I wasnt expecting this


Announcing Van Helsing: Final Cut
The title spoils the surprise, but before cutting to the chase, allow us to say a few words. We’d like to thank you all for your support and feedback over the last three years. The Van Helsing trilogy became big. Since its 2013 release, individual titles of the trilogy combined have sold over 1 million copies, and we can’t be anything less than grateful to our community and press reviews for any praise or criticism we have received – they were not taken lightly.

The trilogy, as we have discussed previously, was a really big project for a relatively small studio, and now we’re trying to deliver a refined, streamlined, definitive experience of all three games, combined in one big Action RPG title. It will be released as a standalone title on Steam, and it’s called

The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut

It merges campaign modes from all three games, takes away some of the redundant stuff, adds more exciting quests and creates an epic, long single player campaign. All the tower defense parts are in, all made optional now, but are highly rewarding nonetheless. The game will be playable from the beginning to the end as all six playable classes introduced in The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III.

This means that you can reach level 80 with your character playing through over 50 hours of gameplay, but you can evolve up to level 100 and beyond with a Glory system in various other game modes, including multiplayer (4-player co-op mode, touchdown, arena, or battle royal), scenarios, daily quests, challenges and weekly events.

The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut will be available in September 2015. It will be a standalone title on Steam, priced $44.99. But here’s the twist: anyone who owns all three games in the trilogy already, will get this epic game for free!

Now, before saying anything else, we’d like to thank you guys again, for the countless posts, blog comments, reviews, feedback on various media, because this is what made further developments possible.
Wait a minute.
Did you say "We"?
So, you are one of the dev of this cool game?
When are we expecting Van Helsing?
Ok, it sounds wrong.
Thank you for final cut of game.
And please release it here if possible on same day or asap. :)

I'm fairly certain he's just copy-pasted the announcement ;)
Oh, I suspected that. :P
Anyway, We have a date for release of AoVH: Final Cut.
It's September 23, 2015.

On Steam I'm assuming.
Is it any good?
I only played fifteen minutes or so of the first game, I only bought it for co-op really and nobody wanted to play it.
Sadly I haven't played it either but according to walk through videos it looks good for an indie game.
It reminded of of torchlight.
If developers provided right way what they have mentioned them final cut is worth buying.
At least it will be worth buying at discount. ;)
will it be available on gog?
Wow, I didn`t know that Van Helsing is a trilogy. I didn`t even watch the first movie!
I have the first two, but i haven't played either yet...

For $44.99 ? Are they out of their mind ?

Edit : How will the Gog servers and the Galaxy client handle a 28GB download sized game ? ( 50-60GB after the installation )

In their mind its a much better deal at that price because it includes all three games and the DLC. Excerpt from the FAQ:

"Also, if you add up the price of the trilogy with all the DLCs, it’s even be a better deal to chose Final Cut. It’s a convenient single installation of the whole trilogy and more."

Well if you are a Steam user you were able to purchase these :

The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Complete Pack ( Humble Jumbo Bundle 2 ) $1
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing II ( Humble Jumbo Bundle 4 ) $4.51
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III ( Steam ) $7.49

and you get the new version for free . But if you want to own the game on Gog : $44.99

Is it fair ?
I don't see how it could be a good idea to merge 3 relatively long games into one huge. Just imagined Witcher 1,2 & 3 as a single game, we are doomed :)

Justified question but bundle sale prices are only for a very limited time and that is excluding DLCs for the 2nd and 3rd game. The devs probably think they are doing a favor for the GOG customers by bringing the complete definite version of game here DRM Free. All of which is just speculation on my part because I can't really answer for them. :)
