Code Vein 2 Launches with Anime Overload on January 29—Here's Your Time Zone

Code Vein 2 is about to drop like a blood-soaked anime banger—and yes, it's still technically Thursday in Tokyo when you start downloading.

The sequel to 2019's Code Vein arrives at 3 pm PST on January 29. Regional launch times vary: Los Angeles (3 pm PST), New York (6 pm EST), London (11 pm GMT), Berlin (12 am CET), Tokyo (8 am JST), and Sydney (8 am AEDT).

Players who purchase the deluxe edition gain three days of early access, while standard edition owners cannot preload the game.

"Alas, it doesn't look like it. The only way to get Code Vein 2 onto your hard drive ahead of its full launch is to buy the deluxe edition and get advanced access that way," the source confirms. The sequel introduces guns and motorbike mechanics to the action-RPG formula.
