Old-world Materials | Code Vein Wiki

Old-world Materials
This item's value varies wildly depending on who holds it. It has the curious power to strengthen humanity for some, giving it extraordinary value for revenants. The technology to utilize them has been lost, and almost no one handles them anymore. Only a handful of people can still make use of them.

Old-world Materials is an Item in Code Vein. Items are used for a variety of purposes, such as consumable buffs, key items, and as upgrade materials. Items can be looted from Enemies and/or Bosses, chests, given by NPCs, and are sold by Merchants.
