The hunt begins as Bloodborne™ launches nationwide today, only on PS4™
SYDNEY, 25 March, 2015: Sony Computer Entertainment Australia (SCE Aust.) is today celebrating the arrival of the highly anticipated PlayStation®4 (PS4™) exclusive, Bloodborne™, developed by From Software, creators of the wildly acclaimed Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls games.
Directed by legendary Japanese video game director, Hidetaka Miyazaki, players take on the role of The Hunter on a journey along the dingy alleyways of the fictional, sprawling city of Yharnam. The 19th century setting is dark and foreboding, with strange cloaked beings and deformed figures lurching out of the darkness ready to attack at any moment.
On top of the bleak colour palette and shadowy city, something else is amiss. The city has been stricken by a plague, and those afflicted transform into hideous beasts, however citizens are unaware that they too have been affected.
Players must equip themselves with the appropriate weapons to defend themselves from the many unexpected forms of danger and help restore peace in Yharnam. From shotguns, transforming saw blades and axes, to nimble twin blades and even a steel sword that becomes the hilt of a massive block hammer, there’s a wide selection of weapons to find and choose from. Each weapon offers players a unique play style and strategy to leverage Bloodborne’s more pro-active combat style, light/heavy and short/long range combo system, and Regain System for earning back health during intense combat.
Exclusive to PlayStation 4, Bloodborne is available now in Australian stores and digitally on PlayStation® Store via PlayStation® Network (PSN).
