Latest Updates from Our Project:

Happy Vampire Holidays!
about 3 years ago – Tue, Dec 28, 2021 at 12:01:11 AM

Merry Vampire Holidays Hunters!


The whole team at Dark Gate Games hopes you all had a Merry Vampire Christmas and wishes you a happy new year! Enjoy your time off, celebrate with your friends and families if you can, and if you are far from home (these days not so uncommon) we hope you find a friend to keep you company.

Merry Vampire Christmas!

As you probably know, we are crowdfunding Ancient Blood on Gamefound.  Yesterday we revealed a new add-on that will allow owners of both games to mix and match Hunter, Vampires, and Elders in both games. Since this might be interesting for you too, we are also sharing the news here!

Ancient Blood is a prequel to The Order of Vampire Hunters set several centuries before the events of The Order of Vampire Hunters.

So, get ready for some Vampiric time traveling!

This upgrade pack contains ~130 cards that will allow you to play with all the miniatures from The Order of Vampire Hunters in Ancient Blood and vice versa, including those in all expansions, add ons, and stretch goals for both games!


How the upgrade works


For those who wish to travel back in time:


Playing OVH Hunters in Ancient Blood:

All Hunters from The Order of Vampire Hunters will have an additional poker size card with all the missing characteristics such as Attribute test values, Attack value, Defense value, and so on in order to play in Ancient Blood. You must combine the original ID card from the Order of Vampire Hunters with the new one to have all you need to start the hunt. Who will travel back in time to help Kurt, Giselle, and the others?

Playing OVH Vampires in Ancient Blood:

All Vampires from The Order of Vampire Hunters will get an ID Card to play in Ancient Blood.

Playing OVH Elders in Ancient Blood: 

Even the biggest Elders in The Order of Vampire Hunters were not as powerful in the period in which Ancient Blood is set. So, all Vampire Elders from OVH will be usable as mini-bosses in Ancient Blood. They will be much stronger than the regular vampires but not as strong as any of the Elder Vampires. And it gets worse: the mini-bosses will spawn during the Den exploration testing your survival skill!



For those who wish to travel forward in time:


Playing Ancient Blood Hunters in OVH:

All Hunters from Ancient Blood will get an ID Card and a Weapon card in order to be used in The Order of Vampire Hunters. Who will travel forward in time to join Joshua, Magenta, and all the others?

Playing Ancient Blood Vampires in OVH:

All Vampires and Creatures of Ancient Blood will have an ID Card to play in the Order of Vampire Hunters.

Playing Ancient Blood Elders in OVH:

All Elders and their Adepts from Ancient Blood will get cards to be used as Elders in The Order of Vampire Hunters.


SPECIAL OFFER

Since this Christmas felt like a Vampire Christmas for our backers in Ancient Blood, we want to give a special present to all Vampire Hunters backers:


All returning OVH backers will automatically be upgraded to an EARLY BIRD pledge! 

This means we will add a FREE Barkugus expansion ($25 on Gamefound) to your pledge when we open the pledge manager. 


SUPPORT ANCIENT BLOOD HERE


IMPORTANT: This gift applies only to backers who pledge during the crowdfunding campaign. It won't apply to late pledges.

Hunter Pledge - EARLY BIRD for all OVH returning backers!
Slayer Pledge - EARLY BIRD for all OVH returning backers!

Good Hunting!

Ancient Blood - a prequel to The Order of Vampire Hunters
over 3 years ago – Tue, Sep 14, 2021 at 11:40:57 PM

Hello Hunters,


it is time to travel back in time by several centuries, to an age of darkness and despair in which vampires were much more common than in the hunts you played so far. In Ancient Blood you will live the adventures of renowned hunters in a time in which vampires were not just stories to scare the children, but a very tangible threat in the daily lives of all people: for nobles and farmers, for the rich and the poor.


We are happy to introduce our next game:

Ancient Blood - The Order of Vampire Hunters

We think there is no better way to introduce Ancient Blood other than showing you the box cover!

Let’s face it. This cover tells a lot about this upcoming game. Just a glance at 4 experienced vampire hunters surrounded by Vampires at night during a full Moon pulls you directly into the action!


This announcement will raise plenty of questions, so let’s try to answer some of them!

What is Ancient Blood?

Ancient Blood is a prequel to The Order of Vampire Hunters. It features some game mechanics inspired by the old game but it is a new game. It is not compatible with the previous one, since Ancient Blood is a story-driven game in which your decision will influence how the game develops and the end of the story. The new game features exploration, crafting, resource management, and leveling up. This time your decision will change the story of the game, so be prepared to deal with the consequences of your choices.


Here is Brenoir, the support hunter included in the core box. He will help Kurt, Ellie, Giselle, and Otto in their quest to cleanse the corruption spread by the evil Elder vampires infesting the region. We like to think of him as a wiser, meaner version of Pete. ;)

Brenoir is a legend in the Order of Vampire Hunters. He is one of the oldest hunters still alive. Brenoir led the largest party of hunters in the history of the Order in a mission to destroy a nest that infested the sewers of the largest city in the region. He is the only survivor of that hunt and the only hunter in history who has seen Kranoss, the vampiric monster controlling that nest. It took him years to recover and since then he trained many hunters hoping for another chance to destroy the vampire who killed all his friends.


Do you want to take a sneak peek into the stories of the four hunters in Ancient Blood? Then join our dedicated FB group: HERE


Ok, this is a game about vampires. So far, we have shown only the hunters on our FB page, so it is time to tease you with one of the bloodthirsty horrors you are going to face.

This is a Vasha, one of the servants of the Elder vampires.

In Ancient Blood, vampires come in all forms and shapes. The Elder vampires infect and corrupt their preys, transforming them into twisted creatures to build hordes of lesser vampires, disposable servants to be sacrificed in their war against the Order.

Late Pledge and Replacement
almost 4 years ago – Tue, Feb 16, 2021 at 03:16:51 PM

Hello Hunters!

The first update of the year brings some good news for everyone.


Replacements

First of all, we finally managed to prepare the replacements for those few backers who

reported an issue with their rewards. Covid greatly slowed down the replacement process

but the last parcels will be shipped next week. Please, note that all replacements will ship

from our EU warehouse via registered mail. Delivery times are longer than usual due to the

impact of Covid on the regular mail.


We will send an email with the tracking number. If you are waiting for a replacement and

do not receive an email by the end of next week, contact us at


[email protected]


Late pledges on Backerkit


Thanks to a stock recount at all our warehouses, a few extra copies of the Kickstarter

exclusive stretch goals were made available. For this reason, we decided to open the online

store on Backerkit for a short time.

The online store is available here:

https://the-order-of-vampire-hunters-soundtrack.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

The store will be closed on March 31 st and this is probably the last occasion to get a missing

add-on or a late pledge for The Order of Vampire Hunters online. It is likely that any leftover

items will only be available at fairs or special events.


Instructions for placing an order via the pre-order Store on Backerkit

The BASIC SHIPPING FEE add-on is compulsory for all orders to get physical add-ons. Please,

add it to your order if you want non-digital add-ons. If you forget to add it, the BASIC

SHIPPING FEE will be added by our team to your order before charging your card and it will

increase the amount charged to your card.


All our remaining stock is divided between three warehouses. One US warehouse (North and

South American orders) and two EU warehouses (EU orders).


We advise you to only select items from the warehouse most appropriate for your shipping

address. If you order from the EU warehouse for a US shipping address or vice versa,

customs duties and taxes might be imposed by the relevant authorities on your order.


If you order from two different warehouses an extra charge between 16 and 30 euros might

be applicable to your order since we will have to process two different shipments. THE

ADDITIONAL SHIPPING FEE WILL BE ADDED TO YOUR ORDER AND AN EMAIL WILL BE SENT

TO YOU FOR CONFIRMATION BEFORE CHARGING YOUR CARD.


RoW backers are free to pick from either warehouse, but ordering items from two different

warehouses will result in higher shipping fees.

Calling all Crew!
about 4 years ago – Wed, Nov 11, 2020 at 10:00:35 AM

Once again, we need to get creative on how to lift the spirits of our Crew! And when it comes to lifting spirits...a nice bundle always gets the job done.

However, we want to make sure to give back to the backers who believe in this project enough to give up other games and choose Neo-Morphosis! So, instead of providing a bundle in the pledge manager, we are going to open a new pledge level!

This new pledge saves you $10 if you have selected a Hive pledge and it saves $15 if you are here with a $1 pledge and aim to get a late pledge later on. Is this tempting enough?

You can do a lot with those $10! You can get a set of the marble dice or another Ella Ridley. You can also get one XXXXX [DOCUMENT REDACTED BY THE SYNDICATE]!

Hello Hunters,

an amazing cross-promotion with your beloved Elder Brith is online now on Neo-Morphosi: Infestation.

He is 75mm tall, and he is ready to smash down the whole facility!
