… but it bleeds.

A dark menace consumes the American frontier. As one of the last agents in a top-secret vampire-hunting institute, you are the final line between humanity and a deep-rooted terror that now emerges from the shadows. Rise up to become a Wild West Superhero, eradicate the vampire threat and save the United States!

Discover a cowboys-meet-historical-figures-meet-gothic-horror world of corrupted politics and covered-up vampire situations in which young gunslinger Jesse Rentier and his father’s vampire-hunting organization, the Rentier Institute, play a central part. Then plunge into the heat of the action as the Rentier Institute experiences a major crisis! Fight virulent hordes of bloodthirsty monsters in a burning building, unleashing your old-school rifle and cutting-edge Rentier Institute technology in an explosive mix of shooting and melee combat. The vampire menace hit hard, and it will be up to you to eradicate it!

In visceral, explosive combat, unleash hell with your firearms, lightning-fueled gauntlet and gadgets. Kill bloodthirsty monstrosities in style as a lone hunter or in co-op with a friend. Explore and fight in a narrative-driven campaign while upgrading your weapons and hunting tools. Unlock new perks to evolve your monster-slaying mastery, crafting your own playstyle to defeat the supernatural hordes.

Evil West invites you to take an introductory ride through its action-packed, narrative-driven experience in a new gameplay overview trailer.

Get to know Jesse Rentier, the skilled, young vampire slayer you’ll incarnate in Evil West. Star agent of the Rentier Institute, a secret monster-hunting organization led by his father and many generations of Rentier before him, he’ll have to take the action into his own hands after a deadly vampiric conspiracy emerges from the darkness and wipes out the Institute. With the help of Edgar Gravenor, another survivor from the Institute, he’ll have to battle fierce foes and demystify the conspiracy while rebuilding the organization and becoming the leader it needs.

To reach his goal, Jesse will explore every corner of the Wild West, looking for new Institute members and valuable leads on the conspiracy, taking money from abandoned chests and corpses, and growing his arsenal of weapons. Armed with both old-fashioned firearms and advanced technology like the lightning-fueled Rentier Gauntlet, each with its own skill tree for customized upgrades, you’re free to combine Jesse’s weapons and tools to your liking. Take on explosive combat encounters with your own mix of powerful ranged attacks and devastating melee combos.

Evil West is available to pre-order on all platforms.  All players pre-ordering the game digitally will receive the Wild Wild East Skin Pack, which is included in all physical versions of the game.
