FromSoft, those wizards of game design, have conjured up a new masterpiece akin to the beloved Bloodborne, but with a twist that has left fans both intrigued and bewildered. This revelation, unveiled during a Nintendo Direct, introduces a multiplayer experience exclusive to the Nintendo Switch. Imagine, up to 8 players engaging in a PvPVE showdown, embodying vampires from different eras vying for supremacy in a game of "first blood." It's a departure from the traditional FromSoft formula, injecting a dose of unpredictability with boss encounters thrown into the mix.
The team at IGN finds themselves torn between excitement and skepticism as they delve into the intricacies of this new multiplayer venture. While the game exudes a familiar Bloodborne-esque vibe, it ventures into uncharted territory with its multiplayer focus. The prospect of strategic gameplay elements, such as sworn enemies and companions, adds a layer of complexity that promises an engaging experience for players. However, concerns linger about the game's longevity as a live service title, a realm fraught with pitfalls and uncertainties.
As the discussion unfolds, the team speculates on the game's development and publishing dynamics, pondering the potential involvement of Nintendo due to their close ties with Bandai Namco. The conversation takes a nostalgic turn as they reflect on Bloodborne's 10th anniversary, reminiscing about the game's unique mechanics that set it apart from its Souls-like counterparts. The absence of a block button in Bloodborne adds a distinct flavor to its gameplay, challenging players in new ways and sparking debates about its level of difficulty compared to other titles in the genre.
