About

Bloodborne (2015) is FromSoftware’s gothic action RPG for PlayStation 4. A hunter arrives in Yharnam seeking its famous blood ministration, and wakes into a night of the hunt: the townsfolk are turning into beasts, and the truth behind the city’s church is worse.

It rewards aggression: trick weapons that transform mid-combo, a gun for parrying, and health you can win back by striking back. Underneath the Victorian horror waits something cosmic.
