BloodRayne's Back!


BloodRayne, an upcoming hack and slash adventure game will be making its way onto the PSN and the XBLA sometime this summer. It is developed by WayForward, the guys who brought forth Batman: The Brave and the Bold, Contra 4, and A Boy and His Blob.

The game will be downloadable for around 1200 MS points or $15.00.

In BloodRayne, it will be focussing on a character named Rayne who will be recruited by the Brimstone Society (a legion of vampire hunters) for one last mission to “stop an evil master plot.”

The game itself will be in HD and will offer 15 levels with a number of puzzles, new characters, and multiple acts.

Majesco and WayForward put out a few details:

Weaponry:

  • Rayne’s signature arm blades return
  • Handgun offers quick, ranged knockdowns
  • Gun that prolongs damage over time via a constant beam of light. Also serves as a sun reflector for puzzle solving


Combat:

  • Infection: Enemy vampires bloat and explode when triggered
  • Heel Stomp: Instantly kill enemies after laying them out
  • Drain: Bite and drain your enemy’s blood to restore your health


Puzzles:

  • Blood Seals: Placed on the ground and in front of doors. Need to be drenched in blood to unlock.
  • Grinder Switch: Toss enemies into a bone-mashing grinder to activate
  • Floodlights: Maneuver through a barrage of floodlights aimed to take the Dhampir out. Rayne can also trick vampires into the light to take the heat off of her.
  • Rising Blood Tower: Fill a pit with enemy blood to make the tower rise so Rayne can escape


Enemies:

  • Flying parasites: They swoop in and attack but they can also be infected and blown up for extra blood.
  • Wheeler: A freakish genetic experiment with long, sharp arms for long-range attacks
  • Blood Balloon: A tough, hammer-wielding brute that explodes upon defeat.
  • Wraith: Ninja-like enemies sneak up and phase in and out before your eyes.
  • Elite Guard: The ultimate enemy that is comparable to a vampire Knight with a big sword.
