Set in a gothic-noir universe resembling a fantastical 19th century Europe filled with monsters, magic, and weird technology, The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing will follow the son of the famed hunter, known in-game as Van Helsing, in a tale wrought with wry humor and snappy dialogue. Van Helsing, a larger-than-life
Hero possessing a dark yet romantic charm, will follow his path to the dismal land of Borgovia where former supernatural foes have enlisted his help to defeat a new scourge terrorizing the ravaged Eastern European city. With an assortment of extraordinary characters, an engrossing storyline, and a beautifully dark and gothic art style, The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing looks to bring RPG enthusiasts an anachronistic adventure like no other.
On 9 May 2012, the Hungarian
independent development studio NeocoreGames announced an entry of their new project,
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing. The title was developed for the
PC and the
Xbox 360's
Xbox Live Arcade platform. The developers also announced at
gamescom 2012 that the game is planned to be part of a
trilogy.
In October 2012, after receiving feedback from the gamer community that the depiction of the young Van Helsing appeared "too young and inexperienced", NeocoreGames held a vote to decide which of three possible versions of the main character would be used in the game: The Mysterious Stranger, The Chevalier, or The Veteran . Receiving 72% of the vote, The Mysterious Stranger depiction was chosen to be used for the young Van Helsing.
A remastered version including the sequels was released as one big game on 6 November 2015, titled
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut. On 1 December 2015, the game was released as part of the Games with Gold benefit, for the
