Bloodborne Receives a Chilling Launch Trailer

For those of you not in the know Bloodborne is the next project from the director of Demon Souls and Dark Souls Hideteka Miyazaki and is something of a spiritual sequel to the souls series. The series is known for it’s brutal difficulty, indirect environmental storytelling and fantastic sense of exploration. All of those things are to remain intact in Bloodborne but some there are some major changes to the way the combat works to make the game much faster paced. Where as the souls games had slow, careful, methodical combat if you spend to much time carefully blocking and planning out you moves in Bloodborne you will be overwhelmed and killed very quickly. The games combat this time around focuses on quickly taking out enemies before they overrun you so while the basic mechanics and controls are the same as the souls series the combat has a very different feel.

With the game launching in a little over a week Sony saw fit to give their shiny new PS4 exclusive a horribly creepy launch trailer. The trailer features werewolves, demon transformations, strange husks of dead creatures and a solitary carriage housing a crying baby. Just when you thought this game couldn’t get any creepier.
