Bethesda confirms that Redfall release date arrives.
We recently learned that we'll be able to play Redfall in May courtesy of the Xbox Developer Direct showcase, which precedes an Starfield showcase for Bethesda's next mammoth space RPG. Meanwhile, a Redfall FAQ page on Bethesda's website covers lots of key information, and has been updated to include some additional details regarding the game's release and what you'll need to play it.
Among the details disclosed on the FAQ are that you'll require a Bethesda.net to play Redfall, will have to link your to Steam or your Xbox ID if playing through either of those platforms, and that "A persistent online connection is required for single-player and co-op." This last detail (spotted by Twitter DoesItPlay1) is likely to be the most disappointing for some fans, as it will impact those who have spotty connections and just want to play by themselves.
The requirement to be connected to the internet even when playing alone is pretty common in many games nowadays, but it can have impacts on the long-term preservation of games as well as simply being frustrating if you just want to get a bit of solo vampire hunting in while your internet's on the blink. Fellow co-op added a single-player mode down the line, so perhaps Bethesda and Arkane will do the same in the future.
Take a look at the co-op games on PC when it arrives.
