Sony and developer From Software released a batch of new screenshots for the highly anticipated PlayStation 4 action/RPG, "Bloodborne." The images emphasize new stages, enemies, and weapons from the game, which launches exclusively on PS4 in March 2015.
The image above shows off a new character named Gyula, described as an "old veteran hunter who is said to possess amazing skill." No one has seen him in many years, and he looks like he's been on his own for some time. You'll encounter Gyula during "Bloodborne," producer Masaaki Yamagiwa said via IGN.
Another creepy element shown off (check out several of the screens below) is Cainhurst Castle, which is shrouded in mystery. "What happened to the family that ruled this castle for many generations? What secrets, and what dangers, await you there?" Yamagiwa teased.
From Software also highlights a new Bloodborne weapon, the transforming cane. In its standard form, the cane is well-suited for short range, melee attacks. However, it can also transform into a whip, which is deadly at greater distances, Yamagiwa said.
Finally, the first image below is from deep under the city of Yharnam, where there is a network of multi-leveled ruins that appear to be "crafted by something other than human hands."
From Software and Sony will discuss "Bloodborne" at length during next month's PlayStation Experience in Las Vegas. From Software previously teased that it had "exciting" news to share about the game in early December. I, for one, am looking forward to that news coming forth because this title looks hot with a captial "H."
