That’s the central premise of Dracula: The Disciple, announced at Nacon Connect 2026, and making its debut sometime next year on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. It puts you in the shoes of Emile Valombres, a French archivist, who’s on the clock because of a deadly disease, and searching for a cure to his condition. This leads him to a visually resplendent take on Dracula’s castle.

It’s a first-person puzzle-solving adventure, so don’t expect any epic confrontations with vampires, but what’s on offer looks like it could be a lot of fun. As players make their way through the castle’s distinctly gothic design, they must try to uncover Dracula’s immense knowledge and secrets in the hope of stopping an abrupt end to their lifespan. How do the vampiric powers come into play?

The reveal trailer, showcased below, should give you some ideas and suffice it to say we’re going to be keeping an eye out for more news about it. Dracula: The Disciple is coming to PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
