Hungarian developer Neocore Games is currently hammering away at the third and final installment in the Van Helsing trilogy, and it has just released the first trailer showcasing two of the new classes that will join the fray.

The first two entries, The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing and The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing II, provided a solid action role-playing experience, delivering plenty of new and intriguing mechanics, as well as a healthy dose of humor to the steampunk and magic infused story.

The setting is loosely based on Bram Stoker's gothic horror novel "Dracula," but the developer has really added a lot of flair and personality to go alongside the spell slinging and sword slashing.

The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III is slated for release this May, designed to bring even more crazy action than its two predecessors, including a wider array of choice when it comes to the classes you can play as.

The studio has released a brand new gameplay trailer, providing an overview of the Protector and Elementalist classes.

The Elementalist harnesses the power of nature, unleashing immense damage from afar, on all those opposing him and his quest. The Protector is the exact opposite of the frail Elementalist, preferring to see the action from the front line, specializing in physical damage and damage mitigation.

You can see some of their signature moves in the video below, accompanied by a helpful commentary track.
