‘Code Vein’ Network Testing Sign-up For PS4, Xbox One Now Available
Going along with our earlier hands-on preview of Bandai Namco’s upcoming Code Vein, the sign-up for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One network tests is now available.
After the delay from its original September 2018 release date, it’s good to see that the extra time was put to good use for the upcoming Action-RPG. Admittedly, the Dark Souls comparisons, coupled with the title’s anime influences, might limit its audience. Still, comparisons to its older influences didn’t hurt Sekiro.
Obviously, you’ll need to have a PlayStation Plus or Xbox Live Gold account in order to participate. As usual for these types of open testing, space is limited, so head on over to the official sign-up website and keep your fingers crossed.
Code Vein is due out later in 2019 for PS4, Xbox One and PC.

All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that actress Daveigh Chase has passed away at just 35 years old. The news was first reported by TMZ this afternoon.
The outlet reports, “The actress’ boyfriend, Roy Hernandez, tells TMZ … Daveigh died Tuesday from meningitis and an infection in her blood, which caused her to have septic issues and led to her body shutting down.” The website’s report continues, “We’re told Daveigh had been admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles earlier this month because of malnutrition.”
Here in the horror world, a young Daveigh Chase memorably played Samara in Gore Verbinski’s 2002 horror movie The Ring, the American remake of the Japanese horror hit.
Far outside the horror world, Daveigh Chase voiced Lilo in the 2002 animated movie Lilo & Stitch, a character she continued to voice in various animated spinoff projects.
Chase also appeared as Samantha Darko in the 2001 classic Donnie Darko, later returning to play the sister of Donnie Darko in the 2009 spinoff movie titled S. Darko.
Daveigh Chase’s resume also includes roles on the TV shows “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” “Charmed,” “ER,” “Touched by an Angel,” “CSI,” “Cold Case,” and 32 episodes of “Big Love.”
Chase appeared in the films The Rats, Silence, Carolina, Beethoven’s 5th, Yellow, Little Red Wagon, Transference, Killer Crush, Jack Goes Home, and American Romance.
We send our deepest condolences to Daveigh Chase’s family, friends, and fans.
